Hello Interloper!

Male breast enlargement, 'man boobs' or 'moobs' can be a very embarrassing condition, and although it is not often talked about, there are some estimates that it may affect up to 10% of men to some extent.
True gynaecomastia with the production of firm breast tissue is much rarer. That is why it is very important with all forms of breast enlargement to visit your G.P. first to rule out any possible medical causes.
Surgical treatment options using either liposuction or surgical resection of skin and tissue (or a combination of the two procedures) can effectively and, usually permanently, reduce the enlargement, leaving a flatter male chest.
Remember, however, that you may need to be patient as swelling and scarring following this procedure can take many months to settle down.
