Answer: Gynecomastia I appreciate your concern, but physical exam would be helpful. However, your photo demonstrates possibly mild Gynecomastia which is usually treated by liposuction alone. Check out the link below to an article I wrote about Gynecomastia, as you may find it helpful. Seek out a board certified plastic surgeon in your area, good luck!

Answer: Gynecomastia? I think that an exam in person is key. With weight loss, commonly there is skin laxity. This can not be treated with liposuction and based upon how it looks in the photo, I doubt you would need skin removal. If there is fat tissue, lipo or direct excision of the glandular tissue may be reasonable.

Answer: I think I have gynecomastia Congratulations on your weight loss! That is a big achievement and the shed pounds will help you live a more healthy lifestyle. You look really good! Unfortunately, the question of whether you have gynecomastia is difficult to answer by just looking at your photos and not doing an exam. Gynecomastia is the enlargement of the male chest due to a hormone imbalance. When estrogen levels are higher than testosterone levels, than male breast tissue can get firmer and enlarge. It often feels like firm tissue that is behind the nipple and areolar complex. It is usually on both sides. The firm tissue can often feel tender and sore, but rarely causes significant pain.Gynecomastia occurs normally at specific times in a man's life. When male infants are born, a number of them have enlarged breasts because of their mother's estrogen. This usually resolves within the first 1-2 years of life. Then, during puberty, a number of boys develop gynecomastia because their hormone levels are changing. Again, this condition can last 6 months to 2-3 years. Then, as men get older, a number develop the condition in their 50's and 60's. Other causes for gynecomastia can be due to certain medications, steroid use, and marijuana use. Obesity can also cause the condition because fat cells produce estrogen.My recommendation is for you to be seen by a plastic surgeon who does male breast reduction surgery. He or she can do an exam and guide you in the right direction.
