Male Gynecomastia Frequently Asked Questions
Will gynecomastia go away with diet and exercise?
While men with “fatty” or false gynecomastia can improve their condition through weight loss through diet and exercise, those with glandular gynecomastia will likely not find these methods to be effective. Although diet and exercise may tone your chest, gynecomastia presents with thick glandular tissues in the breasts rather than excess fat. This means that diet and exercise are not effective gynecomastia treatments on their own.
What causes gynecomastia?
Experts are unsure why some men have unbalanced levels of estrogen to androgen. However, specific medications can lead to gynecomastia, as can the use of steroids, especially in the long term.
What options do I have concerning surgery for gynecomastia?
Gynecomastia liposuction is the most successful treatment for this issue. The plastic surgeon will remove the excess tissue and then tighten the remaining skin over the chest. The plastic surgeon may also reposition the areolae and nipples if necessary.
What is gynecomastia surgery recovery like?
The initial recovery period after gynecomastia surgery will likely take around 1-2 weeks. During this time, you should avoid strenuous activity. After this time has elapsed, you should be ready to resume normal activities, such as work and light cardio and lower body exercise, depending on your plastic surgeon’s advice. Chest and upper body workouts should be paused until four weeks after your surgery, at which point you can begin to resume these activities incrementally.
