What is Gynaecomastia surgery?
Chest enlargement can reflect gland tissue, fat, skin excess or a mixture. A clinician should consider medicines, hormones, weight change and other causes before cosmetic surgery. Technique and scar placement depend on which tissues need treatment.
What should you consider before treatment?
Liposuction alone cannot reliably remove firm gland tissue, while significant skin excess may require longer scars. Ask what contour is achievable, where scars will sit and how the nipple position may change.
Risks and recovery
Risks include bleeding, infection, fluid collection, contour irregularity, asymmetry, visible scars, altered sensation and nipple or skin injury. Compression and temporary exercise restrictions are common during recovery.
Questions to ask at a consultation
- Has an underlying cause been considered?
- Will treatment use liposuction, gland excision or both?
- Where will scars be placed?
- How are haematoma and contour problems managed?
