Gynecomastia
The aim of surgery is restoration of normal form and function
Gynecomastia is a common condition that can affect confidence and body image in men. A good surgical approach can create a natural chest contour while keeping scars minimal and recovery smooth." — Dr Gaurav Patodia
Gynecomastia is a condition in which men develop enlargement of breast tissue, leading to a fuller or feminine appearance of the chest. This may occur due to hormonal changes, weight gain, certain medications, or genetic factors. In many individuals the condition does not resolve on its own and may cause physical discomfort or emotional distress.
Gynecomastia surgery is a procedure designed to remove excess glandular tissue and fat from the male chest to create a flatter and more defined contour. The operation may involve liposuction, removal of gland tissue, or a combination of both techniques depending on the individual anatomy.
At Dermacure Clinics in Dhanbad, gynecomastia surgery is performed by Dr Gaurav Patodia with careful attention to chest shape, symmetry, and scar placement. The goal of treatment is to achieve a natural-looking male chest contour while supporting a smooth recovery and return to daily activities.
