Masculine appearance without compromises
Gynecomastia is the benign (non-cancerous) enlargement of male breasts caused by the increase of glandular tissue.
Obesity can also cause breast enlargement due to excess fatty tissue (pseudogynecomastia).
Gynecomastia is painless but can have a significant impact on confidence and self-esteem.
If gynecomastia causes you distress and/or other symptoms, then this surgery might be the right option for you.

It should be noted that gynecomastia often occurs as a result of a hormonal imbalance between testosterone and estrogen, but it can also be secondary to the use of certain medications or associated with other medical conditions.
Before the surgical procedure, an endocrinology consultation and a breast ultrasound must be performed.
What does the procedure entail?
Depending on the volume of tissue to be excised, local anesthesia with or without sedation may be chosen. The incisions are minimal and placed under the areola. After the procedure, the patient wears a compression vest to prevent the formation of seromas.
The duration of the procedure ranges between 150 and 180 minutes, and the patient can go home the same day. Sutures are removed after 2 weeks.
