Summary

This study looks at two surgical treatments for moderate to severe gynecomastia (enlarged male breasts). One group gets standard laparoscopic surgery to remove breast tissue, while the other gets that plus a lift of the nipple-areola complex. Researchers will compare recovery, breast shape, and patient satisfaction in 200 men over 12 months.
