Chest deformity correction
Sometimes chest deformities are present from birth - either a hollow thorax (pectus excavatum) or a protruding thorax (pectus carinatum).
The purpose of chest deformity correction is to improve the shape of the chest.
Gynecomastia
Breast correction is indicated in men with exaggerated breast development. Gynecomastia is a source of pain, but also of great psychological discomfort. It can cause discomfort in sports activities and clothing, as well as in intimate life
Gynecomastia is not abnormal and appears during certain periods of life, such as old age. It may even be transient and regress spontaneously in newborns and adolescents.
When it starts in adulthood, however, it is more difficult to determine the causes. It can be secondary to taking certain medications, drugs or diseases. It can also be caused by hormonal imbalance, or even cancer in rare cases.
In the context of obesity, we speak of pseudo-gynecomastia or adipomastia, the volume being occupied by fat and not the mammary gland.
Breast correction in men aims to harmonize breast volume while reducing discomfort and pain.
