Gynecomastia is a condition characterized by swollen or puffy male breast tissues. It can happen at any age but usually occur in newborns, puberty, and adulthood. It results from hormonal changes, heredity, obesity, or certain drugs. Gynecomastia surgery, also known as male breast reduction, reduces breast size in men. The procedure involves liposuction with or without gland excision, depending on the grade and type of gynecomastia.
