Gynecomastia refers to enlarged breast tissue in men. Although all men have a small amount of breast tissue, gynecomastia causes it to grow excessively — typically beneath the nipple-areola complex — creating a fuller or more feminine-appearing chest. True gynecomastia caused by glandular tissue does not resolve with diet or exercise alone. The physical changes can affect confidence and comfort, leading many men to avoid fitted shirts or being shirtless. At Advanced Breast Care Consultants, we offer effective, discreet surgical treatment to restore a flatter, more defined chest.
What Causes Gynecomastia?
Gynecomastia can result from several factors, though most men affected are otherwise completely healthy. Contributing factors include:
Discreet Incisions
Made along the areola border or underarm to avoid visible scarring.
Advanced Technique
VASER ultrasound and liposuction remove excess fat and glandular tissue.
Quick Recovery
Most patients return to work within a few days, with results visible right away.
How Gynecomastia Surgery Works
Surgery is tailored to the type of gynecomastia. Excess fat is removed with liposuction, while denser glandular tissue is excised through a small, hidden incision beneath the areola — avoiding additional scars. If excess skin remains, it may be removed to achieve a flat, masculine contour. A compression garment supports healing for about a week, and results improve steadily over time. Our surgeons focus on a natural, defined result with the least visible scarring possible.
