Gynaecomastia (Male Breast Reduction)

Gynaecomastia surgery is a procedure performed to reduce excess breast tissue in males, creating a flatter, firmer and more traditionally masculine chest contour. The condition, known as Gynecomastia, can result from hormonal changes, genetics, weight fluctuations, or certain medications.

How Is This Procedure Performed?

The procedure may involve liposuction, excision of glandular tissue, or both, and is typically performed under general anaesthesia.

Downtime

Most patients return to light activities within a 1-2, with avoidance of strenuous exercise for several weeks.

Scars

Scars are usually small and placed around the areola or in inconspicuous locations.

Risks and complications

Risks include swelling, asymmetry, scarring, and changes in nipple sensation.
