Gynecomastia is the scientific term for enlarged male breasts. They are often a source of embarrassment for men of all ages and can have damaging effects on self-confidence. Male breast reduction is an ideal way to combat these issues permanently.
The hormone swings of puberty mean that most teenage boys will have some breast enlargement, at some stage. This usually settles without treatment so that the problem affects around one in ten men by early adulthood.
Your surgeon will exclude any drug or medical causes of the swelling before agreeing to operate. Being overweight or drinking too much alcohol can increase the risk of gynecomastia, so it’s worth trying to get into shape and cut down on booze before considering surgical treatment.

Your recovery will depend on the extent of the surgery and your general health and wellbeing.
Smaller operations can be performed under local anaesthetic as a day case, so you won’t need to stay in hospital overnight.
