Gynecomastia is a benign increase in the male breast volume that can arise due to hypertrophy of the gland, loose skin or a combination of these. This condition is also known as an enlargement of the male breast.
Various factors can lead to gynecomastia in males, including hormonal imbalances, tumors, medicines, and systemic diseases. However, in most gynecomastia cases (more than 90%), the condition is caused by non-pathological factors (idiopathic etiology).
It can manifest itself at any age, although it does most frequently during adolescence, and it can have a detrimental impact on the person's mental health. When it comes to kids, there is a high chance of reversal of the condition with time, but for adult men, surgery is unavoidable. It is essential to have a checkup with an endocrinologist during puberty to rule out the possibility of any form of hormonal issue.
The surgical treatment for gynecomastia varies according to the severity of the condition. It can consist of liposuction, excision of breast glands, skin excision or combination of these.

In liposuction, the incision in the inframammary fold is only three millimeters long and barely noticeable. In cases of more severe gynecomastia that need excess skin removal, there is typically a non noticeable scar along the border of the skin and the areola and rarely longer scars in severe cases
