Adolescent Gynecomastia

Are you a teenager with larger breasts?
Do you think your chest area is too fat?
Does your chest look larger and plumper than your classmates?
Do you go through everyday humiliation because you have moobs?
Are you looking for a solution to get flatter and better chest?

If you think you can relate to the problems mentioned above or if you are suffering from one of these issues, then in medical terms, you have what is called- Adolescent Gynecomastia. Although gynecomastia is a common finding in adolescent men, its psychological impacts are quite serious. Along with making boys self-conscious about their personality and image, this condition develops a certain mental fear that they may get rejected in the backdrop of a social system, which may just mock at their problem than understanding it and providing support.

Considering the fact that the teenage period is a formative period of any child, it is important to deal with the child’s apprehensions with a sensitive approach. During the period of puberty, adolescent men suddenly become very conscious about how their body is developing and in most cases, they try to create an image in their mind, which they constantly want to be associated with. When they realise they have a condition like adolescent gynaecomastia, then instead of looking for a solution they tend to hide the problem.

Gynecomastia surgery along with liposuction can be a cure for gynecomastia in adolescent males; however, there are chances that the symptoms may persist. And hence, it is extremely important to find a skilled surgeon and have a detailed conversation with him/her about your apprehensions. A pre-op consultation provides you the needed peace of mind and you can face the surgery with hassle-free mind.

Persistent adolescent gynecomastia occurs when there is a family history of gynecomastia and thus, such cases take long to suffice the desired results. It is recommended that one should do a thorough research about this condition, do some self-evaluation in order to understand the problem better.
