Gynecomastia (hypertrophied breast tissue on a male) generally requires some type of excisional surgery for treatment. For men who have lipodystrophy of the chest (too much fat in the chest area), liposuction does work.
However treatment of gynecomastia (male breasts) usually involves a combination of liposuction of the chest and excision or surgical removal of breast tissue. This is typically performed through a small incision at the lower edge of the areola.
There are some cases of more severe forms of gynecomastia present with excess skin which requires more complex incisions to remove not only breast tissue but also the excess skin.
