Gynecomastia
Gynecomastia is a condition that causes enlargement of male breast tissue due to hormonal imbalances. It can affect one or both sides of the chest and can develop at any stage of life, from infancy to adulthood. There are many possible causes, including hormone fluctuations, certain medications, drug use, obesity, liver conditions, or even genetic factors.
For many men, gynecomastia surgery is a life-changing procedure that brings a huge boost in confidence and emotional well-being. Patients often tell us how much happier and more comfortable they feel in their own skin, with many saying they wish they’d had the procedure years earlier. It’s one of the most effective and rewarding cosmetic procedures for men, and our hundreds of satisfied patients will tell you it’s well worth it.

The Benefits of Gynecomastia Surgery
One of the biggest benefits of gynecomastia surgery is achieving a more sculpted, masculine chest. By removing excess breast tissue and, in some cases, extra skin, the chest becomes flatter and firmer, which can make a big difference to overall body confidence.
Many men also experience physical relief after surgery. Enlarged breast tissue can cause discomfort, particularly during exercise or high-impact activities like running. After the procedure, movement feels much easier, and activities that were once uncomfortable become far more enjoyable.
Another big change is the freedom to wear what you want without feeling self-conscious. Many men avoid fitted clothing or going shirtless because of their chest, but after surgery, they often feel much more confident in their appearance.
The results of gynecomastia surgery are typically long-lasting, especially when paired with a healthy lifestyle. Once the excess tissue is removed, it’s gone for good, so you can enjoy a more sculpted look for years to come.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I Have Gynecomastia or Just Excess Fat?
It’s not always easy to tell the difference between gynecomastia and excess fat, also known as pseudo-gynecomastia. However, there are a few key signs. Gynecomastia is caused by the growth of glandular tissue, which feels firm or rubbery beneath the nipple. It can occur on one or both sides and is sometimes tender or sensitive to touch. Hormonal imbalances or certain medications are usually behind the condition.
Pseudo-gynecomastia, on the other hand, is simply a build-up of fat in the chest area. It’s more common in men who are overweight or have a higher body fat percentage. Unlike true gynecomastia, fat deposits tend to feel softer and don’t have the same firm, glandular texture.
How Much Does Gynecomastia Surgery Cost?
The price of gynecomastia surgery can vary, but it typically falls between £3,000 and £8,000. The total cost depends on factors such as the complexity of the procedure, the surgeon’s expertise, and the location of the clinic. The fee usually includes anaesthesia, surgical facilities, and post-operative care. If the procedure is considered medically necessary, insurance may cover part of the cost, but for cosmetic cases, it is usually a self-funded procedure.
How Safe is Gynecomastia Surgery?
When performed by a qualified, experienced surgeon, gynecomastia surgery is considered very safe. As with any operation, there are potential risks, such as infection, scarring, or temporary changes in nipple sensation, but these complications are uncommon. By carefully following post-surgery instructions, you can ensure a smooth recovery and the best possible outcome.
