Breast prostheses for pronounced male breast enlargement
For men struggling with severe gynecomastia, a condition where excess breast tissue develops due to a hormonal imbalance, seeking the expertise of a board-certified plastic surgeon can offer a solution. These specialists tailor treatment plans to address both glandular tissue and skin excess, aiming to sculpt a firm, masculine chest with minimized scarring and optimal recovery.
The surgical approach varies depending on the extent of tissue enlargement, the presence of excess skin, and the need for nipple-areolar complex (NAC) preservation.
**Surgical Techniques**
In cases where excess fat is the primary concern, liposuction is often used. A small incision, typically around the areola or in the armpit, allows the insertion of a cannula to loosen and suction out excess fat. This minimally invasive technique leads to quicker recovery and less scarring compared to excision techniques.
Glandular tissue excision is essential for cases where dense, fibrous glandular tissue is prominent. Incisions are made around the areola or within natural chest folds; through these, the surgeon directly removes the glandular tissue, contributing to a flatter, more masculine chest contour in severe cases.
When significant skin excess is present, skin resection may be necessary. This can involve mastopexy (skin tightening) or, in rare cases, nipple grafting if nipple repositioning is not feasible. Care is taken to preserve the NAC whenever possible and to camouflage scars within the natural chest contour.
Most severe cases require a combination of liposuction, gland excision, and skin resection to achieve optimal results. Advanced techniques may involve ultrasound-assisted liposuction (UAL) for more precise fat removal and improved skin retraction.
**Procedure Highlights**
The procedure is typically performed under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia, depending on the severity and patient preference. Incisions are carefully placed to minimize visible scarring, often around the areola or under the chest fold.
Postoperative bruising, swelling, and discomfort are common and usually resolve within weeks. Full results are evident after several months as swelling subsides and scars mature.
Potential complications include hematoma, infection, contour irregularities, breast asymmetry, nipple sensation changes, and, in rare cases, DVT. Careful preoperative evaluation and adherence to aftercare instructions minimize risks.
**In the Spotlight**
Dr. Rajat Gupta, a board-certified plastic surgeon with 15 years of experience in aesthetic surgeries, offers the PURE Contouring method, which involves breaking down the breast gland and removing it through a tiny incision. Men seeking treatment can book an appointment by calling 91-9251711711 or emailing contact@our website.
Gynecomastia surgery aims to minimize risks and complications while achieving a natural and desired outcome. Scars from gynecomastia surgery performed by Dr. Rajat Gupta are usually less than 3-4mm in size and fade away over time.
While bras for severe gynecomastia can help keep the breasts in position and shape, they are not a treatment or cure for gynecomastia. Radio frequency enhanced contouring may be performed by Dr. Rajat Gupta in cases where skin excision is not required to achieve a chiselled and toned appearance.
