Gynecomastia (Male Breast)

Gynecomastia is the enlargement of breasts in men. The Latin is female type breast enlargement and it creates the image of the opposite sex in the male as the name suggests. This situation can hurt your self-confidence. Many men in this situation can go out to social life with loose, large pocketed shirts. The summer season is more difficult. Swimming, doing sports, sexual intimacy can make a person unhappy. It is difficult to carry this image of the opposite sex.

Most of the people have no problem with the male hormone. The male organs show their normal development. Waiting may be preferred to surgical treatment in adolescence. Unnecessary waiting affects the psychology of the person very negatively. Although there are different drug treatments, it is not preferred in many patients. Definitive treatment is aesthetic surgery. I think it is the most necessary surgery of aesthetic breast surgery in men and women. Most of the patients are treated with liposuction from a 3-millimeter incision. The remaining scar is too small to be seen. The procedure can be performed with regional anesthesia (local anesthesia) without going to sleep. The patient returns home the same day. Postoperative pain is minimal. There is a little bruising and disappears within two weeks. After a week, the patient can start sports such as jogging. The situation does not recur.
