Gynecomastia, the condition of over-developed breast, is common in men of any age. It may be the result of hormonal changes, heredity, disease, or the use of certain drugs. Gynecomastia can be more than a physical problem – it can cause emotional discomfort and impair one’s self confidence. Some men may avoid certain physical activities and intimacy simply to hide their condition. It can be surgically treated by removing excess fat, glandular tissue and/or skin. The result is a better proportioned, more masculine contoured upper body and the freedom and self-confidence to lead an active life.
