Gynecomastia refers to the excessive development of breast tissue in males, posing psychological distress despite being medically harmless. To conceal this, individuals may avoid certain activities. However, diet and exercise alone cannot address gynecomastia. Dr. Sreekar offers an acclaimed surgical solution to effectively remove enlarged breast tissue. Watch videos below for more information.

Gynecomastia typically emerges during puberty and often continues into adulthood. Additionally, certain medications like antidepressants, hypertension drugs, and anabolic steroids have been associated with its development.
Regardless of the specific origin of gynecomastia, male breast reduction surgery offers a solution. Dr. Sreekar, an expert in gynecomastia surgery, employs both liposuction and sculpting techniques to remove excess tissue. The procedure involves making small liposuction incisions and sculpting with specialized surgical instruments.
removal of the excess breast tissue. These are combined in one procedure called Lipo-Excision. This technique no longer needs postoperative drains or a prolonged recovery. Gynecomastia surgery typically requires 60-90 minutes to complete and is done on a daycare basis.
Grade 1: Small enlargement, but without excess skin over the chest
Grade 2a: Moderate enlargement, without excess skin over the chest
Grade 2b: Moderate enlargement with extra skin over the chest
Grade 3: Marked enlargement with extra skin over the chest.
Grade 1 men can be treated with liposuction alone with very good results. Such surgeries are simple daycare procedures with fast recovery.
Grade 2a men require a procedure called lipo-excision wherein, liposuction of the chest is combined with the removal of the breast tissue. Here the chest is contoured to match a normal chest using liposuction and then the breast tissue is removed using a 2-3cms incision near the areola. Around 90% of the breast tissue is removed to give the chest its normal male contour. Removing 100% of the breast or doing aggressive liposuction can lead to a sunken chest appearance (also called crater deformity). Such complications should be avoided when dealing with gynecomastia.
Grade 2b men also can be treated with lipo-excision alone in >90% cases. Some may require another surgery after about 3-6months for skin tightening to tackle the excess skin.
Grade 3 generally requires skin tightening, though the need for such skin tightening procedures is far lesser in Indians. Dr. Sreekar Harinatha’s modified gynecomastia grading is now widely used and includes skin tone in the assessment of a patient. It was published in the prestigious Brazilian Journal of Plastic Surgery.
After the procedure, you can get back to routine work after 2 days. Following any gynecomastia surgery, pressure garments (Compression garments) are advised to prevent collection in the operating cavity and for better adherence of skin to the chest. All gynecomastia surgeries can be done on a daycare basis with admission for 9-10 hours only. Watch the videos at the bottom of the page for more clarity.
