Can I have cosmetic surgery to treat gynecomastia?
If an underlying condition is found for the gynecomastia it should firstly be treated. However in many cases no underlying condition is found for the breast enlargement or the underlying cause is treated but then the patient is left with enlarged breasts which although not directly harmful to the patients health can have a massive psychological impact on the patients wellbeing. In such cases plastic surgery can be a suitable solution as it can help reduce and reshape the breasts to give then a more pleasing appearance.
