  What Is Gynecomastia?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

  Gynecomastia<\/strong> is the abnormal enlargement of male breast tissue. It is a common and often distressing condition that can be treated effectively with surgery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  In most cases, gynecomastia results from a hormonal imbalance<\/strong>\u2014a relative increase in estrogen (female hormones) or a decrease in testosterone (male hormones).
  Possible causes include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  \n
  • Endocrine disorders (e.g., hyperthyroidism<\/strong>, Addison’s disease<\/strong>)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Liver disease<\/strong> (especially alcoholic cirrhosis)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Tumors<\/strong> of the testicles, lungs, or pituitary gland (e.g., prolactinoma)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Use of certain medications<\/strong>, anabolic steroids, or cannabis<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • General weight gain<\/strong> or obesity<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    Before any surgical intervention, a thorough clinical, hormonal, and radiological evaluation<\/strong> is essential to rule out a medical cause that may be managed non-surgically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Types of Gynecomastia<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    \n
    1. Glandular Gynecomastia<\/strong>: Excess glandular breast tissue<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. Fatty Gynecomastia (Adipomastia)<\/strong>: Purely fat-based enlargement, often associated with overall weight gain<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. Mixed Gynecomastia<\/strong>: A combination of both fat and glandular tissue (most common)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

       Treatment Options<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

       \n
       • Fatty Gynecomastia<\/strong> is treated with liposuction alone<\/strong>. Small cannulas are inserted via tiny incisions (typically two, under 4 mm) to remove fat.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
       • Glandular Gynecomastia<\/strong> requires surgical excision<\/strong> of the gland via a discreet trans-areolar incision<\/strong> (beneath the nipple).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
       • Mixed Gynecomastia<\/strong> combines both techniques: liposuction + gland removal<\/strong> through an incision hidden in the areola.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

         In rare and more severe cases<\/strong>, additional scars may be necessary:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

         \n
         • Periareolar scar<\/strong>: If the areola is very large (round-block technique)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
         • T-shaped or horizontal mastectomy scar<\/strong>: In cases of very large volume or sagging (ptosis)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

           Procedure Details<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

           \n
           • Usually performed under general anesthesia<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
           • In simpler cases, local anesthesia with sedation<\/strong> (neuroleptanalgesia) may be used<\/li>\n\n\n\n
           • Outpatient surgery<\/strong> (same-day discharge) is standard<\/li>\n\n\n\n
           • A special compression garment<\/strong> (Romeo by Medical Z) must be worn day and night for 15 days<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
           • A pre-anesthesia consultation<\/strong> is required at least 48 hours before surgery<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

             Avoid aspirin or similar medications<\/strong> for 10 days before the procedure<\/p>\n\n\n\r\n\r\n
