Overview
Gynecomastia (guy-nuh-koh-MAS-tee-uh) is an increase in the amount of breast gland tissue in boys or men, caused by an imbalance of the hormone’s estrogen and testosterone. Gynecomastia can affect one or both breasts, sometimes unevenly. Pseudo gynecomastia refers to an increase in fat but not glandular tissue in male breasts. Newborns, boys going through puberty and older men may develop gynecomastia as a result of normal changes in hormone levels, though other causes also exist. Generally, gynecomastia isn’t a serious problem, but it can be tough to cope with the condition. Men and boys with gynecomastia sometimes have pain in their breasts and may feel embarrassed. Gynecomastia may go away on its own. If it persists, medication or surgery may help.

Purpose of Gynecomastia Surgery
Gynecomastia surgery is an elective, cosmetic procedure intended to reduce the size and improve the appearance of overdeveloped breast tissue in men. Unlike surgery intended to treat breast cancer, gynecomastia surgery only removes the tissue necessary to produce the look that’s desired by the patient.

If you’re self-conscious about your chest, gynecomastia surgery can boost your self-confidence when going shirtless. It may also make some physical activities more comfortable if the enlarged tissue was causing unpleasant bouncing, rubbing, or chafing.

Ideal Candidate for Gynecomastia Surgery
Following are the criteria for being an ideal candidate for Gynecomastia surgery:

Men who are suffering from Gynecomastia. (Primary and secondary)
Men who are physically healthy and fit.
Men who are non-smokers.
Men who have realistic expectations from this surgery.
Young patients are best suited for this surgery as their skin has proper elasticity.


What to Expect on the Day of Surgery?
Most patients are put under general anesthesia for gynecomastia surgery, but a local anesthetic plus oral sedation is possible in some cases. Depending on the details of your operation, follow your surgeon’s instructions to prepare properly and experience and safe and speedy recovery.

Before the Surgery
Arrive at your appointment for gynecomastia surgery on time to avoid any delays in your procedure. You’ll be given a hospital gown to change into and the nurse or the healthcare provider will check your vitals.

If you’re having general anesthesia, an anesthesiologist will visit you and review what’s going to happen. You may have to sign some final paperwork and ask the office staff any last-minute questions before the procedure.

During the Surgery
General anesthesia affects the whole body, so you won’t feel anything once it takes effect. If your healthcare provider deems it appropriate for you to be awake for the surgery, you should still be sedated enough to have a pain-free procedure.

Your surgeon may use various tools and techniques to achieve the best results. To remove fatty tissue, liposuction using a cannula (a thin hollow tube) will loosen and suction fat cells. Glandular breast tissues and excess skin is then cut and removed.

After the Surgery
Once gynecomastia surgery is over, you’ll be sent home bandaged with drains to collect fluid drainage. Your surgeon will provide you with wound care instructions.

If you had general anesthesia, you’ll be able to resume regular eating habits as soon as bowel function resumes.7 If you have a local anesthetic, there’s no waiting time before you can resume eating. Choose light meals and plenty of fluids to avoid nausea in the early stages of coming out of anesthesia.

Regardless of whether you have a local anesthetic or general anesthesia, you’ll need to arrange for a driver to bring you home and stay with you for the first night after surgery. Follow the pain medication regimen advised by your surgeon to stay ahead of the pain and begin healing.

Recovery
Plan to take it easy in the first few weeks after gynecomastia surgery. Your body needs time to rest and recover. Jumping back into work or physical activity too soon will do more harm than good. Depending on the nature of your job, you should be able to resume work within ten days of gynecomastia surgery.

If your procedure involved liposuction only, you may be cleared to work and exercise again in a matter of days. The removal of glandular tissue and skin requires additional healing time, so plan to hold off on aerobic exercise for at least two weeks and weight-lifting for four weeks, pending your healthcare provider’s approval.
