Gynecomastia (Male Breast Reduction)

Gynecomastia (Male Breast Reduction)

Gynecomastia is a medical condition defined by the enlargement of male breasts. This enlargement can be due to various reasons and can affect one or both breasts. It's estimated that about half of the male population experiences this condition at some point. Fortunately, for those seeking a solution, Aestique Plastic Surgery in Warrendale, PA, offers a surgical procedure to address this concern.
