Men do get it and they know the importance of looking good. However, some become too obsessive in that pursuit, which can lead to other issues.

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.

Dr. Ivan Puah, Medical Director of Amaris B. Clinic, who has treated a number of gynecomastia patients, observed that the majority of men who came in with complaints of pseudogynecomastia were shown to have mixed gynecomastia after medical assessment.

Men care about their physical appearance no less than women. They tend to stay silent about their negative body image insecurities and rectify these issues themselves by resorting to extreme dieting or engaging in unhealthy weight control behaviours.

Often, gynecomastia is confused with the expected presence of fat tissue, particularly among young men who are overweight. Hence, an accurate diagnosis and conclusion are best left in the hands of a qualified doctor.

While the fat-reducing, body-sculpting treatment is a scientific process, the artistry comes in finding the right doctor who can address your needs and who has the eye to help you achieve the body you desire.

Bad skin and man boobs can really crush a guy’s confidence. But there are solutions.

According to new statistics from the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, more men are going under the knife – specifically for body-related cosmetic surgery such as liposuction and tummy tucks. As a matter of fact, the same report shows that the number of male breast reduction surgeries has increased by around 30 percent over the past five years! We break down the reasons for the rise of male boobs – otherwise known as “moobs”, or gynecomastia – and give you the lowdown on the solutions available.

It’s natural for men to worry if their breasts seem to become enlarged or swollen. They’ll turn to the Internet to search their symptoms, and land on articles on gynecomastia: a condition caused by excessive tissue growth.

Working out might not be enough if you’re suffering from gynecomastia, also known as “man boobs.” Or maybe you want to lose that gut fast, but progress is slow?

Gynecomastia is a real issue for men. In fact, one out of three men suffers from this condition of swollen glandular tissue, which can be physically embarrassing and sometimes painful.

Having enlarged man boobs (male breasts) may be embarrassing and uncomfortable but it is an unfortunate fact of life for many men.
