Gynecomastia Surgery in Bangalore

Male breast reduction surgery is an increasingly common procedure which has the potential to significantly boost a man’s body confidence and self-esteem. In a world in which society expects men to have firm, masculine chests like movie stars, fatty tissue in the breast area can be a cause of great anxiety and embarrassment.

Often referred to as “man boobs”, gynecomastia is a condition which results in swelling in one or both breasts. Causes can include lack of exercise and poor diet, but there are also hormonal factors that no amount of healthy living can change. Males of all ages, even small children, can develop gynecomastia as a result of hormonal imbalances.

When more oestrogen is produced and there is not enough testosterone to balance it out, the chest naturally takes on a more feminine appearance. Although this is not considered to be a serious medical problem, it can be extremely tough to live with.

Gynecomastia can be a source of embarrassment and low-self esteem for some individuals. Fortunately, this condition is treatable with male breast reduction, also known as gynecomastia surgery.

You will first go through a consultation with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon at Anew Clinic to assess your condition. During the initial consultation, your gynecomastia surgeon will:

  • Evaluate your general health and also go through your health records
  • Perform tests to determine the underlying cause of your gynecomastia

  • Discuss the possible outcomes, together with the benefits and potential risks if any
  • Discuss the available options for anaesthesia etc

During surgery

Gynecomastia surgery in Bangalore has been considered an outpatient procedure, and the patient usually heads back home after the surgery on the same day. Your surgeon will administer local anaesthesia, while intravenous sedation and general anaesthesia are other options on the table.

In most cases, there are two most common methods of conducting gynecomastia surgery: through the liposuction procedure in Bangalore and the excision technique. Your surgeon will advise on the best method to assist you to achieve your results.

After surgery

Your surgeon will use drains to collect excess blood or fluid, which should be used for about a week or so. You may experience mild to moderate pain for the first couple of days, which can be controlled through the prescription painkillers that you’ll get from your doctor.

You may return to work after about a week of rest. However, you will still be banned from any strenuous physical activities that may cause tension or friction on your healing incisions, at least for the next two weeks.

Which doctor should I consult for gynecomastia?

Gynecomastia is a condition characterized by overly big male breasts. Men or boys tend to have ‘man-chest’ which may not sit well with their self-confidence. While you can easily look for treatment from your local doctor or endocrinologist, you’ll most likely get referred to a Plastic Surgeon for immediate and long-lasting results.

Through gynecomastia surgery, you can get rid of the ‘man chest’ and get back with your life a more confident, aesthetically pleasing man.

How is gynecomastia treated?

The best (and most recommended) way to treat gynecomastia is through surgery. Male breast reduction surgery or gynecomastia surgery uses a combination of liposuction and excision techniques to remove fat and glandular tissue.

As the excess fat is removed, the remaining skin is tightened over the chest. The gynecomastia surgeon at Anew Clinic can also reduce or relocate the nipple-areolar complex if needed.

Who is a good candidate for gynecomastia surgery?

A gynecomastia surgery candidate is basically a male adult that is physically healthy and cleared to undergo any invasive surgery. Moreover, the ideal candidate should also have realistic goals and have a clear driving factor on why they seek the surgery.

How long does the surgery take?

Male breast reduction surgery in Bangalore takes about one and a half to two hours. You will need to plan for at least 4 hours of your day when coming for a gynecomastia surgery at Anew Cosmetic Clinic. This is because besides the time it takes for the surgery, you also have to factor in the period taken to prepare you and also for the administration of the anesthesia.

In the first twenty-four hours post surgery, it is recommended for not doing any strenuous activity like operating the heavy machinery. Later on from the second day, you must take brisk walks that can help you in quick recovery.

Will there be scarring after gynecomastia surgery?

There will be no scarring after a male breast reduction surgery, when done by more experienced surgeon. Most scars from the procedure are usually hidden under the areola. Should you combine the surgery with a lift, the scars may appear around the areola, hidden in the pigment changes of your skin

Can ‘man chest’ grow back after gynecomastia surgery?

The results of a male breast reduction surgery are usually long-lasting. However, factors like significant weight gain, steroids, and drug usage may lead to the recurrence of gynecomastia. Dr. Prem anand will take you through some of the things that you can do, including lifestyle changes, to help you maintain the results from your gynecomastia surgery.

How long does it take to recover from gynecomastia surgery?

Most patients are able to go back to their work the very next day following a gynecomastia procedure. Light exercising can be resumed within two weeks and more strenuous physical activities can be done after at least four weeks. Nevertheless, the recovery process is different for everyone and yours might be faster or slower than the indicated timeframe.
