In this episode: • What Gynaecomastia is and common contributing factors? • How Gynaecomastia is assessed clinically? • Non-surgical and surgical treatment considerations • What male chest reduction surgery may involve? • General recovery and healing expectations • The importance of specialist assessment and personalised treatment planning Every patient’s anatomy, goals, and circumstances are unique. A comprehensive consultation with a qualified medical professional is important when considering any surgical procedure. Depending on the cause and severity, there may be non-surgical approaches for Gynaecomastia, although these are not suitable for everyone. Non-Surgical Options May Include: • Addressing underlying causes such as medication use, hormonal imbalance, weight changes, or certain health conditions • Weight management and exercise where excess fatty tissue is contributing • Monitoring mild or temporary cases, particularly during puberty • Medical assessment and investigation where hormonal factors are suspected However, when there is: • Persistent glandular breast tissue • Significant excess tissue or skin • Long-standing Gynaecomastia • Limited improvement with lifestyle changes …surgery may sometimes be considered following specialist assessment. In many cases, an evaluation is important to determine whether the enlargement is: • Fatty tissue • Glandular tissue • Or a combination of both This helps guide appropriate treatment options. For anyone concerned about Gynaecomastia, the best first step is a consultation with a qualified medical professional to understand the underlying cause and discuss suitable management options.
