ON a afternoon, Dr. Michelle Copeland, a plastic surgeon whose offices face the urban Museum of Art, clicked her PC’s mouse as pictures of young men’s torsos flickered across the screen. Unlike the traditional Greek statues of Herakles or the bronze discus throwers in the recently rebuilt galleries across the street, the young men in Dr. Copeland’s digital pictures were slightly different : instead of bearing the broad, flat chests of Greek athletes, their pectoral areas believed a fuller, more female shape.

The patients were found to have enlarged male breasts, a condition known as gynecomastia. While it is not a new disorder, more men are looking for treatment for it, and new statistics from the american Society of plastic surgeons show that the majority are adolescent boys.

In 2006, according to the group, almost fourteen thousand boys age 13 to nineteen underwent surgery to cut back the size of their knockers. That represents 70 % of all the male patients who had such surgery last year, and an increase of 21 percent over the year before for that age group.

In a culture that increasingly encourages young boys to be body conscious, demand for chiseled torsos and sculptured pecs is rising, so much so that the number of boys ages 13 to nineteen who had breast reduction surgery last year equals the total number of all males who had the procedure only two years earlier , in 2004.

The main cause is the increase in obesity, according to many cosmetic surgeons who were interviewed. At the same time, there is a new eagerness among pediatricians and cosmetic surgeons to surgically treat enlarged male torpedos. regularly enlarged breasts are simply part of puberty, most frequently caused by the hormonal fluctuation of puberty, according to the nation’s Institutes of Health. But in a society that values chiseled abs and Rafael Nadal biceps, adolescent boys are prepared to relyon surgery to fix problems their bodies might resolve later on their lonesome.

Dr. Roxanne Guy, a cosmetic surgeon in Melbourne, Fla, and the president of the american Society of Plastic Surgeons, said the statistics don’t pick up all the subtleties of why the numbers have increased, but she was sure on one point. ‘It is certain that teen obesity is a big issue,’ she said. ‘And perception of plastic surgical procedures is much greater than it used to be. I find that men generally, and especially younger guys, find it alright to have cosmetic surgery.’

David Zinczenko, the editor in boss of Men’s Health, related that many of his magazine’s readers are worried about having enlarged breasts. ‘The sad thing is that it is a fairly frequently seen problem among young teenagers, which is usually resolved by the latter stages of the testosterone rush that finishes off adolescence,’ he wrote in an email message. ‘But add some fat in there, and a trigger-happy approach to body oddities, and you’ve got kids under the cosmetic knife.’
