A man of today give value to his appearance, exercise regularly, pay attention to himself with spa and cosmetic products, because a youthful and vital appearance have decisive significance both in professional and private life. More and more men are aware of their body; strive for a flawless, sexy and above all aesthetic physique. Because of that they also decide to undergo plastic and cosmetic surgery.

The reasons of Gynecomastia

Many men suffer from the so-called gynecomastia, a benign enlargement of the male breast tissue. A pronounced female breast shape can affect the self-esteem of men significantly. In such cases, a gynecomastia surgery can be the answer.

Gynecomastia may occur, for example in bodybuilders due to various causes; such as hormonal disorders, weight gain or loss, liver conditions, certain types of tumors and drugs or by an excessive intake of anabolic steroids. As a result, the real cause should be examined, determined and treated with reviews, if there is a cause. However, in most patients, it leads back to no specific cause and this condition requires surgical intervention of aesthetic plastic surgeons, as it is only a cosmetic problem.

The operation methods of a breast correction

Gynecomastia with Vaser Hi Def Liposuction: A breast enlargement due to obesity and fat is also called pseudo gynecomastia or Lipomastia. In pseudo gynecomastia, the breast enlargement depends on the pure fat accumulation and usually very good results can be achieved with Vaser Hi Def Liposuction. In this liposuction, the surgeon sets 1-2 barely visible small incisions below the breast crease to remove the redundant fat there with the help of cannulas. Vaser Hi Def Liposuction uses ultrasound energy to aspirate fat deposits just below the skin and the breasts can be modeled more clearly for body sculpting. VaserLipo is particularly suitable for men who need Gynecomastie or who want to define their chest and abdominal muscles more. Vaser technology has also a lifting and firming effect for the skin through ultrasound energy. The operation results in a less aggressive procedure which may lead to faster recovery times compared to traditional liposuction. There will be less bruising, swelling and edema on operated regions, the risk of complications, asymmetry, bumps, and lumps is lower, the healing process is faster. Even with Vaser liposuction, it sometimes happens that excess tissue must be removed. Therefore, it can be necessary that very large breasts may require a subsequent skin tightening.

Gynecomastia with Vaser Hi Def Liposuction and Breast Lifting: The so-called “real” gynecomastia results generally from hormonal changes, defined as benign proliferation of male breast glandular tissue. This breast tissue must be removed. This is also done by removing the tissue on the above mentioned sections. Very large breasts may require a combination method with Vaser Hi Def Liposuction. During the procedure the excess fat will be removed through Vaser liposuction, then breast glandular tissue will cut away and the excess skin will be removed.

Recovery after Gynecomastia Surgery

The operation is performed under general anesthesia and the patient is 1 night stationary in the clinic. It is very important wearing an elastic compression tshirt after the surgery for 6 weeks constantly. That helps to decrease swelling, increase wound healing and skin shrinkage on the operated breasts. During the post-treatment period, the patient should avoid the chest area enervating movements. Physical exertion and stressful sports should be avoided for 1 month. To prevent pigmentation disorders, direct sunlight in the chest area should be avoided during the first 6 months. Against the postoperative pains the surgeon can prescribe you medicines. The swelling and bruising usually go after a few weeks even back.
