How Our Surgeons Plan Your Chest Contour
(General surgery)
Gynecomastia correction is a contouring procedure as much as it is an excision — the difference between a flat, natural chest and a visible dent comes down to the surgeon's experience. Every gynecomastia patient at Healic is personally examined, planned and operated on by a senior consultant general or plastic surgeon, never a trainee. Consultations are private, judgment-free and include a clear explanation of your grade, technique, scar placement and expected result. Gynecomastia is the enlargement of male breast tissue caused by a hormonal imbalance between oestrogen and testosterone, certain medicines, obesity or underlying medical conditions. It can cause a soft swelling under the nipple, tenderness, sagging chest shape and significant emotional or social discomfort. Healic offers safe day-care gynecomastia surgery — combining liposuction of excess fat with gland excision through a tiny areolar incision — to give a flat, masculine chest contour with minimal scarring, short downtime and long-lasting results.
Patients commonly visit for enlargement of one or both breasts in males, breast tenderness or pain, firm or rubbery tissue under the nipple. Our general surgery team checks causes such as hormonal imbalance (high oestrogen, low testosterone), puberty-related hormonal changes, obesity increasing fat and oestrogen and explains suitable options including normal gynecomastia, pure glandular gynecomastia, adult gynecomastia, adolescent gynecomastia, asymmetric or unilateral gynecomastia, pseudo gynecomastia, severe gynecomastia with transparent pricing and follow-up support.

Types of Gynecomastia
Understanding the type helps our specialists choose the safest, most effective treatment for your condition.
Normal Gynecomastia
Normal gynecomastia appears as soft, mobile, and usually painless breast tissue enlargement in both breasts. It is common in boys aged 12–15 and men over 65 due to hormonal changes. While benign and often symptom-free, it may cause mild distress. Most cases resolve naturally within one to two years without treatment.
Pure Glandular Gynecomastia
Pure glandular gynecomastia is caused by overgrowth of glandular tissue without significant fat. It accounts for 10–15% of cases and is common in bodybuilders using steroids. It feels as a firm, rubbery mass behind the nipple and may affect one or both breasts. It can cause tenderness, discomfort, and psychological distress.
Adult Gynecomastia
Adult gynecomastia affects up to 70% of men as fat deposits appear in glandular tissue. It results from hormonal imbalances linked to aging, liver or kidney disease, and conditions like hypogonadism or hyperthyroidism. Lifestyle, medications, and tumours in the adrenal, pituitary, or testes can also affect hormone production.
Adolescent Gynecomastia
Adolescent gynecomastia is hereditary and occurs in 30–60% of boys aged 9–14. It is driven by hormonal fluctuations during puberty. In most cases, the breast enlargement resolves naturally as boys reach 18 and adulthood. It is usually temporary and does not require surgery unless it persists or causes significant distress.
Asymmetric or Unilateral Gynecomastia
Asymmetric gynecomastia causes uneven enlargement, making one breast larger than the other. This creates an imbalanced chest appearance where one side looks more prominent or swollen. It can affect confidence and body image. Evaluation is important to rule out underlying causes and plan appropriate treatment for a balanced contour.
Pseudo Gynecomastia
Pseudo-gynecomastia, or false gynecomastia, is caused by excess fat tissue in the chest rather than glandular growth. It is common in overweight men and linked to obesity, poor diet, and sedentary lifestyle. The chest feels soft and doughy rather than firm, and the enlargement is spread across the chest instead of concentrated under the nipple.
Severe Gynecomastia
Severe gynecomastia involves significant breast enlargement with sagging and excess skin. It often affects older men with reduced skin elasticity or those who have lost major weight. The condition goes beyond normal chest contour, causing physical and emotional challenges. Surgery is usually recommended to restore a flatter, more masculine chest shape.

Find Answers to
Your Questions
We are happy to answer every question you have.
1.Which doctor should I consult for gynecomastia?
A senior general surgeon or plastic surgeon trained in gland excision and body contouring. At Healic your consultant performs the whole procedure — assessment, gland excision, VASER contouring and follow-up — so accountability stays with one doctor.
2.What happens at the first consultation?
A private clinical examination to confirm true glandular tissue, grading of your chest, a hormone profile and ultrasound where indicated, a review of medicines or supplements that may be causing it, and a written package estimate. Most consultations finish in under 30 minutes.
3.Will my consultation be confidential?
Completely. Consultations are held in private rooms, records are access-controlled, and no detail is shared with family or employers without your consent.
4.Can I get a second opinion before deciding?
Yes, and we encourage it. Healic operates only when surgery is genuinely indicated — if your gynecomastia is pubertal and likely to resolve, or is pure fat that will respond to weight loss, our surgeons will tell you to wait rather than operate.
5.Is gynecomastia surgery permanent?
Yes. Gynecomastia surgery removes the glandular breast tissue itself, so it does not grow back. Results stay permanent as long as weight is maintained and there is no new hormonal trigger such as steroids or certain medicines.
6.Is gynecomastia surgery covered by insurance?
When gynecomastia is causing pain, tenderness or documented psychological distress, most eligible policies cover it as a medically advised procedure. Healic is empanelled with all major TPAs and provides cashless pre-authorisation, paperwork support and 0% EMI where insurance does not apply.
7.How long is the recovery after male breast reduction?
Gynecomastia surgery is a daycare procedure — you are admitted in the morning and discharged the same evening. Most men return to desk work in 3–5 days, resume light activity in a week and gym training in 4–6 weeks with a compression vest.
8.Will the gynecomastia come back after surgery?
Once the gland tissue is removed, it does not grow back. Maintaining a stable weight and avoiding steroid or hormonal supplements helps preserve the chest contour for life.
9.Will there be a visible scar?
The incision is tiny (3–4 mm) and hidden along the lower border of the areola, so the scar is barely visible once healed.
