Adolescent Gynecomastia

Throughout puberty in boys, shifts in the natural production of testosterone and estrogen can lead to the development of gynecomastia.

Bodybuilder Gynecomastia

The use of anabolic steroids or prohormones by bodybuilders can potentially lead to the development of gynecomastia. If the condition persists, surgical treatment can offer a long-term solution.

Gynecomastia Revision

Revision surgery for gynecomastia may be necessary for various reasons. Sometimes, the initial surgery may have been performed improperly, or complications during healing may have led to unsatisfactory results.

Psuedogynecomastia

It’s possible that male breast enlargement may not be due to excess gland tissue. Instead, it may be caused by an accumulation of excess adipose tissue. In such cases, liposuction can effectively address the issue.

Pseudo Gyno

Puffy Nipple

Puffy nipple, a subtype of gynecomastia, is the enlargement of nipples and the surrounding areolae. Though it may be less pronounced, it can still cause a great deal of distress for those who are affected.

Senior Gynecomastia

At any age, gynecomastia may develop. However, it becomes more common among seniors due to factors such as hormonal shifts, medications, and age-related health conditions.

After Weight Loss

Gynecomastia, particularly noticeable in adult males, may occur after significant weight loss. In such cases, leftover excess skin and tissue can contribute to the appearance of enlarged breasts.
