Gynecomastia surgery is a surgical procedure performed to correct abnormal breast enlargement in men. This surgery typically involves the removal of excess breast tissue and sometimes is supplemented by liposuction. The aim of the surgery is to remove the excess fat and glandular tissue that cause the abnormal growth of breast tissue. It is usually performed under local or general anesthesia and requires a short recovery period. After the surgery, patients typically achieve a smaller, smoother, and more masculine appearance of the chest.

Candidates for gynecomastia surgery are generally healthy men with enlarged breasts that do not respond to lifestyle changes. Individuals with good overall health and realistic expectations about the outcomes are typically considered suitable candidates.
The surgical approach may involve liposuction, excision of glandular tissue, or a combination of both. Liposuction is used to remove excess fat, while excision addresses glandular tissue. The specific technique employed depends on the severity of gynecomastia and the individual's anatomy.
Patients may experience some discomfort and mild pain after the surgery, but it is generally manageable with prescribed medications. The level of pain varies among individuals, and most report a tolerable level of discomfort during the recovery period.
Recovery times vary, but most patients can expect to return to normal activities within a week or two. Strenuous exercise and heavy lifting may need to be avoided for a few weeks to ensure proper healing.
Scarring depends on the surgical technique used. In many cases, incisions are strategically placed to minimize visible scarring. Over time, scars tend to fade, and the final results are often well worth the minimal scarring.
The final results of gynecomastia surgery may take several weeks to months to fully manifest as swelling and bruising subside. Patience is crucial, and it's essential to follow post-operative care instructions provided by the surgeon for optimal results.
Compression garments are typically worn for a few weeks post-surgery to help reduce swelling and promote proper healing. Your surgeon will provide specific instructions based on your individual case.
