Gynecomastia Grades Explained
Gynecomastia is graded by how much gland and fat are present and whether skin excess is involved. Grade helps set expectations for liposuction-only vs excision ± skin tightening.
Common grading overview
- Grade I — mild enlargement without excess skin
- Grade II — moderate enlargement, often mixed fat and gland
- Grade III — marked enlargement with some skin redundancy
- Grade IV — severe enlargement with significant skin excess (female-breast appearance)
