What is Gynecomastia?

Causes of Gynecomastia

  • Hormonal imbalances (low testosterone or high estrogen levels).
  • Genetics or hereditary factors.
  • Certain medications, such as steroids or antidepressants.
  • Lifestyle factors, including obesity, alcohol consumption, or drug use.
  • Medical conditions affecting hormone production. 

Symptoms of Gynecomastia

  • Swollen or enlarged breast tissue in one or both breasts.
  • Tenderness or discomfort in the chest area.
  • A noticeable imbalance in chest proportions. 

What is Male Breast Reduction?

Male breast reduction, also known as gynecomastia correction surgery, is a cosmetic procedure designed to reduce excess breast tissue and fat to create a flatter, more masculine chest. This surgery improves chest contour, enhancing confidence and comfort. 

Benefits of Male Breast Reduction Surgery

  • Reduces physical discomfort caused by excess tissue.
  • Enhances confidence and self-esteem.

Who is a Good Candidate for Male Breast Reduction? 

You may be a good candidate if:

  • You are in good overall health and near your ideal weight.
  • You have realistic expectations about the results.
  • You have not achieved the desired results through diet or exercise alone. 

The Male Breast Reduction Procedure

Consultation and Preparation 

The process begins with a private consultation, where our experienced plastic surgeons assess your condition, discuss your goals, and create a personalized treatment plan. Pre-operative instructions are provided to prepare you for surgery. 

Surgical Steps 

  1. Anesthesia:
    General anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation is used for your comfort. 
  2. Incision:
    Small incisions are made around the areola or along the natural chest contours. 
  3. Tissue Removal: Excess glandular tissue, fat, and skin are removed using excision, liposuction, or a combination of both.
  4. Chest Contouring: The chest is sculpted to achieve a flatter, more defined appearance.
  5. Closure: Incisions are closed with sutures, and compression garments are applied to support healing. 

Recovery and Aftercare

Most patients can return to light activities within a week and resume full physical activity in 4–6 weeks. Swelling and minor discomfort are normal and subside over time. Detailed aftercare instructions and follow-up appointments ensure a smooth recovery.
