Planning Your Gynaecomastia Surgery
Your Gynaecomastia Consultation
During a surgical consultation, a careful medical history is obtained to look for potential causes of this condition. If no reversible medical condition is found, surgical correction may be suggested.
Your Gynaecomastia Surgery
Surgical correction involves a small incision around the lower half of the areola. In order to maintain blood-flow and preserve sensation in the nipple and areola, they remain attached to the pectoral by a thin stalk of tissue throughout this process.
This is followed by a combination of liposuction and direct excision to achieve a natural chest contour, after which the incisions are sutured. The stitches are usually located around the lower half of the areola.
The procedure takes one to four hours, depending on the complexity of the case.
