Gynecomastia
Overview
Gynecomastia is a medical term that comes from the Greek words for woman-like breasts. It may affect only one breast or both. Though certain drugs and medical problems have been linked with male breast overdevelopment, there is no known cause in the vast majority of cases.
For men who feel conscious about their appearance, breast-reduction surgery can help. The procedure removes fat and or glandular tissue from the breasts and in extreme cases, removes excess skin, resulting in a chest that is flatter, firmer, and better contoured.

Results
Swelling takes about a few weeks to subside. However, the redraping of skin depends upon the elasticity of the skin to retract back, which may take a few months, hence the final result is visible in a year.
