Hello, I believe I have really bad Gynecomastia and would like to understand the severity of the situation and solutions if poss

Thank you for your question and for sharing your photographs.  Though nothing replaces an in-person examination it does appear that you are suffering with a higher grade of gynecomastia, with excess glandular tissue and skin.  I do not think that any additional weight loss or working out will correct this.  I would recommend reaching your goal weight, but only surgery will ultimately correct the tissue excess. Be sure to see an ASPS board certified plastic surgeon in consultation.

According to official statistics, 36% of adult young men and 57% of older #adult men in the United States have this medical condition in one of the four grades. About 200,000 to 3 million cases of #gynecomastia are being reported every single year. So if you have #breast #enlargement and you feel you're an exception, please understand that 1 in 3 young adult #men and 1 in 2 older adult men are just like you and have breast enlargement. Several common factors can cause gynecomastia including excessive levels of #estrogen, natural #hormone changes, use of recreational drugs or alcohol, medications and their associated side effects, and, various health conditions. Also, there are different types of #gynecomastia.There are three types of surgical #treatment #options available that treat gynecomastia. Your board-certified plastic surgeon will recommend the type best suited for you. The most important decision to be made before performing any surgical procedure is determining whether you are an ideal #candidate.

Surgery to remove skin and tissue is likely to achieve your best result.Kenneth Hughes, MDBeverly Hills, CA

Hello,Thank you for your question and photos. You do appear to have Gynecomastia and solutions could involve glandular tissue excision and well as repositioning areolas/lift. Gynecomastia affects all shapes and sizes of men- even those who are slim and in great shape. Further weight loss or exercise will not resolve this. I recommend that you book an in-person consultation with a board certified Plastic Surgeon who has plenty of experience in this procedure and find out what your options for treatment are. All the best

Hi there you have a grade 4 gynaecomastia ,with both skin and tissue excesscorrection can either be staged or a single procedure aimed at removing the breast tissues and skin depending on the plastic surgeon you chose.your exercise might not help you morebest of luck

It appears from your pictures that you have true gynecomastia, asymmetric, and with relatively severe droop or ptosis. This represents glandular tissue and probably will change very little with exercise or weight changes. It is not usually a serious medical condition, but if you are concerned about the appearance I would recommend that you seek consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon, as surgery will be necessary to masculine the appearance of your chest.
