Pseudogynecomastia Surgery

Gynecomastia surgery success rate is a high one. Here is the journey of a patient whose life has changed for the better after his gynecomastia surgery.

Does your son hide under baggy clothes? It could be due to gynecomastia (a medical condition that cause male breasts to enlarge) or puffy nipples!

An increasing number of men over 35 are moving from basic grooming such as eyebrow shaping and skincare, to aesthetic treatments.

Dr Ivan Puah, Medical Director Amaris B. Clinic, believes that body sculpting procedures, which includes gynecomastia surgery, comprises 70% Art & 30% Science.

While hormonal imbalance can happen to just about anyone and hence can be distressing, there are common symptoms that men can look out for.

Gynecomastia causes physical discomfort such as breast tenderness, swelling and changes in the chest shape and appearance. It can make you look feminine too.

Dr Ivan Puah details the various gyno presentations, including its basic anatomy & various gynecomastia grades and how gyno looks like in men of different ages.

Consultation is the most important part of the patient journey. Take time to get to know what the doctor can do for you and ask as many questions as you need.

"Body image dissatisfaction has resulted in men with low self-confidence, anti-social behaviour, etc especially those who are suffering from gynecomastia."
