Gynecomastia is the medical term we use to refer to the raised male bust, commonly known as nipples; that is, the overgrowth of breast tissue, and once it occurs, can only be corrected by gynecomastia reduction.
There may be cases such as when the patient has only fat accumulation, liposculpture can be used, a procedure where, by means of a small incision and using suction cannulas, the fat located in the chest is extracted.
When you have to remove glands because in addition to removing the deposits of localized fat it is necessary to remove the glandular tissue that is under the tetilla. This procedure is done through a small incision under the areola. Another case is when it is necessary to reduce the halo because it is larger than we consider aesthetic, it is decided to reduce the diameter of the same to take it to a more balanced size with the rest of the body.
Finally, when there is excess skin in the chest area, for this it is necessary to make the incision around the nipple and in those cases where the excess skin is very large, it may require extending the scar down and sideways, similar to female breast reduction scars.
