Removes developed mammary gland tissue and fat to create a flat and firm chest line.
Gynecomastia is a condition in which a man's chest develops like a woman's due to factors such as hormones and body weight. Treatment involves surgery to remove the developed glandular tissue and perform liposuction to create a flat and natural chest contour.
The contour is refined by excising glandular tissue through small incisions, such as at the areola border, and suctioning out surrounding fat. Since the removal of glandular tissue is the key step, recurrence is possible with liposuction alone.
Wearing a compression garment for a certain period after surgery is necessary, and there is a possibility of recurrence if weight is gained.
Since gynecomastia is often caused by glandular tissue, it may recur if only liposuction is performed without removing the glands.
Although the likelihood of recurrence is low if mammary tissue is removed, it may reappear with significant weight gain or hormonal changes.
