Gynecomastia
Gynecomastia is commonly related to an unknown hormonal occurrence, but can be caused by steroids, certain medications, weight gain, or hereditary influences. Men who have this condition may feel embarrassed about their body, especially in situations where their chest is exposed. Gynecomastia happens when the chest appears more feminine due to the increase of breast tissue growth. During your consultation, our doctor can review your medical history, current health, and do a physical examination before recommending gynecomastia surgery. For more information about this procedure, reach out to us to reserve an appointment!
When there is an overgrowth of breast tissue, patients may experience tenderness, swelling, and pain in the chest area. In some cases, losing weight prior to the procedure can be helpful. If you are not happy with the size and shape of your chest, but are of healthy and a reasonably normal weight, having this procedure done can be beneficial to your overall physique. After undergoing gynecomastia surgery, patients often report more confidence, physical relief, better posture, improved quality of life, and lasting results. If you have questions about whether gynecomastia surgery could be right for you, contact us now for support!
