Everything you need to know about male breast reduction surgery, including costs and recovery tips so you can make an informed decision.
Gynecomastia is the enlargement of breast tissue in men. It is more common than most people realise and can affect confidence.
Causes
Hormonal imbalance, certain medications and lifestyle factors can all contribute.
Treatment
Surgery removes excess glandular tissue and fat to restore a flatter chest contour. It is usually a day-care procedure.
Recovery
Most men resume work within 5–7 days and see final results once swelling subsides.
