If you are a male who has excessively large breasts, you may be a candidate for a male breast reduction surgery. Gynecomastia is a condition of over-developed or enlarged breasts in men that can occur at any age. Gynecomastia can cause emotional discomfort and impair your self-confidence. Some men may even avoid certain physical activities and intimacy simply to hide their condition.
Gynecomastia is characterized by:
- Excess localized fat
- Excess glandular tissue development
- Sometimes excess breast skin
- Presence unilaterally (one breast) or bilaterally (both breasts)
If you have excess or sagging tissue in your chest area you may benefit from a male breast reduction. This procedure is intended to give you a flatter chest with a more masculine male contour.
