What is Gynecomastia?
Gynecomastia is enlargement of male chest tissue due to gland overgrowth, fat accumulation, or both. It often causes emotional discomfort, clothing hesitation, and reduced confidence.
Surgery treats the root problem by removing gland tissue and contouring excess fat. The goal is not just volume reduction, but a natural masculine chest profile.
Know Your Grade
Treatment planning starts with grade assessment. Higher grades may require more extensive contouring and occasionally skin correction.

Your Procedure Journey
Consultation & Grading
Chest examination identifies true gland, fat distribution, and skin quality. The condition is graded to choose the right correction approach.
Marking & Anesthesia
Treatment zones are marked while standing to preserve natural contour. Local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia is chosen for comfort and safety.
Lipo + Gland Correction
Excess fat is contoured with liposuction and firm gland tissue is removed through a small areolar incision for a flatter masculine chest profile.
Compression & Follow-up
A compression vest is applied immediately. Follow-ups track swelling, scar maturation, and chest definition over the next weeks and months.

Risks & Safety

Temporary Nipple Sensation Changes
Possible (5-10%)How we mitigate: Usually improves over weeks to months as healing progresses.
Seroma / Fluid Collection
Uncommon (1-5%)How we mitigate: Compression and timely follow-up detect and manage this early.
