Gynecomastia

Procedimientos

Price starting at: $2,200 usd

Gynecomastia is a condition that causes enlarged breast tissue in boys or men. It is usually caused by an imbalance of the hormones estrogen and testosterone, which can occur naturally or due to certain medications or health problems. Gynecomastia can affect one or both breasts, sometimes unevenly, and may cause pain, tenderness, or embarrassment. Gynecomastia is not a serious health problem, but it can affect your self-esteem and emotional well-being.

About Gynecomastia

Gynecomastia is a type of surgery that removes excess breast tissue and fat from the chest area. The procedure can be performed using liposuction, which uses a thin tube to suction out the fat, or by excision, which involves cutting away the glandular tissue. Sometimes both methods are used. The surgery can also reshape the nipples and areolas if they are enlarged or stretched. The procedure is usually performed under general anesthesia, which means you will be asleep and will not feel any pain. The procedure can take from one to three hours, depending on the extent of the correction.

Gynecomastia recovery

Recovery from gynecomastia varies depending on the type and extent of the procedure. You may have some swelling, bruising, and discomfort for a few days to weeks after the procedure. You will need to wear a compression garment or bandage to support the healing tissues and reduce swelling. You may also need to take painkillers and antibiotics to prevent infection. You will be advised to avoid strenuous activities, such as heavy lifting or exercise, for about four to six weeks.

You should also avoid tobacco and alcohol, as these can interfere with the healing process. You will have some scarring on your chest, but this will fade over time and become less noticeable. You will be able to see the results of the procedure when the swelling goes away, usually within a few months.

Are you the right candidate for Gynecomastia?

You may be a suitable candidate for gynecomastia surgery if you have enlarged breasts that make you feel self-conscious or uncomfortable. You should also be in good physical and mental health, have realistic expectations, and be willing to follow your surgeon’s instructions. You should not have any medical conditions that could affect the procedure or healing, such as bleeding disorders, heart problems, or diabetes.

You should also not be overweight or obese, as this can increase the risk of complications and affect the outcome of the procedure. You should consult a qualified plastic surgeon to determine if you are a good candidate for gynecomastia surgery.
