In the majority of cases, gynecomastia goes on its own and it does not require any treatment. There are, however, surgery options available if the symptoms become severe. Surgery includes liposuction (breast fat is removed without removing the breast gland tissue), and mastectomy (breast gland tissue is removed by making small incisions. This involves less recovery time).

Generally, gynecomastia does not need any medical attention as it usually goes away on its own. The male breasts become normal again within a few months to a couple of years. If it becomes severe, your doctor will prescribe you medicines. There are also surgeries to reduce the size of the breast. Surgery options include: 1) liposuction- this helps in removing the extra fat from the breast but not the breast gland tissue. 2) mastectomy- the surgery is performed to remove the breast gland tissue. Small incisions are made to perform the surgery and it has a less recovery time as well.

Liposuction is considered as a major surgery and there are few risks involved such as bleeding and reaction to anesthesia. Few possible complications include - 1) it may happen that your skin appears bumpy and wavy due to removal of excess fat and unusual sudden healing. 2) it is possible that seromas or temporary pockets of fluid may gather under the skin. It needs to be drained with the help of a needle. 3) temporary numb feeling in the affected area. 4) skin infection is one of the major risks and it could be life threatning in some cases. 5) fluid levels change after being injected and suctioned and can cause chronic kidney, heart and lung ailments.
