About diagnosis, treatment and recovery
Can gynecomastia recur (risk of recurrence)?
When glandular tissue is surgically removed, a lasting result is generally aimed for; however, significant weight change, hormonal causes or certain medications may lead to renewed prominence.
Will there be scars, and how visible are they?
Where possible, periareolar (areola-edge) and concealed-incision approaches are preferred; scar visibility varies by person and the method applied.
When can I return to sports and exercise?
The return time varies by the method applied and your recovery; the timing is planned by your team during your check-ups.
Is the procedure for fat or for glandular tissue; which is my type?
Gynecomastia is generally evaluated as glandular, fatty-predominant and mixed types; your type is determined through examination and, when needed, imaging.
Is liposuction alone enough, or is surgical excision also needed?
In the fatty-predominant type, liposuction alone may be suitable; if glandular tissue is present, surgical excision may also be needed or the two methods are planned together.
Under which anesthesia is the procedure done and how long does it take?
The type of anesthesia and the duration vary by the chosen method and the amount of tissue; details are shared with you after your assessment.

Return to daily life varies by the intensity of work and the method applied; the timing is planned individually.
Will the result be maintained if I lose weight; does weight change affect it?
After glandular tissue is removed, the result is generally lasting; however, significant weight changes can affect the chest contour, so a stable weight is recommended.
I am coming from abroad; how many days should I stay and how is follow-up done?
