Male Chest Reduction
(Gynaecomastia)
Sevenoaks
We can now perform male chest reduction at our new clinic in Sevenoaks.
Gynaecomastia is a condition in which males develop enlarged breast tissue, often leading to physical discomfort and self-consciousness. It is commonly caused by hormonal imbalances, obesity, or the use of certain medications. Gynaecomastia can affect males at any age, from infancy to adolescence and adulthood, and is most often treated through surgical intervention.
Male Chest Reduction (Gynaecomastia)
The most common approach to gynaecomastia surgery is liposuction-assisted glandular tissue excision. This technique involves making small incisions around the areola to remove excess fat and glandular tissue. The procedure is typically performed under general anaesthesia and usually takes around an hour to complete.
Gynaecomastia
After surgery, patients may experience mild discomfort, swelling, and bruising, which typically resolve within a few weeks. Most individuals can return to work within a few days and resume normal activities within a few weeks.
In some cases, gynaecomastia is caused by excess glandular tissue that cannot be removed with liposuction alone. These situations may require a more extensive procedure, such as a mastectomy or breast reduction, which involves removing glandular tissue through larger incisions and may result in more noticeable scarring.
It is important to remember that gynaecomastia surgery is not a replacement for healthy lifestyle habits, including regular exercise and a balanced diet. Patients who are overweight or have hormonal imbalances can work with the Well-being department at Uniq to address these underlying factors alongside surgical treatment.
Overall, gynaecomastia surgery is a safe and effective solution for men dealing with enlarged breasts. With proper care and follow-up, patients can achieve a more masculine chest contour and enjoy increased self-confidence.
