Surgery for Gynecomastia

Surgical removal is often the most common way to remove gynaecomastia which is performed in a similar method to surgical breast reduction for female patients. Unless you have a severe case of gynaecomastia then a more minimally invasive method may be an option for you.

Our team of doctors and surgeons have extensive experience in treating gynaecomastia and are able to offer vaser liposuction to men who have a mild form of gynaecomastia and the appearance of soft breast tissue can often be effectively removed by vaser liposuction alone.

Liposuction for Gynecomastia

Vaser Liposuction is performed under a local anaesthetic with the option of sedation if requested. The fat in the chest area is liquefied before it is then removed from the body through a gentle suction process. The result is an overall reduction in fat with minimal scarring and little downtime.

Non-Surgical Gynecomastia Treatment Options

While it can be true that losing weight and excess fat from the chest area can help to improve the appearance of the chest, this is only to some extent and diet and exercise often do not have a huge impact on the breast tissue. There are many claims of pills and home remedies to help cure gynaecomastia but these often come with no medical proof and can often do more harm than good.

Summary

The only way to find out whether gynecomastia surgery or one of the non-surgical options is best for you is to schedule a consultation with one of our doctors or surgeons who will be able to conduct a comprehensive assessment of your condition and tell you what the best treatment is.
