Many men and frequently young men suffer from gynecomastia which is the development of large breasts in men, resembling women’s breasts. Some of these individuals even have problems with changing clothes at the sports field. In this case, firstly it has to be clarified whether it is caused by hormones. For instance, a hormone-producing tumor that stimulates the growth and development of the mammary gland must be ruled out.
If it is indeed pure fat tissue, microcannular liposuction under tumescent local anesthesia presents the optimal solution for this problem. This type of liposuction can be performed ambulatory without anesthesia and enables excellent results with minimum aftercare effort by wearing compression garments for only a few days. Hence, the individual concerned are finally able to get undressed at the sports field or in front of their partner without any compunction!
