Male breasts, or Gynecomastia , are a frequently diagnosed condition that is seldom spoken of. Gynecomastia—“woman-like breasts” in Greek—is estimated to affect between 40%-60% of men, but it still carries a strong stigma. It is unknown what induces Gynecomastia. Certain drugs have been linked to the condition, but no conclusive findings have ever been established. In some cases, only one breast is affected by the overdevelopment, while sometimes both are. Many men feel highly self-conscious about gynecomastia. However, correction is a relatively simple, same-day procedure that could make a huge difference to your self-esteem. Learn more about gynecomastia and it's treatment at Brigham and Women's Hospital plastic surgery research site.

During your initial consultation, your doctor will analyze how good a prospect you are for Beverly Hills gynecomastia surgery. Ideal candidates can be any age, but will be physically and emotionally fit. Elastic, healthy skin takes best to the body’s new contours after our Beverly Hills gynecomastia surgery. Obese patients are discouraged, as are overweight patients who have not tried simple exercise and dieting to treat their gynecomastia. Patients who use anabolic steroids or marijuana are required to cease use of these substances, which have been shown to affect gynecomastia. Impaired liver function has also been linked to gynecomastia, so heavy drinkers are asked to stop drinking alcohol before treatment. It is important to have your medical history on hand for any procedural consultations, but surgeons requested to treat gynecomastia make a policy of exceptionally thorough medical reviews in order to make sure no previous medications might have triggered the gynecomastia. Some surgeons even perform a mammogram before gynecomastia surgery, both to ensure the breast’s health and to ascertain its structure.

After your condition has been evaluated, you will be assigned a pre-operative patient coordinator. They will schedule your necessary tests and lab work. Now is the time to ask any final questions you might have about gynecomastia or recovery. Smokers must stop smoking four weeks before your Beverly Hills gynecomastia surgery, and should not resume until two weeks after. Certain medications and herbal supplements should not be taken for two weeks prior to gynecomastia surgery, and not resumed until two weeks after.

On the day of your surgery, arrange for a responsible adult to take you to the office. This person should also be reachable by phone while you are in surgery. Our Beverly Hills Gynecomastia surgery duration varies, but in general expect to spend 4-5 hours from check in to check out. Have someone to pick you up, and also on hand to care for you 24 hours after gynecomastia surgery. The gynecomastia surgery itself will consist of light incisions along the areola region, which will allow access to the breast tissue. Depending on how extreme the gynecomastia is, liposuction may also be performed to facilitate treatment. Afterwards, your chest will be wrapped tightly to help the skin adapt to your new contour.

After gynecomastia surgery, you will be given an elastic pressure garment to be worn for 2-3 weeks of recovery. Patients who have undergone gynecomastia surgery describe the initial days after recovery as “uncomfortable.” Your doctor will prescribe pain medication if necessary. It is typical for the chest to be severely bruised and swollen for a week after gynecomastia surgery. After about two weeks, you will return to the surgeon for removal of sutures. Begin light exercise as soon as you feel comfortable but avoid any heavy exertion for at least three weeks. Patients may return to work after one week, but avoid any activities where you might suffer a blow to the chest. As with all surgical scars, sunlight will cause them to darken and become more obvious—avoid direct sun exposure and use a high SPF sunscreen. By three months, the bruising will disappear and you will begin to see your final results!
