Gynecomastia is a condition in which there is an abnormal enlargement of breast tissue in males. This can result in a feminization of the chest, and can cause psychological distress and embarrassment. Gynecomastia can be caused by hormonal imbalances, certain medications, or genetics.

Male breast surgery, also known as gynecomastia surgery, is a cosmetic surgical procedure that is designed to correct gynecomastia. The procedure involves the removal of excess breast tissue and fat from the chest area, resulting in a flatter, more masculine chest contour.

There are several techniques used in male breast surgery, including liposuction and surgical excision of the breast tissue. The technique used will depend on the individual patient and the severity of the gynecomastia. Recovery time after surgery can vary but typically involves a few weeks of rest and avoiding physical activity.
