What is Gynecomastia?
Gynecomastia is the noticeable enlargement in the chest area resulting from excessive development of the mammary gland in men. It can occur due to hormonal imbalance, medications, weight gain, or genetic factors. It causes aesthetic concern, negatively affecting the self-confidence and social life of men.
At Million Hair Clinic, we combine VASER liposuction and surgical excision techniques in our gynecomastia operations in Istanbul. This approach effectively removes both fatty tissue and glandular tissue, creating a flat, masculine chest contour.
Gynecomastia surgery at our clinic is performed by our experienced plastic surgeons in a procedure lasting 1-2 hours. Scars remain nearly invisible in the operation performed with minimal incisions. Same-day discharge is possible.
How is Gynecomastia Performed?
Gynecomastia surgery at our clinic is applied with personalized approach and advanced techniques.
Examination and Diagnosis
The type of gynecomastia (fat, glandular, or mixed) is determined through chest area examination, hormonal tests, and ultrasound if necessary.
Surgical Planning
Liposuction, surgical excision, or a combined technique is selected based on the grade of gynecomastia.
Surgery
Fatty tissue is removed with VASER under general or local anesthesia, and the mammary gland is excised if necessary. The operation takes 1-2 hours.
Recovery
A compression garment is worn for 3-4 weeks. Daily activities can be resumed after 1 week, and sports after 4-6 weeks. The final result settles in 3 months.
Jinekomasti Dereceleri
Gynecomastia is classified into 4 grades from mild to severe. In grades 1 and 2, VASER liposuction alone is generally sufficient. In grades 3 and 4, skin removal with surgical excision may also be required. An appropriate treatment protocol for each grade is applied at our clinic.
Gynecomastia Advantages
1. Permanent Results
The removed mammary gland and fatty tissue do not return. Gynecomastia surgery offers a permanent solution. The risk of recurrence is very low when hormonal imbalance is brought under control.
2. Minimal Scarring
Only a few millimeter-long incisions are made in the VASER-assisted technique. When surgical excision is required, access is made through the areola perimeter and the scar fades over time to become nearly invisible.
3. Short Operation Time
Gynecomastia surgery generally takes 1-2 hours. Same-day discharge is possible and hospital stay is not required.
4. Rapid Recovery
Daily activities can be resumed within 1 week. The compression garment is used for 3-4 weeks. Sports can be started after 4-6 weeks.
5. Confidence Boost
Gynecomastia is a serious source of aesthetic concern in men. The vast majority of our patients experience a significant boost in self-confidence and comfort in social life after the operation.
