Breasts are considered one of the main attributes of women’s beauty. In men, well-defined pectoral muscles denote character and masculinity. Many men develop breast tissue over their pectoral muscles (Gynecomastia), giving them a feminine appearance that can be uncomfortable when wearing tight shirts or swimwear. This can negatively affect self-esteem.
This abnormal growth of breast tissue is known as gynecomastia, and it can occur at different stages in a man’s life. Gynecomastia, by itself, is not considered a disease nor does it pose a greater risk of breast cancer. It is regarded as an aesthetic issue that affects male self‐esteem.
There are many factors that can foster the development of male breast tissue, including obesity, excessive alcohol consumption, certain medications, hormonal agents such as anabolic steroids, cannabis, and endocrine disorders.
Our rapid-recovery technique allows most patients to return to everyday activities—like office work, driving, and traveling—the day after surgery. Exercise can typically be resumed around the third week.
Neither exercise, diet, weight loss, nor medications can improve gynecomastia. The definitive treatment is surgical removal of the breast tissue. This is performed as an outpatient procedure, without general anesthesia, and often with rapid recovery. When there is a significant excess of skin, advanced reconstructive techniques may be used to achieve a more masculine chest contour.
