Gynecomastia Affects All Ethnic Groups in Singapore, Amaris B. Clinic Study Reveals

Amaris B. Clinic releases insights into gynecomastia cases, proving the condition affects men of all races in Singapore.


SINGAPORE – Media OutReach Newswire – 25 March 2025 – Gynecomastia, the development of excess male breast tissue disorder, is far more common than reported, yet it remains a misunderstood medical condition that is surrounded by stigma and misconceptions. One of the biggest myths in Singapore is that this enlarged male breast condition affects a particular racial group more than other ethnic groups.

Ethnicity of gynecomastia patients at Amaris B. Clinic from January 2018 to December 2024
Ethnicity of gynecomastia patients at Amaris B. Clinic from January 2018 to December 2024

Gynecomastia Transcends Beyond Ethnicity
Dr Ivan Puah, Medical Director of Amaris B. Clinic and an MOH-accredited liposuction doctor in Singapore, has spent nearly two decades successfully treating men struggling with gynecomastia, helping them regain confidence through his proprietary gynecomastia surgical approach – 360° GTD technique.

His recent study, analysing 602 patients treated for gynecomastia between January 2018 and December 2024, proved that gynecomastia affects men of all ethnicities in Singapore — debunking stereotypes that single out one racial group.

Dr Ivan Puah emphasised, “There is a common belief in Singapore that gynecomastia is more prevalent in certain ethnic groups, but my experience tells a different truth. I’ve treated patients from all racial backgrounds, proving that this condition isn’t selective — it can happen to any man, regardless of ethnicity.”

The Importance of Proper Diagnosis & Surgery

Not all gynecomastia cases are the same. Some men develop true gynecomastia, which involves excess glandular tissue, while others have mixed gynecomastia, a combination of glandular and fatty tissue. A proper medical diagnosis is crucial in determining the best treatment approach.

Dr Puah’s 360° Glandular Tissue Dissection (360° GTD) technique is less invasive. Unlike traditional gynecomastia surgeries, his technique effectively eliminates glandular tissue while achieving a more sculpted and masculine chest with minimal downtime and well-concealed scarring.

Gynecomastia in Singapore: The Reality Behind the Numbers
The study identified the patient demographics of individuals who sought gynecomastia surgery from Dr Ivan Puah:

  • 42.6% (263 patients) were Chinese
  • 19.7% (117 patients) were Indian
  • 12% (71 patients) were Caucasian
  • 8.9% (53 patients) were Malay

The rising number of Chinese patients seeking gynecomastia surgery at Amaris B. Clinic reflects a growing awareness, not higher susceptibility. Factors such as hormonal imbalances, genetics, obesity, underlying medical conditions, use of anabolic steroids and taking certain types of medications can lead to the development of male breast enlargement in Singapore, not ethnicity.

Why Many Men Suffer in Silence
Gynecomastia can have a devastating impact on self-esteem, causing not only physical discomfort such as pain and breast swelling but also crippling men’s confidence. Despite being common and treatable, many suffer in silence due to shame, misinformation, or fear of judgment.

“Our study proves no ethnicity is immune, and timely care is critical. Gynecomastia is not just a Singaporean issue, but it also transcends ethnicity, affecting men of all races and backgrounds globally. Too often, men think they have to just ‘live with it’ or that this medical condition is something they should be embarrassed about,” Dr Puah shares. “That couldn’t be further from the truth. Seeking expert help is the first step toward a better well-being and reclaiming your confidence.”

For those experiencing symptoms, an in-depth consultation with an experienced doctor in treating gynecomastia is essential for proper diagnosis and personalised treatment. With advancements in surgical techniques and a better understanding of the condition, no man should have to live with gynecomastia in silence.

Since the Ming Dynasty, Jian’ge County has upheld a tradition of conducting handover ceremonies for ancient cypresses along its trade routes during the transition between incoming and outgoing officials.

Located in the northern part of Sichuan, Jian’ge County stands as a pivotal landmark along the ancient, a trade route boasting a history of more than 2,000 years. Renowned for its wealth of transportation relics and cultural landscapes that bear witness to the passage of time, it has earned the title of “a living fossil of ancient land transportation”.

As early as 2015, the ancient Shu Road was already added to the UNESCO World Heritage Tentative List, and has since been nominated as a candidate for both World Natural and Cultural Heritage status.

Within the ancient Shu Road, a stretch of nearly 300 kilometers lies in Guangyuan City, Sichuan Province, renowned as the section with the most abundant relics and historical narratives. Particularly notable is the Cuiyun Corridor in Jian’ge County, which boasts the world’s largest, oldest, and most extensive cluster of ancient trees planted along an historic route. Currently, a total of 7,803 ancient trees remain, including 7,778 ancient cypresses with an average age of 1,050 years. The verdant trees block out sunlight, creating an ethereal atmosphere that makes walking beneath them feel like stepping into a living painting.

In recent years, the ancient Shu Road has gradually emerged as a sought-after destination among both Chinese and foreign tourists thanks to its unique charms. On March 13, 82-year-old American explorer Hope Justman, accompanied by her friends, explored iconic sites such as Jianmen Pass and the Cuiyun Corridor, immersing themselves in the rich culture of the Shu Road and the timeless grandeur of its ancient trees. This marked her 25th journey along this millennia-old historic route.

To better protect the ancient and famous trees, local authorities perform “physical check-up” for them on a regular basis, including inspections for hollowing and decay, cleaning and treating damaged areas of trunks, and performing “minimally invasive surgeries”. Over the past three years, Jian’ge County has successfully restored and rescued 2,478 endangered and weakened ancient cypresses.

On March 15, China officially enacted the Regulations on the Protection of Ancient and Famous Trees, marking the first time the country has established standardized management and protection practices for these trees through administrative legislation. Notably, the Regulations drew inspiration from the ancient cypress handover system of the Cuiyun Corridor along the historic Shu Road.
