Understanding Gynecomastia
Gynecomastia is a condition characterized by the enlargement of male breast tissue, often caused by hormonal imbalance, genetics, weight fluctuations, or certain medications. It can affect one or both breasts and may cause physical discomfort and psychological distress.
Gynecomastia surgery, also known as male breast reduction, removes excess glandular tissue, fat, and sometimes skin to create a flat, firm, and masculine chest contour.
