The best and the most effective treatment to correct gynecomastia is – liposuction followed by gland excision surgery. In this process, the surgeon will make tiny incisions around the areola. Using a metal cannula, he will drain out the excess amount of fat. After the liposuction is over, the next step is the gland excision surgery. In this procedure, the surgeon extracts the underlying glandular tissue around the breasts through the incision in the nipples. Later, the surgeon closes the incision with dissolvable sutures or stitches. The whole procedure is carried out under the influence of anesthesia which means you won’t be able to feel too much pain.

Pseudogynecomastia is a condition in which the male breast area accumulates excess adipose (fat) tissue behind, around and under the nipples. The common signs of pseudogynecomastia include – bilateral breast-like appearance in the chest and fatty tissues beneath the chest. Some events of pseudogynecomastia may go away on its own but in other cases, it may require surgical intervention to directly remove the excess glandular tissue.
The best way to get rid of enlarged breasts is to undergo gynecomastia surgery. The surgical treat is also known as male breast reduction surgery. It is generally done through a combination of liposuction and gland excision techniques to provide better results.
The insurance coverage for the treatment depends upon the severity of the condition. If gynecomastia is causing physical discomfort and other problems in your regular life, its treatment will be covered under insurance. However, if gynecomastia is in the early stage and you wish to undergo surgery for cosmetic purposes, the expenses may not be covered under insurance.
To date, no drugs have been approved by the FDA for gynecomastia treatment. However, your doctor may recommend certain hormonal medication such as the ones for testosterone replacement.
When a man suffers from gynecomastia, a hard lump can be felt near/ around his areola or nipple area. The lump will feel unusual in touch. In some cases, the lump may feel painful too. This is the easiest way to identify gynecomastia.
No, the condition of gynecomastia does not usually go away with exercise. Exercise can help a man get rid of excess fat in the chest. But the condition of gynecomastia is different and hence exercises do not prove to be effective.
There would be minimal scarring after gynecomastia surgery which is likely to fade within a time frame of 3-6 months. The incision/ excision is usually done near the areola which is why the incisions are not always clearly visible.
There are negligible chances of gynecomastia recurrence after surgery as the glandular tissues are completely removed. Hence, there are negligible chances that the breast tissues will grow again. However, there is still a possibility that chest fat may accumulate that will give you the appearance of man boobs.

The treatment method for gynecomastia is chosen based on its grade or severity. The enlargement of breasts is divided into four grades:
Men often make the condition worse by trying to hide the enlarged breasts by slouching that further aggravates the back pain. If left untreated for a long time, the condition will get worse and the patient may suffer from the spinal deformity.
If you see a doctor while male breasts are still developing, the condition can be controlled and managed by addressing the primary cause of hormonal imbalance. The doctor may further recommend that you take alternative medications or suggest hormone replacement therapy to stop the tissue growth.
Most men get confused between fat deposits in the chest (pseudogynecomastia) area and the condition of gynecomastia. The signs and symptoms of both the conditions are very similar which is why most men confuse one with the other. However, there are also factors that differentiate gynecomastia from chest fat deposits.
Gynecomastia is the condition in which there is an excessive glandular tissue growth in the pectoral region of a man. Pseudogynecomastia is a condition of fat deposits in the pectoral region.
In case of gynecomastia, a hard lump can be felt under the nipple or areola. But in case of chest fat or pseudogynecomastia, no firmness or hard mass is felt under the nipple or areola. Its mass growth feels the same throughout the chest region.
In gynecomastia, the saggy appearance of the breast is minimal. While in case of pseudogynecomastia, the breast may appear to be more saggy.
The condition of fat deposits in the chest can be managed with regular exercises for a healthy diet. But gynecomastia does not disappear with either exercise or change in diet. If a man is diagnosed with gynecomastia, he would require surgical procedures.
Gynecomastia surgery is a safe and risk-free surgical procedure, and if performed under the supervision of a good and experienced cosmetic surgeon, there are almost no complications or major side effects associated with the gynecomastia surgery.
However, like any other surgical procedures, gynecomastia surgery too cause certain minor side effects in some patients, the common ones being:
If there are any chances of risk and complications, there are good chances that your doctor will discuss it all with you prior to the surgery.
Most men seeking gynecomastia treatment are concerned about one particular factor – the scar after the procedure. Depending upon the severity of the condition, the level of incision in gynecomastia surgery may vary, and so do the scars. Typically, the scars involved in gynecomastia surgery are not severe. They are minor as any other common surgical procedures. The scars usually occur near the nipple or the areola and are not always easily visible.
Here are some ways to reduce gynecomastia surgery scars:
It is important to understand that although these tips can heal the scars in most cases, the results may not always be optimum. If you are looking for a solution to remove your scars, the best thing to do is consult with your cosmetic surgeon, evaluate the pros and cons, and get the best suggestions.
