Gynecomastia or male breast is a common condition. “Gynaecomastia” is a Greek word meaning “women-like breasts” afflict 60-70 percent of males sometime during teenage years. Mostly these breasts are relatively small, regress spontaneously in a couple of years and do not become a cause of concern. Enlargement of male breasts happens due to overgrowth of breast glands or due to fat deposit or both.

• Grade 1: Only nipple enlargement and pointiness. This is seen in men with normal BMI (normal weight), and it is because of enlargement of gland tissue under the nipple. Gland excision surgery under local anaesthesia restores the normality of male chest.
• Grade 2: Gland and fat extend all over the pectoral muscle, covering the outlines of muscle. This is the commonest type of Gynecomastia male breast.
• Grade 3: This looks like a well developed female breast, and is difficult to hide even in clothes

A quick run through of what to expect from the procedure:

Gynaecomastia or Male Breast Reduction surgery is usually combined with liposuction of the chest area to contour it evenly and aesthetically. A tumescent solution is injected into the breast and liposuction of the breast is done. Liposuction involves sucking out the fatty tissue in liquid form by hollow metal tubes through small hidden holes. Liposuction alone is usually not successful in completely treating gynaecomastia because the hardened glands and fibrous tissues can not be sucked out. Therefore after liposuction, removal of remaining tissues is done through a semicircular cut along the lower margin of the areola (the dark skin around the nipple). The complete removal of excess tissue is thus done, and skin lies flat on muscle. Stitches are self-absorbable. Excess skin in grade I and II Gynaecomastia usually shrinks but in very large grade III gynecomastia treatment or male breast fat removal is required through extra incisions. After that, a compressive vest is worn 24 hours a day for a month. The recovery time may be less or more depending on individual healing.
