There are two different surgical intervention approaches commonly used for gynecomastia.

In liposuction, the surgeon removes only the breast fat, but leaves the mammary gland tissue behind.

In mastectomy-type surgical interventions, the mammary gland tissue is completely removed by the surgeon. This surgery is usually done using only small incisions.
