What Is Gynecomastia?
Gynecomastia refers to the enlargement of male breast tissue, creating a feminine chest appearance. This condition can affect one or both breasts and may develop during puberty, middle age, or later life. Men from Vasant Vihar, Sushant Lok, and Nirvana Country often feel self-conscious about their chest appearance, avoiding fitted clothing, swimming, and intimate situations.
Professional breast reduction surgery offers a permanent solution to this condition, restoring confidence and a masculine appearance.
Causes of Gynecomastia:
• Hormonal Imbalances: Decreased testosterone or increased estrogen levels
• Medications: Certain drugs, including steroids, anti-anxiety medications, and heart medications
• Health Conditions: Liver disease, kidney failure, or thyroid problems
• Lifestyle Factors: Alcohol consumption, marijuana use, or anabolic steroid use
• Obesity: Excess body fat can increase estrogen production
• Ageing: Natural hormonal changes with age
• Idiopathic: Many cases have no identifiable cause
Gynecomastia vs Pseudogynecomastia: Understanding the Difference
Not all male breast enlargement is true gynecomastia. Understanding the difference helps determine the appropriate treatment approach:
True Gynecomastia:
Excess glandular breast tissue creates firm, rubbery tissue beneath the nipple. This requires surgical removal of glandular tissue along with liposuction. Men from DLF Phase 3, Ardee City, and Sector 50 with true gynecomastia benefit most from comprehensive surgical treatment.
Pseudogynecomastia (False Gynecomastia):
Chest enlargement due to excess fat only, without glandular tissue. This can often be treated with liposuction alone, particularly VASER liposuction. Many overweight men from Golf Course Extension, Palam Vihar, and Defence Colony have this condition, which responds well to fat removal without glandular excision.
Dr. Pradeep Kumar Singh carefully evaluates your chest during consultation to determine which type you have and recommends the most effective treatment approach.
Understanding Gynecomastia Grades
Gynecomastia is classified into grades based on severity. The grade determines the surgical technique required:
Grade 1 (Mild):
Small breast enlargement with no excess skin. Glandular tissue is concentrated around the nipple area. Treatment typically involves liposuction and minor glandular excision through a small periareolar incision. Recovery is quick with minimal scarring. Popular amongst younger men from Haus Khas, MG Road, and Sector 57.
Grade 2 (Moderate):
Moderate breast enlargement extending beyond the areola with no excess skin. Requires a combination of liposuction and glandular tissue removal. The most common grade amongst men seeking treatment. Excellent results with hidden scarring around the areola.
Grade 3 (Moderate to Severe):
Moderate breast enlargement with excess skin. Requires liposuction, glandular removal, and skin excision. May need periareolar or extended incisions. More common in older men or those with significant weight loss. Men from Vasant Kunj, Anand Niketan, and Sector 29 with this grade achieve dramatic improvements.
Grade 4 (Severe):
Significant breast enlargement with substantial excess skin creating a feminine appearance. Requires comprehensive surgery, including tissue removal, liposuction, and significant skin excision. Longer incisions may be necessary, but Dr. Pradeep Kumar Singh places them strategically for minimal visibility. Results are life-changing for men with this severe condition.

Treatment Options: VASER Gynecomastia Surgery
Dr. Pradeep Kumar Singh specialises in VASER (Vibration Amplification of Sound Energy at Resonance) gynecomastia surgery—an advanced technique offering superior results with minimal downtime. This technology is particularly popular amongst professionals from DLF Phase 5, Chanakyapuri, and Green Park who need quick recovery.
How VASER Gynecomastia Surgery Works:
Ultrasound Energy: VASER uses ultrasonic waves to selectively break down fat cells whilst preserving surrounding tissues like nerves and blood vessels.
Precise Fat Removal: Allows targeted fat removal for better chest definition and masculine contour.
Skin Tightening: The ultrasound energy stimulates collagen production, helping skin contract for smoother results.
Glandular Tissue Removal: Combined with direct excision of firm glandular tissue through a small incision around the areola.
Advantages of the VASER Technique:
• Minimal scarring with tiny incisions
• Less bruising and swelling than traditional liposuction
• Faster recovery—most men return to work within 3-5 days
• Better chest definition and contouring
• Natural skin tightening
• Permanent results when combined with stable weight
Men from Magnolias, Sector 82, and Jor Bagh appreciate the scarless appearance and quick return to normal activities offered by VASER gynecomastia surgery at Artemis Hospital.
The Gynecomastia Surgery Procedure
Understanding what to expect helps reduce anxiety and ensures realistic expectations:
Before Surgery:
Comprehensive consultation with Dr. Pradeep Kumar Singh includes chest examination, discussion of goals and expectations, medical history review, and explanation of the surgical approach. Pre-operative blood tests and medical clearance ensure you’re healthy for surgery. Stop smoking and take certain medications as advised.
During Surgery:
Gynecomastia surgery at Artemis Hospital typically takes 1-2 hours under general anaesthesia. The procedure involves liposuction to remove excess fat using VASER technology, glandular tissue excision through a periareolar incision, skin tightening if necessary, and closure with dissolvable sutures for minimal scarring.
Dr. Pradeep Kumar Singh sculpts the chest to create natural, masculine contours with proper definition. Patients from Gulmohar Park and Anand Lok benefit from international-standard operating theatres and experienced anaesthesia teams.
After Surgery:
Most men go home the same day or after an overnight stay. You’ll wear a compression garment for 4-6 weeks to support healing and skin contraction. Mild to moderate discomfort is managed with prescribed medication. Dr. Pradeep Kumar Singh provides detailed post-operative care instructions and regular follow-up appointments.
Recovery Timeline After Gynecomastia Surgery
Understanding recovery helps you plan time off work and activities:
Days 1-3: Rest at home with minimal activity. Expect some swelling, bruising, and tightness. Pain is typically mild and well-controlled with medication. Sleep on your back in an elevated position.
Week 1: Gradual increase in activity. Most men from DLF Camelia, Sector 42, and South Extension return to desk work after 3-5 days. Continue wearing a compression garment. Avoid heavy lifting and strenuous activity.
Weeks 2-4: Swelling decreases significantly. Resume light exercise like walking. Continue avoiding chest exercises and heavy lifting. Most bruising resolves. Results become more apparent.
Months 2-3: Resume all normal activities, including gym and sports. Chest takes on the final masculine contour. Scars continue to fade. Enjoy your new confidence!
Month 6+: Final results visible with complete swelling resolution. Scarsare barely noticeable. Permanent masculine chest appearance achieved. Men from across Gurgaon and Delhi NCR report dramatically improved confidence and quality of life.
Treating Puffy Nipples
Puffy nipples are a common concern amongst men with gynecomastia. This occurs when glandular tissue creates prominence beneath the nipple-areola complex. Even with a relatively flat chest, puffy nipples create a feminine appearance, particularly visible in fitted clothing.
Dr. Pradeep Kumar Singh addresses puffy nipples by removing excess glandular tissue directly beneath the areola through a carefully placed periareolar incision. The areola edge provides natural camouflage, making scars virtually invisible. This technique is particularly popular amongst younger men from Shanti Niketan, M3M Golf Estate, and Golf Course Road who have minimal breast enlargement but prominent nipples.
Results are dramatic—flat, masculine nipples that don’t protrude through clothing. Combined with proper chest definition, this creates a confident, athletic appearance.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. How do I know if I have gynecomastia or just chest fat?
True gynecomastia involves firm, rubbery glandular tissue beneath the nipple that you can feel. Chest fat (pseudogynecomastia) is soft throughout. During consultation, Dr. Pradeep Kumar Singh examines your chest and may order an ultrasound or mammography to confirm the diagnosis. The treatment approach differs based on whether you have glandular tissue, fat, or both.
2. Will gynecomastia surgery leave visible scars?
Dr. Pradeep Kumar Singh uses advanced techniques to minimise scarring. Most incisions are placed around the areola edge, where they’re virtually invisible. VASER liposuction requires only tiny 2-3mm incisions that fade to barely visible marks. With proper scar care, most men have minimal visible scarring that doesn’t affect their confidence or appearance.
3. Can gynecomastia come back after surgery?
Once glandular tissue is removed, it cannot grow back. However, significant weight gain can cause fat accumulation in the chest area. Steroid use or certain medications can also trigger recurrence. Maintaining a stable weight and avoiding triggers ensures permanent results. Dr. Pradeep Kumar Singh provides guidance on preventing recurrence during your consultation.
4. How long before I can exercise after gynecomastia surgery?
Light walking is encouraged immediately. You can resume lower-body exercises after 2 weeks. Full upper body workouts and chest exercises should wait 6-8 weeks to allow complete healing. Dr. Pradeep Kumar Singh provides personalised guidelines based on your surgery extent and your healing progress. Gradual return to exercise prevents complications and ensures optimal results.
5. Am I too old for gynecomastia surgery?
There’s no age limit for gynecomastia surgery. Men in their 20s to 70s successfully undergo the procedure. Dr. Pradeep Kumar Singh evaluates your overall health and medical conditions to ensure you’re a good surgical candidate. Older men may have more skin laxity requiring additional techniques, but excellent results are achievable at any age.
6. What is the difference between liposuction and gynecomastia surgery?
Liposuction removes only fat tissue. Gynecomastia surgery addresses both fat and firm glandular tissue. Most cases require a combination treatment—liposuction for fat removal and direct excision for glandular tissue. Using liposuction alone often leaves residual firmness and puffy nipples. Dr. Pradeep Kumar Singh customises the approach based on your specific anatomy for optimal masculine contours.
Reclaim Your Masculine Confidence
Living with gynecomastia affects more than just physical appearance—it impacts confidence, relationships, and quality of life. Men with this condition often avoid swimming, going shirtless at the gym, or intimate situations. They wear baggy clothing to hide their chest, missing out on the freedom and confidence that comes with a masculine physique.
Gynecomastia surgery offers a permanent solution. With modern techniques like VASER technology, recovery is faster, scarring is minimal, and results are natural-looking. Men from across Gurgaon, South Delhi, and Delhi NCR have transformed their lives through this procedure, regaining the masculine chest contour they deserve.
Dr. Pradeep Kumar Singh understands the emotional impact of gynecomastia and provides compassionate, professional care from consultation through recovery.
