Gynecomastia Fat

Description

Male chest fat—also known as gynecomastia fat, "man boobs," pseudogynecomastia, or "fatty breasts"—is a common condition where excess fat builds up in the chest area, giving the appearance of enlarged male breasts. Unlike true gynecomastia, which involves glandular tissue growth, this type of chest enlargement is caused by the accumulation of soft, squishy fat and is especially common in men with obesity or after significant weight loss. Many men feel self-conscious about this chest fat, which is also referred to as lipomastia or simply "male breast fat." Fortunately, non-surgical treatments like CoolSculpting (fat freezing) are available in South Korea, offering a safe and effective way to target stubborn chest fat and restore a more masculine chest contour, making Korea a popular destination for those seeking affordable, high-quality body contouring solutions.
