We’ll explain clearly what results you can expect and when
Gynecomastia can result from hormonal imbalances, certain medications, weight gain, aging, or genetic factors. In adolescents, it often resolves naturally within 2 years. For adults with persistent conditions (over 12 months) or if underlying medical causes have been addressed, surgical intervention is typically needed.
During examination, we determine whether enlargement is due to glandular tissue, excess fat, or both. True gynecomastia feels like a firm disc beneath the nipple, while pseudo gynecomastia feels softer. This distinction determines whether you need gland excision, liposuction, or both techniques.
We typically combine direct excision of glandular tissue and liposuction for fat removal. For mild cases with primarily fatty tissue, liposuction alone may suffice. More significant cases require the removal of firmer glandular tissue through small incisions hidden around the areola. We’ll recommend the least invasive approach for your situation.
We place incisions strategically to minimize scarring, typically around the edge of the areola or within natural chest creases. These heal well and become increasingly inconspicuous over time. For liposuction-only cases, tiny incisions are virtually undetectable once healed.
Most return to desk jobs within 3-5 days, with a compression garment worn continuously for 3-4 weeks to minimize swelling. Strenuous exercise, especially upper body workouts, should be avoided for 4-6 weeks. Final results develop over 3-6 months as all swelling resolves.
Results are typically permanent since the removed glandular tissue cannot regrow. However, significant weight gain, steroid use, certain medications, or medical conditions could potentially cause recurrence. Maintaining a stable weight and healthy lifestyle helps ensure long-lasting results.
