What is Male Breast Reduction?
Male breast reduction surgery, also known as gynaecomastia surgery, is a procedure designed to address enlarged male breast tissue. This condition, known as gynaecomastia, is common among men of all ages, including teenage boys. It causes the male chest to swell and appear larger than usual, often leading to self-consciousness.
Male breast reduction surgery removes excess fat, tissue, and skin to contour the chest, creating a firmer, more masculine appearance. While many men seek this procedure for aesthetic reasons, it also helps achieve a more balanced and confident body image.
How Male Breast Reduction Restores a Masculine Chest
- Removes excessive fat and glandular tissue to flatten the chest.
- Improves chest contours for a firmer, more masculine appearance.
- Reduces sagging or stretched skin for a natural, toned look.
- Addresses aesthetic concerns, helping men feel more confident.
What is involved in the Male Breast Reduction Procedure?
The approach to male breast reduction varies depending on the extent of tissue and skin removal required.
1 | Liposuction Technique
In cases where excess fat is the primary concern, liposuction is often used.
- Small incisions are made around the nipple or in the armpit area to access the fat.
- Using advanced techniques, the fat is removed, and the chest is sculpted for a flatter, more natural contour.
2 | Excision Technique
For patients with significant glandular tissue, stretched skin, or sagging, excision is necessary.
- Incisions are made around the nipple or in natural creases to minimise visible scarring.
- This technique allows for the removal of both tissue and excess skin, creating a smoother, more defined chest.
3 | Customised Approach
During your consultation, I will evaluate your condition and recommend the best technique, or a combination of both, to achieve your desired results.
