Can you please tell if there only just normal fat or gynaecomastia also when I told my doctor he told me it would go away that I should not worry but I was so I went back and told him that it was gynecomastia since then I have had blood test done so please doctors help me.
Answer: Male Breast Reduction Ideally, gynecomastia surgery is delayed until full development, around age 18 after adolescent hormonal influenced breast development ceases. Sometimes it will resolve to a degree afterwards. Also if your child is overweight, often the breasts will diminish with weight loss once in the normal range. However I have operated on several adolescent males to develop gynecomastia for those stigmatized and traumatized by the size of his breasts in severe cases with good results. Yes it is possible they will grow again and another procedure may be required for best results, Discuss the risk vs benefits with your board certified plastic surgeon that has experience in this age group.

Answer: Age 22. Do I have gynaecomastia? Gynecomastia by definition is prominent breasts in men. True gynecomastia is comprised of hypertrophy of the actual glandular tissue. Most men who we have treated at our institute with prominent breasts have a combination of increased glandular tissue along with excess fat.When the prominent breast is comprised primarily of fat, a liposuction may be the only procedure recommended. In most cases , however, we will excise the gland through an incision in the areola. Although physical exam is the best way to tell how much breast tissue may be present, your photos do show prominence of your breasts. If the findings on photos is verified by a physical exam, then you would be a candidate for lipo and excision.Always search for a surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. Good luck.

Answer: Gynecomastia or fat of the male breasts A physical examination can determine whether or not the unwanted fullness is fat or glandular tissue. Either way, this can be improved by surgery. Visit a plastic surgeon with a lot of experience with gynecomastia. The goal will be to minimize the unwanted fullness with as little visible scarring as possible.
