Many men suffer from gynecomastia and may feel that it prevents them from feeling comfortable in their body. At Estetikcentrum in Malmö, we offer gynecomastia surgery as a solution to restore a firmer and more proportionate chest area. Here we explain more about this procedure and why it is so appreciated.

What is gynecomastia and how does it affect the body?

Gynecomastia can affect all men and is a condition where an abnormally large breast tissue has developed and the breasts take on a more feminine appearance. This usually happens gradually over the years and can be caused by a number of different things. Most commonly, however, it is a genetic problem, but certain medications, anabolic steroids, weight loss or weight gain, and hormonal changes can also be the cause.

Can you exercise away gynecomastia?

Can you get a firmer chest area with exercise? Yes, in some cases it may be possible to reduce the volume. However, this mainly applies to those who have been affected due to weight gain. With proper and effective exercise and a good diet plan, you can reduce the problem slightly. However, if the problem is due to hormonal changes or enlarged mammary glands, exercise is not enough to solve it. In these cases, gynecomastia surgery is usually the best option.

Benefits of gynecomastia surgery

By undergoing gynecomastia surgery, you get a permanent result that can really improve both your appearance and your self-confidence. The benefits are numerous and it is not difficult to understand why the procedure is so popular.

• You get a chest area that is more masculine and firm
• Your self-confidence improves
• You become more comfortable in your body
• You get a very long-lasting and permanent result

How it works

At the Estetikcentrum , you will always receive the best care from trained staff and highly skilled surgeons. The operation involves removing excess breast tissue, for example through liposuction or surgical incisions. If the problem is extensive, the skin may also need to be stretched in the breast area to make it firm and smooth. The operation takes between 1-2 hours and you will always have the opportunity to rest in our comfortable rooms. After your procedure, we also make sure to carry out thorough follow-ups to ensure that you have the best possible recovery.
