Know more about the Gynecomastia Surgery

Gynecomastia is a condition that causes enlargement of breast tissues in males, which is mainly due to hormonal imbalance. Gynecomastia is common in men and boys at various stages of development. Gynecomastia refers to enlarged glandular tissues rather than fat tissues. In this condition, the breasts swell and become abnormally large. Doing exercise or losing weight will not help in the reduction of breast tissues in gynecomastia. This condition is caused due to excess production of estrogen (female hormone) in males.

Dr. Shilpi Bhadani is one of the best gynecomastia surgeons in Gurgaon as she provides her patients with effective results. Undergoing gynecomastia surgery will help individuals restore self-confidence. The stress caused by this condition limits the daily social activity of the affected individual. This surgery is becoming increasingly popular as it involves minimally invasive techniques, which leads to a decrease in downtime and helps to achieve a more contoured look of chest.

Causes of Gynecomastia:

Gynecomastia is caused by some medications, anabolic steroids, natural or synthetic estrogen hormone derivatives, herbal or growth supplements, alcohol abuse, chronic liver failure, renal failure, and obesity.

Procedure of Gynecomastia:

This procedure called male breast reduction involves liposuction followed by surgical removal that involves the removal of excess glands and helps to achieve a flat chest profile.

In this procedure, anesthesia is administered to comfort the patient before the surgical procedure. Liposuction is performed through small keyholes, and excess breast tissue left after liposuction is removed by a small incision. The scar is well concealed in the areola. In some cases, the liposuction may be sufficient and the areolar incision may not be required. The duration of the procedure may vary from one and a half to three hours. In this surgery, patient’s safety is the highest priority. The pattern of the incision varies depending on the condition and the surgical preference.

Surgery complications:

The most common side effects include bruising, swelling, numbness, soreness, and burning sensation.

After the gynecomastia surgery, a compression garment is required to be worn after the procedure for a period of about four weeks to lessen the discomfort and help the skin to re-drape. Excessive exercise is restricted for a few weeks after the procedure.

To achieve long-lasting results, it is essential to improve dietary habits and incorporate a healthy lifestyle. Results can be maintained for a longer duration with proper exercise and diet.
