What Causes Male Breast Enlargement?
Male breast enlargement may have genetic roots or be caused by external factors. Oversized breasts are common side effects of hormonal imbalances in male infants, and during puberty, and in most cases, the condition resolves on its own. However, some men are not as lucky because they continue to be bothered by man boobs well into their adulthood and until they do something about the condition. Male breast enlargement in adults can be an unwanted side effect of thyroid, kidney, liver, and/or testicle disorders. Being overweight is one of the common causes of the condition. Sometimes epilepsy, ulcer, anti-anxiety and/or anti-depressant drugs, or undergoing chemotherapy can cause man boobs. Abuse of alcohol, marijuana, heroin, methamphetamine, and anabolic steroids can also lead to male breast enlargement. If an underlying medical condition causes man boobs, doctors first try to manage the disease. In all other cases, gynecomastia resolves the problem, usually once and for all. The results are dramatic; take a look at some gynecomastia before-and-after photographs.Why Undergo Gynecomastia NOW?
What is Gynecomastia?
Gynecomastia is a surgical procedure to correct the problem of male breast enlargement. The surgeon removes excess fat, tissues, or both from the breast area during this procedure. Depending on the severity of the condition, the surgeon may make a small incision in the armpit to suck out the fat or make a larger incision around the nipple and also do a chest lift. Male breast reduction surgery is a minimally invasive procedure. It takes around two hours to complete the procedure and is carried out under local or general anesthesia. Generally, it is performed on an outpatient basis, so you can be back home the same day. Unless you put weight back on or your medical condition that had caused your breasts to enlarge recurs, gynecomastia produces permanent results. This is the greatest benefit of a surgical procedure that has minimal downtime, just about a week.Expert NYC Plastic Surgeon Dr. Steinbrech’s Gynecomastia Gallery
