Male type breast enlargement is a very common health problem. This type of augmentation can have many different causes. In the treatment of male type breast enlargement, also called gynecomastia, the problem that causes the enlargement must first be found.
Afterwards, with an operation performed by Plastic, Aesthetic and Reconstructive Surgery specialists, the excess fat and/or breast tissue in the breast is removed and the area regains its normal appearance.
In many cases, male pattern breast enlargement does not need any treatment and disappears on its own over time. However, in cases of hypogonadism, cirrhosis or malnutrition, gynecomastia should be treated. Because of drug use, discontinuing the use of drugs or using equivalent drugs can make gynecomastia disappear.
When there is no reason other than hormonal change in adolescents, process follow-up is performed instead of treatment. Growth is monitored by re-evaluation approximately every three or six months. Gynecomastia usually disappears spontaneously within two or three years. However, in cases where it does not heal on its own, causes pain or disturbs the person emotionally, it can be removed with gynecomastia operation. Surgical intervention is also used in cases where both growth and sagging skin tissue are excessive, such as stage 4 gynecomastia.
