Gynecomastia
Gynecomastia is a condition characterized by the enlargement of breast tissue in men, often resulting in a more feminine chest appearance. This condition can be caused by hormonal imbalances, certain medications, or underlying health issues. Gynecomastia surgery, also known as male breast reduction, is a procedure designed to remove excess breast tissue and restore a flatter, more masculine chest contour.
The surgery is typically performed under general anesthesia and can take between one to two hours, depending on the extent of the tissue to be removed. Recovery time varies, but most patients can return to their normal activities within a week, although strenuous activities should be avoided for a few weeks. The results of gynecomastia surgery can be life-changing, providing increased confidence and comfort in one's appearance.
