Most commonly, this issue emerges due to disproportional hormones: low testosterone and high estrogen, for instance. Somewhat similar symptoms can also arise due to a buildup of fat in the breast tissue; we call this pseudo-gynecomastia. Both types of this condition produce painful, rubbery lumps behind the nipples and mostly affect infants, teenagers (particularly during puberty), and men over 50 due to a natural decline in hormones.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Alternative_Causes_Of_Gynecomastia\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Alternative Causes Of Gynecomastia:<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Besides the most common hormonal causes, there can be a few other reasons for this issue that our readers should note before we move on to discussing the details about its solution.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Certain drugs or substances, like alcohol, steroids, or amphetamines.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Conditions like tumors, thyroid issues, and kidney or liver failure.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hypogonadism or low testosterone levels due to advanced age.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Obesity or excessive fat stores (which normally cause pseudo-gynecomastia).<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Does_Gynecomastia_Surgery_Correct_Puffy_Nipples\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Does Gynecomastia Surgery Correct Puffy Nipples<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">?<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Normally, this issue takes care of itself, given some time, particularly for infants and teens. But, in situations when it doesn\u2019t, specialists use a surgical procedure to remove the unwanted glandular or fatty tissue from the breasts. Gynecomastia surgery uses several techniques to correct puffy or enlarged nipples. Here is how they work.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Liposuction\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Liposuction:<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Specialists use simple <a href=\"https:\/\/www.enfieldabudhabi.ae\/en\/cosmetic-surgery\/liposuction\/\">liposuction<\/a> to correct puffy nipples when the root cause behind the issue is fat accumulation. A gentle suction device breaks and extracts the fat to restore the natural shape of the breast tissue without the need for more invasive surgery.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Excision\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Excision:<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is a true surgical technique used when the cause of gynecomastia is an increase in glandular tissue. Making careful incisions around the affected areas, surgeons remove the unwanted mass from the breasts.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Combined_Treatment\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Combined Treatment:<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Oftentimes, the issue is caused by a mixture of fat accumulation and glandular tissue growth. Surgeons have to use both liposuction and excision techniques to remove the extra tissue and relieve the puffiness and pain from the nipples.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Get The Professional Support You Need For Your Health Concerns!<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.enfieldabudhabi.ae\/en\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Enfield Royal Clinic Abu Dhabi<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, you can find all you need for your intimate health concerns.
