ANSWER Gynecomastia
Gynecomastia is enlargement of male glandular tissue that gives the chest a feminine protrusion. It divides into fatty, glandular, and mixed types, each treated differently. ANSWER Plastic Surgery maps the glandular tissue with ultrasound, then combines liposuction and gland excision appropriately for a flat, smooth chest line.
When Gynecomastia is needed
If any of the following apply to you, we recommend a specialist consultation.
A protruding chest
Chest protrusion shows through t-shirts and affects how you dress
A palpable lump
A firm glandular lump under the nipple can be felt, sometimes with pain
Unchanged by exercise
Weight loss and training have not reduced the protrusion
One-sided protrusion
Only one side developed, creating asymmetry
A constrained daily life
You avoid pools and gyms where the chest might show
CUSTOM DESIGN
Type diagnosis decides the method
Gynecomastia divides into fat-dominant, gland-dominant, and mixed types. ANSWER Plastic Surgery diagnoses the glandular extent and fat ratio by palpation and ultrasound, planning liposuction alone or combined gland excision to match your type.
- 1Fatty, glandular, and mixed types diagnosed by palpation and ultrasound
- 2Liposuction and gland excision combined per type
- 3Hormonal and other causes screened when indicated
ANSWER POINT
Areolar-border incision, finished lines
Gland excision proceeds through a small incision at the areolar border so the scar hides along the edge, while surrounding fat is suctioned so the treated area never looks sunken. Preserving the right amount of tissue to prevent a crater deformity under the nipple matters too.
- 1Minimal areolar-border incision limits scar exposure
- 2Gland excision with surrounding liposuction refines the line
- 3Adequate tissue preserved to prevent crater deformity
ANSWER Gynecomastia: How It's Done
Consultation & Type Diagnosis
Palpation and ultrasound establish glandular extent, fat ratio, and asymmetry.
Surgical Design
Suction and excision scope plus incision sites are planned for your type.
Surgery
Liposuction refines the line, with glandular excision through the areolar incision when needed.
Compression & Recovery Care
Compression garments are fitted and swelling and the chest line checked regularly.
Frequently Asked Questions
QCan it come back after surgery?
With the glandular tissue properly removed, regrowth in the same area is considered unlikely, but rapid weight gain or hormonal factors can add fat again. We can arrange relevant tests if a cause is suspected.
QWill the scar be noticeable?
The incision is small and follows the areolar border, typically becoming inconspicuous with time. Liposuction entry points are planned at just a few millimeters as well.
QWhen can I exercise again?
Light daily activity returns within days; chest-loading exercise usually resumes in stages after 2–4 weeks. Compression-garment duration and timing are advised by your individual progress.
