Surgical gland removal addresses true glandular gynecomastia — enlarged male breast glands that cannot be corrected by liposuction alone. At Art Ethic, five techniques are available ranging from targeted gland excision alone (grade I) to combined liposuction and skin excision for severe cases (grade IV). The surgeon assesses the composition of the gynecomastia at consultation — fat, gland, or both — and selects the approach accordingly. When both glandular and fat components are present, liposuction and gland excision can be performed in the same session.
About this treatment
True glandular gynecomastia involves hypertrophy of the male breast glandular tissue — the ductal and stromal structures that make up the breast parenchyma — rather than simple fat accumulation. Glandular tissue is firm, often tender, and located immediately beneath the nipple-areola complex; unlike fat, it does not respond to liposuction and requires direct surgical excision. Accurate diagnosis (typically confirmed by physical examination and ultrasound)…
At Art Ethic Beauty Clinic, doc. MUDr. Martin Molitor, Ph.D., MBA selects from five surgical approaches based on the Simon classification of gynecomastia severity:
- 1 Grade I / liposuction only — when imaging confirms the enlargement is purely fatty with no significant glandular component; a standalone liposuction session achieves full correction.
