Gynecomastia Surgery (Male Breast Reduction)

Gynecomastia surgery, also known as male breast reduction, removes the excess glandular tissue and fat that make the male chest look enlarged or full, restoring a flatter, firmer and more masculine contour. Enlarged male breasts are common and usually harmless, but for many men the appearance is a lasting source of self-consciousness that does not respond to diet or exercise. When the cause is true breast gland tissue rather than fat alone, surgery is the most reliable and permanent solution. Many men travel abroad for this procedure to reach experienced body-contouring teams, shorter waiting times and the privacy of recovering away from their everyday surroundings.
