To help you understand this medical condition, let’s take a closer look at gynecomastia, and another condition that is often mistaken to be a genuine case of gynecomastia, known as pseudogynecomastia.

Many men are now feeling more comfortable going to aesthetic clinics to look better –or “looksmaxxing” as it has been coined. The Amaris B Clinic team talks us through this trend and what you – or your husband – can consider.
