Types of Gynaecomastia

Unilateral Gynaecomastia

Gynecomastia can be a debilitating illness for males. Although gynecomastia is not medically hazardous, it can have a terrible emotional impact on a man's life. Many men with gynecomastia are anxious, depressed, and embarrassed about their enlarged breasts, and they may avoid certain social activities such as swimming or going to the beach. While the vast majority of gynecomastia patients have bilaterally enlarged male breasts, which means the disorder is present on both sides, a small minority of men experience unilateral gynecomastia. One-sided gynecomastia may appear to be a "better" option, but in reality, the asymmetry is typically more difficult to deal with than having gynecomastia on both sides.

Bilateral Gynaecomastia

Gynecomastia is a benign enlargement of the male breast (typically bilateral, but sometimes unilateral) caused by proliferation of glandular components. Clinically, it is distinguished by the appearance of a rubbery or firm mass radiating concentrically from the nipples. Pseudogynecomastia (lipomastia) is characterized by fat deposition without glandular development and should be distinguished from gynecomastia.

Asymmetric Gynaecomastia

Asymmetric gynecomastia was defined as gynecomastia that met both of the following criteria: on physical examination, the size of the palpable mass beneath the nipple-areolarcomplex was twice as large as the smaller one; and on ultrasonography, the depth of the glandular tissue beneath the nipple-areolar complex was twice as deep as the smaller one.

PAL (Power Assisted Liposuction)
This technique uses a special cannula to create small, rapid vibrations that help break down fat cells and remove fat from your body. Also, this procedure allows the surgeon to control the liposuction process and perform fat removal more precisely.
VASER (Vibrant Amplification Of Sound Energy At Resonance)
VASER Liposuction is the most advanced technique. It helps to craft and reshape the body according to the person dreams. Meanwhile, the energy from the ultrasound is used to melt the fat cells and the fat is removed through a thin cannula tube.
Laser Liposuction
