Brief Answer:
To confirm and if Gynecomastia- Surgery

Detailed Answer:
Hi.
Thanks for your query.

First of all we have to determine whether this is Gynecomastia or just a excess fat deposit as a part of overweight.

Is there a circumscribed lump like feeling on feeling with the fingers? Can you feel a lump like breast other than the fat nearby.

Another way is to get examined by a General Surgeon to confirm whether this is Gynecomastia or not.

True Gynecomastia has only one treatment and this is surgical removal. This is the simplest way. This is a Day-care case.

It will be removed totally without much risks.

Detailed Answer:
Hi.
If you are feeling like a lump / breasts other than the fat nearby, this is Gynecomastia.

There are no medicines and I would advise you NOT to try any from of medicines please.

RISKS :
These are the general risk of anesthesia and surgery like any other minor surgery like bleeding, infection and pain.
In this surgery the risks are very minimum.
Gynecomastia will be removed TOTALLY.

Brief Answer:
General Surgeon, every Surgeon takes care for scar

Detailed Answer:
Very good question.

This operation can be done by the General Surgeon or even the Cosmetic Surgeon. Every Surgeon takes care for a good scar. Scar marks basically depend upon the character of your skin.
(Cosmetic Surgeon is basically a General Surgeon trained in Cosmetic Surgery also but may charge more for his skills).
XXXXXXX is a big city you can consult a few in the Private Practice and those in Govt Medical colleges.
I am in XXXXXXX is a bit far away from XXXXXXX Do you have relatives in Bhopal? If yes you can come to XXXXXXX will operate you.

The costs can be anywhere between 10 to 30 thousand , depends upon the seniority of the Surgeon and the facilities you want to opt in the Hospital like AC Private ward or a general ward.
