BREAST

Many men suffer from visible fat and glandular tissue of the breast.  This change in shape is called gynecomastia and by no means only corpulent men are affected. Due to a genetic predisposition, after taking certain medications or in case of hormonal imbalances (e.g. during puberty), even patients with a slim and athletic physique often suffer from "man boobs", as gynecomastia is often unpleasantly called.


Another common malformation is the funnel chest, i.e. a congenital malformation of the chest. In the case of functionally non-impairing forms of funnel chest, the insertion of a custom-made implant and/or autologous fat transplants can be used here to achieve an optical correction without extensive surgery on the thorax.
