Gynecomastia, also known as man boobs or “female-like” chests in men, is the abnormal enlargement of the male breast. It results from hormonal imbalances (estrogen and testosterone), genetics, obesity, or certain medications. Men with gynecomastia often struggle with body image issues, shying away from social situations, avoiding tight-fitting clothing, or participating in activities like swimming.
Unlike fat deposition from obesity, which responds to exercise and diet, gynecomastia often involves glandular tissue, which typically does not reduce with workouts. Surgery is the most effective and reliable method to correct this condition.
Why Choosing the Right Doctor is Crucial
Male breast reduction surgery or gynecomastia surgery is a specialized cosmetic surgery procedure that requires more than just knowledge of incisions and sutures. Though the operation may seem straightforward, cosmetic surgery demands a sense of artistry, surgical finesse, and medical expertise to get natural results.
The right doctor can:
- Diagnose the type and grade of gynecomastia with accuracy
- Choose the right surgical plan (liposuction, gland excision, or both)
- Minimise scars with the latest surgical techniques
- Ensure safety during anaesthesia and the recovery period
- Deliver natural, symmetrical, and long-lasting results
On the other hand, inexperienced surgeons may not be able to provide the required expertise and precision, resulting in obvious scars, asymmetry, irregular chest wall, or asymmetrical chest pockets, or even may have to do revision surgery in the future.
1. Shobhit Aesthetics — Dr. Shobhit Gupta
Dr. Shobhit Gupta runs Shobhit Aesthetics in Karol Bagh and is presented as an MCh-trained plastic surgeon with a strong focus on cosmetic and reconstructive procedures, including gynecomastia. The clinic emphasizes individualized planning and techniques that combine gland excision with advanced liposuction methods when required — an approach that generally leads to more reliable, long-term chest contouring results for glandular gynecomastia.
2. Aura Aesthetics (Janakpuri) — Dr. Tapeshwar Sehgal
Aura Clinic in Janakpuri lists Dr. Tapeshwar Sehgal (MBBS, MS, DNB/Plastic Surgery) among its specialists. The clinic is well-known locally and convenient for West-Delhi patients. While Aura treats a range of cosmetic issues, it’s important to confirm with them whether gland excision is included in their gynecomastia protocol (some patient reviews indicate mixed results when liposuction alone was used).
3. Rivaya Aesthetic & Plastic Surgery Clinic — Dr. Kushal Monga
Rivaya (Janakpuri/Tilak Nagar area) is led by Dr. Kushal Monga, an aesthetic and plastic surgeon who promotes modern body-contouring techniques. The clinic operates at a neighborhood level but uses social and patient resources to show results — still, verify recent gynecomastia case galleries and technique details during consultation.
4. RD Plastic Surgery Centre — Dr. Yog Raj Handoo
RD Plastic Surgery highlights Dr. Yog Raj Handoo, a veteran plastic surgeon with decades of experience and a specific interest in gynecomastia correction. Very experienced surgeons are a strong choice for complex or advanced cases (high-grade gynecomastia, skin excess, asymmetry), and hospital affiliations usually mean broad support for safety and revisions.
5. Rejuvenaids Clinic — Dr. Neeraj Kumar
Rejuvenaids (Dwarka) lists Dr. Neeraj Kumar, a board-certified plastic surgeon (MBBS, MS, DNB Plastic Surgery) who offers VASER liposuction and male chest contouring services. The clinic positions itself as a one-stop aesthetic centre with a focus on body-contouring procedures; this makes it convenient for Dwarka/South-West Delhi patients. As with all clinics, ask about exact gynecomastia volumes and examples of gland-removal cases.

Recovery is usually quick, with light activities and work possible in 2–3 days and heavier exercises within 3–4 weeks.
