Gynecomastia Surgery

Gynecomastia is the name given to the uncontrolled and disproportionate growth of breast tissues in men. Surgical interventions to these growths are called gynecomastia surgery. This lubrication, which is suitable for women's anatomy and not suitable for men, causes people to have problems in their social lives and to have self-confidence problems.
