Gynecomastia" is the medical term for benign enlargement of the male breast tissue. This condition can be quite discomforting to men, yet many men have it, and many have liposuction to correct it. This surgery involves the removal of fat and/or glandular tissue from the breasts. In extreme cases, skin is removed as well. The effect is a flatter, firmer and more contoured chest. Because the fat is permanently removed from that area, the results are permanent.
The Healing Process
In order to maximize the results of your surgery and to expedite the healing process, its important to closely follow your surgeons instructions in the days and weeks immediately following your surgery. This includes taking adequate time off work and getting enough rest. Instructions may also include wearing bandages or tight compression garments; staying out of the sun; not drinking alcohol or smoking; and avoiding strenuous activity, exercise, sports, and even sex.
