Gynecomastia

Gynecomastia is the medical term for male breast enlargement. This condition can occur in young boys as well as older men. Various causes exist from drugs, hormone imbalance, and tumors to obesity. The composition of the breast tissue may be primarily glandular, fatty or a combination of both. Some cases of gynecomastia will improve or disappear after puberty. Others will not. Surgical treatment with ultrasonic liposuction and occasional direct excision through small periareolar incision is very effective.
