What Is Gynecomastia?
Gynecomastia refers to the enlargement of male breasts. During puberty, many boys experience temporary breast growth, firmness, or tenderness. This condition is called physiological gynecomastia and usually resolves spontaneously after puberty.
In adult men, the most common form is idiopathic gynecomastia, which accounts for about 85% of all cases. It occurs without any underlying disease or hormonal disorder.
How Is Gynecomastia Surgery Performed?
- Liposuction: Preferred in about 90% of patients. Excess fatty tissue is removed effectively with liposuction.
- Fibroglandular tissue excision: In cases with firm glandular tissue under the nipple, a small incision is made to remove it along with liposuction.
- Total breast excision: Rarely performed, as it prolongs healing and increases the risk of irregularities.
Scars After Surgery
Small incisions of about 2-3 mm are made under the breast or in the armpit. These fade significantly within 6 months and become barely visible.
Preoperative Evaluation
The success of gynecomastia surgery depends on a careful preoperative evaluation. At the private clinic of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery Specialist Dr. Mahmut Ulvi Kayalı in Antalya, Turkey, the patient's breast structure, degree of enlargement, skin quality, and presence of sagging are thoroughly assessed.
Recovery Process
A compression garment is worn for about 1 month. Most patients return to work and daily life within 5-7 days. The skin and chest contour adapt to the new form within about 6 months.
