You are not alone in America if you need Gynecomastia surgery. It has been estimated that more than 50% of all men in our country have this condition of enlarged breasts at some period in their life. Luckily with this plastic surgical procedure the unwanted excessive fatty tissue on your chest can be removed with minimal to almost no scare left behind on a flatter and contoured chest.
The Gynecomastia Surgical Procedure
The Gynecomastia surgery is the removal of the excessive glandular breast tissue that has accumulated over time. This can be accomplished by surgical mastectomy, liposuction mastectomy or liposuction with laser assistances. The preferred and minimal invasive procedure is the liposuction with laser assistances.
You will be placed under general anesthesia then Dr. Taneja will make a small incision under your arm pit or on the edge of the areola (nipple). This will allow access to the breast area with the cannula so the excessive fatty tissue can be removed. When necessary a laser can be used to help sculpt the chest for a better and more natural contoured look.
In some situation when excessive skin is present along with stretch marks it might require their removal or excision by surgical means. This will slightly increase the recovery period.
The recovery from this surgery will require about 3 weeks for all swelling to subside. Most men are able to resume their duties at work with 3 days when they wear compressive garments to hold the skin next to the chest muscles. This will reduce the amount of swelling that will occur.
