Are you self-conscious about taking your shirt off in front of others? Are you worried people will judge you because of your “man boobs”? Gynecomastia can happen for several reasons. The good news is that Dr. Philpott at The Body Sculpting Center can help to diminish your fears of showing off your chest. With the help of gynecomastia surgery, you can begin to regain your self-confidence.
More than one-third of men suffer from gynecomastia. When considering plastic surgery for male breast reduction, there are five things Dr. Philpott wants his patients to know.
What Can I Expect from Male Breast Reduction?
Regain your masculine look with male breast reduction. Cosmetic medicine has come a long way since its origin. Thanks to new technology, liposuction procedures have been modernized and are less invasive than previous techniques. Liposuction is used in male breast reduction to suction out excess fat in the breast while some may need an excisional gynecomastia.
How Much Will Male Breast Reduction Cost?
Because male breast reduction surgery is an elective procedure, most insurance companies do not cover it. However, this surgery is worth every penny. If you are interested in this procedure but do not think you can afford the cost, you should inquire about our affordable financing options.
What is My Recovery Time for Male Breast Reduction?
After the surgery, you will be sent home in a compression wrap, and your body will need time to heal. It is typical to allow your body a few days for the pain to subside. Following the reduced pain and swelling, it may take six to eight weeks for your body to fully recover.
What Will My Male Breast Reduction Scars Look Like?
Doctors will place the incisions carefully around the areola. Over time, the incision should fade. After the healing process is complete, the incisions should leave minimal scarring. To aid the healing process and diminish scarring, it is extremely important to follow all of your post-surgical care and instructions.
