GYNECOMASTIA SURGERY | MALE BREAST REDUCTION
Plastic Surgery Dubai | 28 October 2023
Some guys may believe that one or both of their breasts are disproportionately huge. Gynecomastia is a disorder that may result from an imbalance in hormones or from being extremely overweight, as both conditions can raise oestrogen levels and cause breast tissue to swell. Males who have this problem may choose for breast reduction surgery. It can also be used to tighten the skin around the breasts after significant weight loss that has caused the skin to droop in that area. It is not the best option for big men who have large, merely extra-fat breasts.
Gynecomastia, or the benign (non-cancerous) growth of male breast tissue, can be caused by a variety of reasons. Your medication or a hormonal imbalance may be to blame. A contributing factor might be recreational drug usage or alcoholism. I’ll discuss the cause of your gynecomastia with you. In addition to expanding the breast and nipple, gynecomastia can also be uncomfortable and make the nipple sensitive.
Some cases of gynecomastia will get better on their own without any kind of medical help. If it is thought that one of your prescription medications is what caused your gynecomastia, it may go away with the substitution or cessation of that medication. Gynaecomastia can be uncomfortable and unsightly, but it is not dangerous and won’t hurt you if you have it. Once cancer has been ruled out, many men are comfortable with no treatment. Another type of therapy is the administration of drugs. Although they might not cause the breasts to shrink, these medications typically effectively reduce discomfort and sensitivity. Breast surgery is the third available treatment option.
Liposuction
Gynecomastia instances may resolve on their own, without the need for medical intervention. If one of your prescription drugs is suspected of being the culprit behind your gynecomastia, it can go away if you switch to another one or stop using that drug. Gynaecomastia is not harmful and won’t harm you if you have it, yet it can be painful and ugly. Many men are content with no treatment once cancer has been ruled out. The use of medication is another form of treatment. Even though they could not diminish the breasts, these drugs normally work well to lessen discomfort and sensitivity. The third viable therapy is breast surgery.
Removal of gynecomastia
I’ll cut around the nipple to remove the breast tissue during excisional surgery. This might be done concurrently with breast tissue liposuction.
Male breast reduction
It could be necessary to remove additional skin and tissue if the breast is particularly big. It will result in additional scars. The amount of skin that must be removed will determine the extent of scarring.
The dressings can be removed after 7 to 10 days, and you should be able to return to work after one week. For the first three weeks after the surgery, refrain from heavy lifting and vigorous physical activity. In two to three weeks, the majority of males resume their usual schedules. Your visit to the clinic will be scheduled for 7–10 days from then so that the dressings and drain(s) may be removed and the wounds can be checked. You will also be evaluated after your procedure, once the swelling and bruising have completely gone down.
