Gynaecomastia Surgery

Gynaecomastia surgery is often performed to remove the excess tissue that is causing gynaecomastia. There are two options depending on the type of excess tissue you have:

• Liposuction – is performed if you have excess breast fat. Liposuction for treating gynecomastia is typically performed using local or general anaesthetic. It involves a small incision on each side of your chest, the edge of your areola or within your armpit. Through these incisions your cosmetic surgeon will insert a thin tube to loosen the excess fat and remove it using a high-power vacuum and sculpt a new more natural chest contour.
• Male breast reduction – is performed if you have excess breast gland tissue.

Male breast reduction surgery is usually carried out under general anaesthetic. It involves making a cut around your nipple that allows your surgeon to remove the tissue. Cuts may be extended and your nipples repositioned if you have a lot of tissue to remove. The procedure will typically take 90 minutes. Your cosmetic surgeon will take care to place incisions so that the resulting scars are as inconspicuous as possible.

Liposuction and breast reduction surgery can be performed at the same time if you have an excess of both fatty and glandular tissue.

The benefits of gynaecomastia surgery are that it will restore a natural appearance to your chest. With a firmer, flatter shaped chest, men often feel more confident with increased self-esteem.

The cost of your gynaecomastia surgery will depend on the exact procedure you need taking in to account the extent of tissue to be removed.
