Why NHS may say no to gynecomastia surgeries

We recommend that all our patients see their GP first before they come in for a gynecomatsia surgery consultation.Watch the video below on Youtube where Dr Nurein explains why:

Male breast reductions surgery is not usually available under NHS

"Male breast reduction surgery is not usually available on the NHS. You'll probably need to pay to have it done privately.

In rare cases, the NHS may provide male breast reduction if:

• you've had gynaecomastia for a long time
• it has not responded to other treatments
• it's causing considerable pain or distress"

How patients feel about gynecomastia under NHS

The feedback from our patients is that they struggle to diagnose and treat gynecomastia under NHS. Most of them even recall how hard it was in the first place to go to the consultation and show their condition (which is affecting their life and self-esteem). Our patients have also found it difficult that they haven't been able to get gynecomastia surgery under NHS.

How to get private treatment for gynecomastia

One of the most reliable ways to get treatment for gynecomastia is to approach a private specialist gynecomastia clinic directly. At our clinic, you start with a consultation, which will include your diagnosis and a complete breakdown of the treatment and costs involved.  

At UK Gynecomastia Clinics, we offer a free consultation directly with our surgeon, Dr Hassan Nurein.
