Gynecomastia can develop for reasons such as genetics, hormonal imbalances, steroid use, certain medications and herbal remedies, marijuana, and health conditions hormone in nature. Here are the following types of Gynecomastia Surgery

Adult Gynecomastia Surgery

Adult Gynecomastia is simply any man 20 years or older who has adult Gynecomastia developed excess breast tissue causing their chest to take on a more feminine appearance than desired. Its an enlargement of breast tissue in males as the result of an imbalance of the hormones in the body, with somewhat of an excess of female hormones called estrogens, when compared to male hormones called androgens. Gynecomastia is common in men and boys at various stages of development and in association with certain medical conditions. True Gynecomastia refers to enlarged glandular tissue rather than fat (adipose) tissue. The presence of fat tissue that appears in the breast area is known as pseudo Gynecomastia.

Asymmetric Gynecomastia Surgery

Breast asymmetry is the condition when both breasts are not equal in size. In men, Gynecomastia can include only one or both breasts. Unilateral Gynecomastia occurs when only one breast is larger due to Gynecomastia, while the other breast is typically normal in both size and shape. Bilateral Asymmetry occurs when Gynecomastia is present in both breasts, although each to a different degree. The amount of glandular tissue can affect the size, shape, and location on the chest wall of the enlarged area, the size of the areolas, and protrusion and diameter of the nipples.
Unequal or unilateral Gynecomastia is not an uncommon condition. It is more significant when there are very noticeable differences between the two breasts. Often in this case, individuals who suffer from extreme unilateral Gynecomastia have experienced severe psychological effects and developed intense social anxiety. The large, and unequal breast may also interfere with developing intimate, personal relationships. Men who develop even mild cases of Gynecomastia can suffer from low self-esteem, as well as depression.

Severe Gynecomastia Surgery

Severe Gynecomastia Surgery is a condition that may occur at any age. In severe cases, male breasts can be as large as a C or D cup when compared to women. Often men with such large breasts are embarrassed, depressed and may be living with limited social exposure. Men with extremely large breasts tend to avoid places and situations where they have to expose their chest, including intimacy with a partner. Additionally, men in this condition may resort to such drastic measures as binding their chests or even wearing a bra. Large male breasts are perceived by some as an indication of a lack of masculinity.
Especially in cases of obesity, this kind of severe Gynecomastia may manifest with excess skin that requires the need for skin excisions that will leave scars after the male breast reduction procedure is performed.
Many men with severe Gynecomastia have Male Breast Ptosis (also known as drooping breasts) where the areola lies below the lower edge of the pectoral chest muscles. This loose skin and lax tissues are results from aging, loss of muscle mass, and weight loss. When there is excess skin, breast liposuction combined with excision of the gland may not be sufficient. Breast skin excision may be necessary, a procedure called “Mastopexy.”

In some cases, a combination of both surgeries may be required to treat Gynecomastia. The process starts with making an incision near the breast area and the excess fat is removed. Thereafter, the incison is closed. You will get amazing result in some time after the surgery.
