What Causes Gynecomastia?

Most cases are not linked to any underlying disease. Common causes include obesity-related fat deposits (pseudogynecomastia), hormonal shifts during puberty, unscientific use of hormonal supplements by bodybuilders and athletes, and in some cases an underlying endocrine condition — which is why Dr. Kumar evaluates each patient individually before recommending treatment.

Treatment Options

  • Liposuction — for cases where excess fat is the primary cause
  • Gland excision — for cases involving excess glandular tissue
  • Combination technique — for mixed fat and glandular enlargement

The procedure is typically done under anesthesia, takes around 60-90 minutes, and most patients resume light activity within 1-2 weeks.

Recovery & Aftercare

  • Compression garment worn for a specified period post-surgery
  • Physical activity and heavy lifting restricted for 2-4 weeks
  • Follow-up visits to monitor healing and remove sutures if needed

Frequently Asked Questions

Is gynecomastia surgery permanent?

Yes — once excess glandular tissue and fat are surgically removed, gynecomastia does not typically recur, provided underlying causes like steroid use are also addressed.

Does gynecomastia surgery leave visible scars?

Dr. Kumar uses scar-minimizing techniques with incisions placed to be as inconspicuous as possible, typically around the areola.
