Gynecomastia, also known as man boobs, is a condition in which the breast glandular tissues present in males start to grow abnormally due to hormonal imbalance. In normal conditions, males have higher levels of testosterone hormone, whereas due to hormonal imbalance, the levels of estrogen start to rise. The high levels of estrogen cause the glandular tissues in males to grow and develop female-like breasts.
Though gynecomastia is not a life-threatening condition, it can be very problematic. It causes physical and mental discomfort in the individual. If you have been diagnosed with gynecomastia and wish to get proper treatment, get in touch with Pristyn Care and undergo advanced Male Breast Reduction Surgery in Thane to get rid of the enlarged breasts.
Treatment
Diagnosis
In most cases, a physical examination of the breast tissues is enough to identify the condition. In addition to examining the breasts, the doctor may also check the genitals and abdomen to look for the signs of hormonal imbalance.
The doctor will ask about the symptoms, medical and drug history, and family history as well. Depending on the symptoms and texture of the breasts, the doctor may recommend further tests including biopsy to rule out the possibility of breast cancer. Other tests may include:
As there are few other conditions that can cause similar symptoms, these tests will help the doctor to identify the condition precisely and its causes.
Procedure
At Pristyn Care, we perform gynecomastia surgery in Thane using the combination of liposuction technique and gland excision. The surgery is performed under local anesthesia. Firstly, an incision of 2-3 mm is made around the nipple and the cannula is inserted into the fat tissues. Then the tissues are broken down and extracted through a suction device. After the removal of fat tissues, the rest of the glandular (breast) tissues are removed safely through excision. After removing all the breast tissues, the incision is closed and it becomes invisible as soon as it heals.
