What is Gynecomastia Surgery?

  Gynecomastia Surgery also known as male breast reduction (reduction mammaplasty) is a surgery that corrects overdeveloped or enlarged male breasts, by reducing them and flattening chest contours. Gynecomastia can be the result of weight gain, heredity, hormonal change, or the use of certain drugs.
