Possibilities: Large male breasts may be a sign of a hormone imbalance, side effect of certain medications, or due to use of marijuana. Causes such as these are treated by cessation of the causative agent or by taking a different medication. If medical reasons for gynecomastia can be ruled out by your primary physician, a plastic surgeon is the best to see for definitive treatment.

Man Boobs!: Gynecomastia (or man boobs) is actually pretty common and can be caused by a number of things. To treat it, you really need to remove not only fatty tissue but also underlying glandular tissue and sometimes skin. Some surgeons will simply liposuction the area which often proves ineffective because nothing is done to remove the glandular tissue.
