This fat, which is specific to women and does not fit the male anatomy, causes men to have problems in bilateral relations and loss of self-confidence in social life. Due to this problem, which can be seen in many fat or thin men, our patients who come to our clinics say that they cannot swim, are afraid to go naked, and even cannot dress as they wish.
For a man, enlarged breasts can be an extremely stressful and embarrassing situation. There are many people who are afraid of having sexual relations to hide their gynecomastia problem and who experience psychological trauma because they are ridiculed during adolescence. Overcoming the problem of gynecomastia, which can be observed in one in every 5 men today, is possible with a simple application. But you should not feel unhappy, thinking that your advancing age and hormones are betraying you. In addition to gynecomastia operations, if you think you are depressed due to anxiety and gynecomastia, we recommend that you plan your treatment without delay.
What Causes Breast Enlargement in Men?
Gynecomastia problem is among the aesthetic problems of our age. The underlying cause of such growth in breast tissue is unhealthy nutrition, uncontrolled use of additives by the food industry and the resulting hormonal changes. Additionally, sedentary lifestyles are thought to trigger breast growth. Other factors that cause breast enlargement in men are medications taken due to health problems. Other causes of gynecomastia include alcohol and drug use, hypogonadism, aging, tumors, hyperthyroidism, kidney and liver failure, and malnutrition that disrupts hormonal balance.
Gynecomastia is a condition with an increased risk of being seen mostly in adolescence or in those over the age of 60, in those who use steroid or androgen-containing supplements for athletic performance, and in those with some chronic diseases.
Can Breast Enlargement in Men Be Prevented?
If such growth has occurred in the breast tissue, exercise and diet will not be beneficial. The fat stored in the area is often stubborn and fixed. However, in order to avoid this situation, it is necessary to pay attention to a healthy diet and exercise schedule in order to maintain hormonal balance. You can consider gynecomastia operations to get rid of this problem that affects men emotionally and psychologically. Non-incision gynecomastia operations are the most comfortable procedures for enlarged breast tissue.
How is Gynecomastia Operation Done?
Before the gynecomastia operation, your doctor will perform a physical examination and examine the existing breast tissue. The size and texture of the tissue developing in the breast is carefully examined. It is evaluated whether there is any nipple discharge or other findings. It is checked whether the patient really has gynecomastia and pseudogynecomastia problems, and if so, a distinction is made between them. Sometimes a test may be requested to evaluate the tissue. The size and whether the existing fat has a nodular structure are checked. At the same time, the presence of any chronic liver disease, thyroid disease or kidney disease is investigated.
As part of Estetik International Health Group, we perform gynecomastia surgeries that we treat without incisions and with minimal swelling and bruising. After the cause of breast enlargement is first investigated, other conditions that cause symptoms similar to gynecomastia are examined. For example, some men and boys have a breast lump that is similar to gynecomastia and is not the same as gynecomastia.
This type of breast growth that develops due to puberty will disappear spontaneously within 1 to 3 years. Although breast cancer is rare in men, it can occur and usually occurs in one breast. In addition, during the examination, it is checked whether there is an infection in the breast tissue called breast abscess (mastitis). Other than these, they are candidates who are suitable for gynecomastia surgery. When it is decided to have an incision-free gynecomastia operation, it is an extremely practical and comfortable procedure.
With the development of technology, instead of the old process of cutting and removing the fatty tissue settled in the breast, we make a much more comfortable application opened with micro holes. In old practices, it could take a very long time for the patient to return to social life and the structure, vessels and cells in the breast tissue could be damaged. Op. Dr.by Bülent Cihantimur, the incision-free gynecomastia operation is performed by removing the fatty tissue through point entries under local anesthesia. The operation is performed practically without damaging the existing structure and internal features of the breast.
