The operation is tailored to the needs of each patient
Long term result
After surgery, gynecomastia usually does not return, so patients can enjoy the results for many years
Short rehabilitation period
Typically rehabilitation takes 1-2 weeks
Low trauma to soft tissues
During the operation, the surgeon makes small incisions that do not injure surrounding tissues
Gynecomastia consultation
At a face-to-face appointment, the physician examines the patient and prescribes tests to detect gynaecomastia. Gynecomastia can be treated with medication (in case of hormonal causes), and in other instances the patient is prepared for surgery or liposuction. The physician determines the type of surgery together with the patient and explains the preparations for surgery in detail.
Gynecomastia surgery in Moscow
No food for 8 hours and water for 3 hours before surgery. It is necessary to remove vegetation from the breast area to reduce the risk of infection of the postoperative wounds. The surgery is performed under general anaesthesia and lasts 1-2 hours. The surgeon makes incisions around or above the nipples, then removes excess skin and fat. Endoscopic surgery involves making incisions in the armpit area so that the nipple areola is not traumatised.
Gynecomastia rehabilitation
After the surgery it is recommended to stay in hospital for 2-3 days to ensure fast and painless healing. It is necessary to follow all the recommendations: take antibacterial drugs and painkillers, wear compression undergarments. Physical activity should be avoided for a month and the breast area should not be traumatised.
