After workup : You can always wear clothing and upper body athletic stretch garments to help hide gynecomastia, but not until your doctor has ruled out hormonal or medication causes, or possible tumors. Most gynecomastia is idiopathic (no identifiable cause other than puberty and failure to "go away" on its own) or related to obesity. Surgery can create a normal male chest--see an abps-certified plastic surgeon.

Yes, but...: It is okay to “camouflage” the appearance of gynecomastia but only after the area has been evaluated by your physicians. It will be important to rule out other concerns such as breast cancer etc. If symptomatic and/or aesthetically displeasing, surgical correction of gynecomastia can be worthwhile. Best wishes.
