Gynecomastia affects approximately a third of the male population. The condition itself does not propose a serious health threat (unless it’s connected to male breast cancer) but it does have a very strong emotional impact on the patient.
That’s why gynecomastia surgery is a personal and delicate procedure. Our surgeon, Dr Hassan Nurein, will walk you through all the details and what to expect your first consultation.
There are 2 main types of male breast reduction procedures:
The choice of treatment is highly personalised to the patient’s underlying condition (what caused breast enlargement), preference and desired results. In some occasions, a combination of liposuction and excision is needed.
With the liposuction method, the surgeon will remove the excess fat around the breast tissue. The excision method is used to remove the glandular tissue and excess skin.
Sometimes Dr. Nurein uses BodyTite skin tightening and body sculpting for enhanced results.
At our clinic, gynecomastia is an outpatient surgery, which means that you can wake up, come to the clinic to have the procedures done and go back home to sleep in your own bed. This alone makes the experience more comfortable.
One the day of your gynecomastia surgery:
You will be administrated a local anaesthesia. The surgery takes up to 2 hours.
After the procedure, you will have your chest area covered and fitted with a compression vest, whilst you are advised on aftercare instructions.
For your comfort, wear lose clothing on the day.
You will leave the clinic with a compression vest, which you will be required to wear for a bit after the surgery (the exact duration depends on the type of surger you had and Dr. Nurein will advise you on it on the day of the surgery).
Post gynecomastia surgery, you’ll have regular checkups with Dr Nurein. You can expect to fully recover and see the surgery results within 3 months.
