gynecomastia
We call the uncontrolled growth of breast tissue in men as gynecomastia, and the aesthetic interventions that eliminate this problem, the gynecomastia operation.
This lubrication, which is unique to women and does not fit the male anatomy, causes men to have problems in bilateral relations and loss of self-confidence in their social life. Our patients who come to our clinics because of this problem, which can be seen in many obese or thin men, talk about not being able to swim in the sea, being afraid of being naked and even not being able to dress as they want.
For a man, enlarged breasts can be extremely stressful and embarrassing. The number of people who are afraid to enter into bilateral relations to hide their gynecomastia problem, and who experience psychological trauma in adolescence because it is a mockery, is very high. Overcoming the gynecomastia problem, which can be observed in one of every 5 men today, is possible with a simple application. But you should not feel unhappy, considering that your advancing age and hormones have betrayed you. In addition to gynecomastia operations, if you think you are depressed due to anxiety and gynecomastia, we recommend you to plan treatment without delay.
What causes breast enlargement in men?
Gynecomastia is one of the aesthetic problems of our age. Underlying this growth of breast tissue is mostly unhealthy diet, uncontrolled use of additives by the food industry and hormonal changes as a result. In addition, sedentary lifestyles are thought to be a trigger for breast growth. Other factors that cause breast enlargement in men are drugs that are compulsorily used due to health problems. Other causes of gynecomastia include alcohol and drug use, hypogonadism, aging, tumors, hyperthyroidism, kidney and liver failure, and malnutrition that will disrupt hormonal balance.
Gynecomastia is most at risk of being seen in adolescents or those over the age of 60, those who use steroids or androgen-containing supplements for athletic performance, and those with certain chronic diseases.
Can breast enlargement in men be prevented?
If such a growth has occurred in the breast tissue, exercise and diet practices will not benefit. The fat stored in the area is often stubborn and stable. However, in order to prevent this situation, it is necessary to pay attention to a healthy diet and exercise calendar in order to ensure hormonal balance. You can consider gynecomastia operations to get rid of this problem, which affects men emotionally and psychologically. Incisional gynecomastia operations are the most comfortable procedures for enlarged breast tissue.
How is Gynecomastia Operation performed?
Before the gynecomastia operation, your doctor performs a physical examination and examines the existing breast tissue. The size and texture of the tissue developing in the breast is carefully examined. It is evaluated for any nipple discharge or other findings. It is checked whether the patient really has gynecomastia and pseudogynecomastia problems and a distinction is made between them. Sometimes testing may be ordered for tissue evaluation. The size and whether the existing fat is in a nodular structure are checked. At the same time, the presence of any chronic liver disease, thyroid disease or kidney disease is investigated.
