There are options.: Moobs are enlargement of the male breasts, generally referred to as gynecomastia. This can result from increase in the proportion of body fat (obesity) and also as we get older with less muscle mass. It can also be due to a hormone imbalance. Reduction can occur by decrease your body fat by exercising and toning chest wall muscle. Many are also resorting to surgical removal of the area.

No Moobs: Yes, moobs (man boobs) can be removed. For adolescents, moobs may be temporary, so waiting is often recommended. For adults, weight loss may help the obese, but true gynecomastia can occur at any weight and usually only responds to surgery. Options include liposuction, direct excision and skin reduction when necessary. More here: http://www.drmele.com/sanfrancisco-gynecomastia.html
