Male Breast Reduction (Gynecomastia Correction)

Having breasts can be very embarrassing for a man. During puberty, hormonal changes take place in the body (unopposed female hormones or low levels of male hormone) due to which, breast tissue enlarges in some boys. This may disappear in many cases over time. But if it does not, the residual breast tissue and fat together form the male breast. This can very well be removed in an aesthetic manner with liposuction only using certain special instruments. This is termed GYNECOMASTIA or "KEY HOLE MALE BREAST SURGERY". The scars are minimal and fade in time. This is a day care surgery and one can return to work in a couple of days. The results are permanent. Swelling in the operated area takes about three weeks to settle down.

A pressure garment is to be worn for 3 weeks after the Gynecomastia procedure to support the skin during the healing period.
