India's Celebrity Cosmetic Surgeon

Male Breast Reduction

For a man, nothing can be more embarrassing than having enlarged breasts. But this can happen and does happen to a lot of men. Medically termed "gynecomastia" the term that originates from the Greek words for "women-like breasts" this is a combination of breast tissue and fat accumulation. The social stigma attached to males having excess chest skin or swollen breast tissue can be physically uncomfortable and psychologically distressing. Boys and men face a lot of ridicule for the appearance of their chest which starts looking like a female's chest causing them to avoid circumstances where the chest has to be borne.

What are the causes of gynecomastia?

    Gynecomastia is a common condition and affects an estimated 40 to 60 percent of the male population and its most common cause is pubertal. This condition is typically associated with heredity rather than various lifestyle choices, so even opting for a strenuous exercise regimen and adhering to a strict diet may not fix the problem. Certain pills such as anabolic steroids, medicines containing estrogen, alcohol, marijuana, etc., and other medical conditions including cancer, and weakened liver function, to name a few, may prompt or add to enlarged male breasts.

Who are the right candidates for gynecomastia surgery in India?

  • Boys who are more than 18 years of age and have enlarged breasts
  • Boys below the age of 18 have enlarged breasts and have psychological issues due to peer pressure.
  • Older men have seen an increase in the size of their breasts due to increased weight
  • Males have asymmetric breasts
  • Men who have undergone gynecomastia surgery but still have residual breast tissue
  • Men who have enlarged breasts secondary to steroid treatment taken during muscle-building exercises

What are the anaesthesia requirements for gynecomastia surgery?

    The procedure of gynecomastia surgery in Mumbai is usually carried out under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia as a daycare procedure if all your baseline investigations are within normal limits. The baseline study of gynecomastia surgery in Mumbai at Dr.Mohan Thomas Aesthetics, one of the leading cosmetic surgeons in India who also excels in medical procedures like thread lift and rhinoplasty in India includes an ultrasound of the breast to rule out any pathology.

How is the procedure carried out?

    The surgery is carried out through two keyhole incisions on the sides of your chest with the help of a power-assisted liposuction surgery technique. The excess fat and breast tissue are sucked out and after the gynecomastia surgery in Mumbai, you are made to wear a pressure garment for a period of four weeks. Sometimes there may be residual breast tissue which can be addressed through a periareolar incision and takes an average of two hours.

    Excess breast envelopes or drooping NAC (Nipple-areola complex) can be addressed at the same time or at a later stage. This is usually required in Grade 3 gynecomastia surgery in India and is usually seen after massive weight loss. The gynecomastia surgery cost in Mumbai at Doctor Mohan Thomas Aesthetics clinic is very minimal and the results are lasting. Dr. Mohan Thomas is also one of the prominent practitioners of hair transplant in Mumbai. Although consequent obesity can produce a gynecomastia-like effect. Some of the benefits of surgery include a firmer, flatter, more contoured chest which may give the male patient a boost in self-confidence. There is short downtime, and you may resume working within 1 week unless you are committed to strenuous activities. There will be an incision around the nipple of the breast (areola) if the cut has been made to remove excess breast tissue but will fade over a period of time and be less visible. The bruising, swelling, and burning sensation will be there after the gynecomastia surgery. To help with the healing process, the patient will wear a stretc

    Other considerations include numbness for a brief amount of time or lack of feeling that might last up to a year. Uncommon complications like infection, skin damage, Fluid accumulation, bleeding, scarring or pigment changes might show up after gynecomastia surgery in India.

Along with gynecomastia, Dr. Mohan Thomas also showcases a list of successful breast implant surgery in India.

What are the post-procedure precautions?

    You will be discharged on the evening of the surgery. From the next day onwards, you are permitted to do restricted physical activity. By the end of two weeks, you will be able to do most of your activities. The pressure garment is to be worn for a period of 2 weeks for 24 hours and thereafter only at night for another two weeks. This is important as it helps the skin to drape over your body without leaving any dead space.
