Gynecomastia in men

GYNECOMASTIA IN MEN

Gynecomastia corresponds to the anormal development of the mammary gland in men, often resulting in a significant psychological impact that motivates the consultation.

What are the principles ?

During the consultation, the clinical examination will clarify the nature of gynecomastia :

In case of predominantly fatty gynecomastia, a lipoaspiration will be performed; In case of predominantly glandular gynecomastia, an excision of the mammary gland will be proposed.

Breast ptosis is sometimes associated, in which case mastopexy (breast lift) is indicated at the same time.

Mode of anesthesia2021-09-09T08:32:16+01:00

Local anaesthesia with sedation or general anaesthesia depending on the importance of the gynecomastia and the technique used.

Duration of the operation2021-09-09T08:31:45+01:00

45 min to 2H

Hospitalization2021-09-09T08:31:29+01:00

Ambulatory (discharge from the clinic on the evening of the operation) or 1 night at the clinic.

What are the objectives of the operation ?2021-09-09T08:32:59+01:00

The surgical treatment of gynecomastia aims to reduce breast volume by removing breast fat and/or the mammary gland.

Where are the scars placed ?2021-09-09T08:30:57+01:00

The scars are located in a semi-circle under the nipple in case of removal of the mammary gland alone. If mastopexy is performed, the scars are hidden depending on the extent of ptosis:

  • around the areola
  • around the areola and vertically to the submammary fold

In case of predominant adipomastia, liposuction is also performed alone or in combination with a semi-circular scar under the areola. The scars corresponding to the liposuction procedure alone are concealed and millimetric.

What are the consequences ?2021-09-09T08:30:35+01:00

  • A compression garment is worn for 4 to 6 weeks.
  • A completely normal post-operative edema is present for about 2 months.
  • The final result is visible after 3 to 4 months.
  • The scars evolve over 12 to 18 months.
  • A 7 to 15 day work stoppage is prescribed.
