Gynecomastia is a condition resulting in enlargement of breast tissue in men. The enlargement typically occurs in puberty and may persist as the patient becomes older.

In many cases, the cause is unknown. However, it is important to rule out any medication or medical condition which may be contributing to the gynecomastia.

The procedure involves removal of breast fatty tissue (with liposuction), with or without removal of breast tissue. In very large breasts, a breast lift may also be required to reposition the nipple and remove excess skin.
