It affects 40 - 60 percent of men and can develop in one or both breasts.
Ordinarily the glandular enlargement is of brief duration and not permanent. For men who feel self conscious about their appearance, surgery to remove the breast tissue can help.
Men who have had this problem for a number of years usually try to lose weight in this area or use clothing to cover up.
In most cases there may be slight fat loss but when there is glandular involvement, the problem remains. The surgical procedure involves removing fat or glandular tissue from the breasts resulting in a flatter, firmer and more contoured shape.
An individual assessment by Dr Hertess can establish the degree of concern and advise on the correct treatment.
