Important Questions and Answers about Gynecomastia

How is Gynecomastia surgery different from Liposuction?
Chest Liposuction removes only fat tissue. Male breasts also have tough glandular tissue which does not come out by traditional Liposuction. Gynecomastia surgery utilizes a modified method of Liposuction where modest cuts are made around the areola and at different places in the midsection so that a minor metal tube (cannula) could be inserted for the suction of the greasy tissue.
Does Gynecomastia occur because of eating junk food?
Junk foods do not cause Gynecomastia. The glandular component occurs due to a temporary hormonal imbalance during puberty. Excess weight gain can cause the male breasts to become bigger as the fat component increases.
Is there any medicine for treating moobs?
It is unlikely that already formed male breast tissue will decrease with any non surgical / medical treatment. The surgery for Gynecomastia is purely cosmetic and is meant to improve the appearance and create a normal manly chest.

Male breasts usually have two components - glandular tissue and fat. The fat component can be partially reduced through diet and gym, but the glandular component will not be reduced by any amount of exercises; it can be removed only by surgery.
