Men increasingly turning to surgery to get rid of 'moobs'

Would you your man or (if you are a guy reading this) go under the knife?


Male breast reduction operations have gone up by 80% since last year, new figures showed on Monday, making it the fastest growing sector of the cosmetic surgery industry.

The number of men trying to get rid of their man boobs -- or 'moobs' as they are more popularly referred to -- surged from 323 procedures in 2008 to 581 operations in 2009, according to an audit by the British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons (BAAPS) .
