How? 'Or' What  ?

 

An endocrine assessment is mandatory before any surgical treatment.

This intervention requires a general anesthesia lasting between 45 and 75  min.

A scar on the lower part of the areola is usually sufficient to remove the glandular nucleus. Most often, liposuction is associated to even out the remaining volume.

 

When there is a significant excess of skin, in particular after weight loss, this excess skin must be removed by a horizontal scar on the thorax.

 

Suites and result.

 

The intervention is not very painful.

A compression garment should be worn for one month after the operation.

Bruising and edema are present for at least fifteen days.

The result will be final from two months. The scar will evolve for a year.

 

Risks.

 

In addition to those related to general anesthesia, the main risks of the treatment of bilateral gynecomastia are hematoma and lymph effusion, which may require a puncture, if it is important.

 

The other risks mainly relate to imperfections of the result, which may require surgical retouching, which should not take place for at least six months.
