Do You Really Need Surgery?
Enlarged breasts pose considerable problems to men. Such men are forced to refrain from swimming, sunbathing and other activities that would require them to reveal their chest.
Surgery is the last resort for gynecomastia as it involves several risks.
Male breast reduction involves making an incision at the periphery of the areola and surgically removing the glandular breast tissue. In those who have more fatty breast tissue, this can be accomplished via small stab incisions with Liposuction.
In severe forms of Gynecomastia there is significant excess of sagging breast skin which is removed by several methods; Inverted-T or Peri-Areolar Breast Reduction. It is not infrequent to need subsequent surgery to further reduce the size of the areola and nipple, or to further lift and reduce the hanging breast skin.
So before you make any decision, first make sure there are no underlying causes of gynecomastia that need treating and that any decisions you make about surgery include your doctor (who has no financial gain in all this).
