Gynecomastia: Procedure to correct mammary gland enlargement in men

Gynecomastia is a medical term from the Greek gynaikos (woman) and mastos (chest, breast), which means the enlargement of the mammary gland in men.

It is a benign process that produces a significant increase in the size of the male breast. It affects 10% of men and although it is benign, it can have a strong psychological impact on those who suffer from it.

The procedure removes fat and glandular tissue from the breasts, and in extreme cases, it also removes excess skin, resulting in a flat, firm and well-contoured chest.

It usually requires the placement of a surgical drain.
