4 Ways Men Can Benefit From an AirSculpt Gynecomastia Treatment

Many men experience breast enlargement (gynecomastia) at some point in their lives. This condition affects up to 60% of men, and it is permanent in 10% of them.

Although the cause often remains unclear, this condition's psychological and physical effects are easy to see. AirSculpt Body Contouring offers its proprietary male breast reduction, an effective treatment for gynecomastia fat. We're ready to restore your confidence with male body contouring. 

Gynecomastia AirSculpt® can effectively remove excess fat from the chest without depending on invasive surgical techniques. Men enjoy the following benefits, among others: 

1. Improved Confidence and Mental Health

Gynecomastia often occurs during adolescence and can have profound effects on mental health. Studies have shown psychological and psychosocial effects of male breast augmentation, including depression, anxiety, eating disorders, reduced self-esteem, and body dissatisfaction.

Lifestyle changes often do not help with this condition, and weight loss can sometimes worsen the appearance of gynecomastia. Men with enlarged breasts may avoid certain clothing and activities that require them to show off their breasts, like swimming, going shirtless, or wearing fitted clothing. 

After gynecomastia treatment, men report better quality of life and experience less depression and anxiety. Self-esteem, negative thoughts, embarrassment, and other concerns about the appearance of the breasts may increase immediately after surgery.

2. Eliminate the Painful Symptoms

Male breast reduction can affect more than just mental status. Sometimes, gynecomastia causes painful symptoms, such as breast pain and tenderness, swollen breasts, and nipple tenderness. Enlarged breast tissue can also cause physical discomfort in the back and neck pain from poor posture.

Exercising and wearing clothes that rub the nipples can cause discomfort and exacerbate nipple problems. These symptoms make it difficult to exercise because running and other cardio exercises increase friction between the tissue and nipples.

Gynecomastia treatment with male breast reduction eliminates these physical issues. It allows for better mobility during exercise and daily activities so that you can do all kinds of physical exercises.  

3. Enjoy the New Contour

Teenage boys and young men are often teased about their enlarged breast tissue, which can be referred to as "male breasts." 

They may feel that their breasts do not match their gender and may shy away from activities and social interactions. Gynecomastia treatment removes excess fat, resulting in a flatter, firmer, more sculpted physique that is considered more masculine.

Chances are you'll be less worried about what to wear and will not have to consider whether someone has noticed your excess breast tissue. After surgery, men also typically find they have many more clothing options and can confidently wear fitted or tailored garments.

4. You Can Stand Tall

Excess breast tissue can pull your upper body forward, forming a rounded figure and causing chronic back, shoulder, or neck pain. Women with large breasts face similar symptoms.

 In addition, men may bend over to hide their breast area. After a male breast reduction, you'll have a firmer, contoured chest that helps you stand taller and straighter, radiating confidence and restoring posture.
