What is Gynaecomastia

Gynaecomastia (also spelled gynecomastia) is the benign enlargement of male breast tissue. This condition affects approximately 30% of men at some point in their lives and can occur in one or both breasts. While medically benign in most cases, the psychological and social impact can be significant, affecting self-esteem, body image, and daily activities.

FAQ & Questions.

Here are some Frequently Asked Questions by you, answered by our doctors.

Abnormal and excessive enlargement of male breasts.. This may be distressing to many men because gynecomastia can be referred to as “man boobs.” Most men avoid taking their shirts off and avoid bathing suit season.

There are four types of gynecomastia:

1)True Gynecomastia: True enlargement of male breast glandular tissue.

2)Pseudo-gynecomastia: Excessive fatty breast tissue. Excessive number and size of fat cells or adipocytes is the culprit.

3)Excessive skin of breasts: The problem here is a large excessive envelope of stretched skin. This type of gynecomastia is common after excessive weight loss and may be referred to as “hanging man boobs.”

4)Combination of all of the above: Stretch marks are commonly associated with any or all of the above types of gynecomastia.

Studies have shown a multitude of benefits:

  • Increased bone density
  • Increased muscle tissue
  • Improved skin tone
  • Hair growth
  • Rejuvenation of heart, kidney, lung, and liver function
  • Fewer wrinkles
  • Reverse greying
  • Increased oxygen intake
  • Stronger immune system
  • Improved emotional stability
  • Increased energy levels
  • Heightened mental alertness and memory skills
  • Increased sexual potency
  • An improved overall sense of well-being

In the case of true gynecomastia, the problem is almost always a result of a long lasting hormonal imbalance where the level of female hormone estrogen is higher than it should normally be. With other forms of gynecomastia, hormonal abnormalities may or may not play a role. Obese males, however, usually have a contributing metabolic or hormonal disorder.

Those who are self conscious of their appearance and desire to reduce the size of their breasts can benefit most.

Treatment options: Various procedures may be used to treat gynecomastia, utilizing technology along with traditional techniques. They are as follows:

Zeltiq Coolsculpting:

Using specific applicators, gynaecomastia can be reduced non surgically using by using Coolsculpting to breakdown the fat cells and permanently getting rid of the “Man Boobs”. Read more – Coolsculpting

Fat Melting Injections:

Using injectable substances to target localised fat deposits, fat reduction can be accomplished without the need for extensive surgery. The injections consist of a natural soy bean lecithin and enzymes which are highly effective in dissolving small, stubborn fat deposits that resist diet and exercise. Read more – Mesolipo

What is the goal?

The goal of all the aforementioned procedures is to diminish the “man boob” look and reduce the size of a male breast, along with contour and enhance chest definition.

Usually one to two hours.

A single, safe procedure that reduces bulky breasts and tightens, lifts and firms the skin. The end goal is to enhance the definition of the chest area.

Compliments to Bella a female consultant that I forgot the name. Bella was very attentive and prompt. She was very professional even when dealing with man’s wellness. I had consulted her several times about man’s wellness and she gave the best and yet most detailed advice.The facial consultant too was very friendly and detailed about the many facial treatments. She chose the most suitable and yet affordable treatment for me. Kudos to the both of them

Amazing Results with Stem Cell Treatment at Nexus Aesthetic ClinicI recently had the privilege of experiencing the stem cell treatment at Nexus Aesthetic Clinic in Kuala Lumpur, and I am beyond impressed with the results. From the moment I walked in, the staff made me feel comfortable and welcomed. The clinic itself is modern, clean, and very professional.The stem cell treatment has done wonders for my skin.

The non-invasive nature of the treatment was a huge plus for me, and the minimal downtime meant I could continue with my daily activities without interruption.What stood out the most was the personalized care I received. The team took the time to understand my concerns and tailored the treatment to suit my specific needs. I felt confident and well-informed throughout the entire process.If you’re looking for advanced, effective, and non-surgical aesthetic treatments in Kuala Lumpur, I highly recommend Nexus Aesthetic Clinic. Their stem cell therapy has truly exceeded my expectations, and I can’t wait to see even more results as time goes on.Thank you, Nexus Aesthetic Clinic, for helping me achieve the glowing, youthful skin I’ve always wanted!

Really had a great experience with this clinic. Was having a work conference here and decided to treat myself to an acne scar treatment. Due to work, I couldn’t afford the long downtime of the laser thus they recommended me doing Subsicion and some injectables. I’ve got to say I’ve never felt so calm being treated by Doctors. Dr Ash is truly skilful. Her team from front desk to consultations were superb and I’m definitely flying again to do a second treatment in future.
