Gynecomastia

Gynecomastia, aka man boobs, is a common condition in which excess fatty tissue collects in the chest. Fortunately, male breasts can be corrected with a simple surgical procedure at Harley Street Breast Clinic.

 

What are the signs of gynecomastia?

 

  • Enlarged male breasts (one breast or both)
  • Excess breast tissue resistant to diet and exercise
  • Distress, embarrassment, and lack of confidence
  • Difficulty fitting into clothes
  • Interferes with intimate relationships

 

How is gynecomastia caused?

The most common causes of gynaecomastia include:

 

  • Certain medications for prostate issues
  • Obesity
  • Testicular problems
  • Hormonal imbalances
  • Anabolic steroids
  • Genetics

 

If health and lifestyle is to blame for the condition, these aspects should be improved before surgery is considered.

 

Gynaecomastia surgery: what are the benefits?

 

  • Restored body confidence
  • Fast and simple surgery
  • A masculine, contoured chest
  • Improved quality of life
  • You will fit into clothes better

 

Is it right for me?

To have male breast reduction, you must be in good health and at a healthy weight. You won’t be able to smoke before or after the surgery as it prevents recovery.

Your consultation at our breast surgery on Harley Street will determine if you’re a suitable candidate for male breast reduction. Your medical history will be recorded and your chest examined.

Young adolescents may be suitable for the surgery, but might need further treatment in the case of continued growth.

 

What happens before gynaecomastia surgery?

Your breast surgeon in Harley Street will explain what you can expect from gynecomastia surgery, and how you should prepare for it. You will also be informed of the possible risks and complications of the procedure.

 

What happens during surgery?

Gynecomastia treatment is performed under general anaesthetic and takes an hour and a half.

Your breast surgeon in Harley Street may use liposuction to remove excess fatty tissue in the chest. Excision may also be used to remove excess skin. Depending on your treatment plan, the areola may also be reduced and the nipple repositioned. Your surgeon will remodel your breast to create a masculine and nicely contoured chest.

 

What will the scarring look like?

Your breast surgeon will make the incisions as discreet as possible. Where the incisions will be made depends on your individual case. This will be explained at your consultation. Generally, scarring from male breast reduction is very minimal.

 

How much does gynecomastia surgery cost?

Please get in touch with our clinic to find out the price of gynaecomastia surgery.
