Gynecomastia

A precise, privacy-respecting surgical solution.

Gynecomastia

Duration: 1–2 hours — local or general anaesthesia depending on case

Stay: same-day

Back to work: 5–7 days

Before surgery

Clinical assessment plus hormone panels (testosterone, estradiol, prolactin). We classify the tissue as glandular, fatty, or mixed — each type has a specific technique.

The day of surgery

Fatty → liposuction only. Glandular → tiny periareolar incision with gland excision. Mixed → both.

After surgery

The compression vest for 4–6 weeks is essential. Follow-ups at 1 week, 1 month, and 3 months. All medical information remains strictly confidential.

  • Not by itself. If the underlying cause is medication/hormonal and continues, it can. We run hormone panels pre-op.
