The Gynecomastia Surgery Process
Initial Consultation
Your journey begins with a detailed consultation. Our surgeons will assess your condition, discuss your medical history, and understand your aesthetic goals. We will explain the procedure, potential risks, and expected results so you can make an informed decision.
Pre-Operative Preparations
Before the surgery, you will receive comprehensive pre-operative instructions. These may include guidelines on diet, medication, and lifestyle changes to optimize your surgery and recovery.
The Surgical Procedure
Gynecomastia surgery is typically performed under general anesthesia. Depending on the severity of your condition, the procedure may involve:
- Excision: Removal of glandular tissue and excess skin.
- Liposuction: Removal of excess fat deposits through small incisions using a thin tube (cannula).
- Combination: Utilizing both excision and liposuction techniques for the best results.
The procedure usually takes one to two hours, and you can return home the same day.
Post-Operative Care
Post-operative care is crucial for a smooth recovery and optimal results. We provide detailed instructions on managing pain, caring for incisions, and resuming activities. Regular follow-up appointments keep your healing progress on track and promptly address any concerns.

Ideal candidates are healthy men who have persistent breast enlargement despite diet and exercise efforts. A consultation with our surgeons will determine if you are a suitable candidate.
