Gynecomastia surgery, which addresses male breast enlargement, is typically performed by a cosmetic surgeon (plastic surgeon). General surgeons may also perform this surgery, but plastic surgeons are often preferred due to their expertise in cosmetic and reconstructive procedures

i was wondering if gynecomastia surgery is available at aiims or safdarjung hospital and which one would be better for this procedure

Both AIIMS (All India Institute of Medical Sciences) and Safdarjung Hospital offer gynecomastia surgery. However, private hospitals are generally considered better for this procedure due to factors like hygiene, individual patient care, and pre/post-surgery attention. While both hospitals have skilled surgeons, private hospitals often offer a more personalized and comfortable experience.
