What is Male Breast Reduction?
Male Breast Reduction, also known as Gynecomastia, is a condition in which a man's chest swells like a woman's. The size and shape vary from person to person, some have a serious bulge where brassiere is needed to cover and some have just one being irregular. The condition is mainly caused by some abnormalities present in the hormones but it can be fixed.
How It Works
At our affiliated clinic, pseudo gynecomastia will be the treatment method in which VASER liposuction will be performed on pseudo-feminized breasts. By removing fat attached to the chest by liposuction, it will be finished into a chest plate that is tightened like a man. In addition, because the liposuction is performed from the armpit, the wound will not be noticeable.
Male Breast Reduction Procedure
1. Consultation and examination will be done
2. Local anesthesia will be given
3. VASER Liposuction: An incision will be made for about 5 mm on the underarm to avoid visible scars
4. The excessive mammary gland will be removed / excess fat will be sucked out
5. End of treatment

FAQ

A1: Slight stiffness and sore will be experienced.
Q2: What are the signs of gynecomastia?
A2: Signs vary from a small amount of extra tissue around the nipples to more prominent breasts. It can affect one or both breasts. Sometimes, the breast tissue can be tender or painful, but this isn’t always the case.
Q3: Are there any non-invasive treatments for gynecomastia?
A3: Losing weight can help overweight men, though it doesn't necessarily cure gynecomastia. But for men that are thin, surgery is the only option for reducing gynecomastia.
Q4: Are the results permanent?
A4: There are some rare cases that fats/tissues reoccur after the treatment, so a careful preoperative assessment should be done to discuss the conditions prior to the treatment.
