Male Breast Reduction at Cosmetic Surgery Partners London
Gynaecomastia is the abnormal enlargement of male breast tissue – causing so-called ‘Man boobs’ or ‘Moobs.’ It can affect up to 60 per cent of men, and most commonly strikes during puberty and once again at around the age of 60, when hormone levels change.
They can be caused by prescription or illegal drugs, some medical conditions and being overweight – as excess fat collects in the ‘moobs.’ Liposuction can help to suck some of the fat away, but it can often reappear. The best option could be gynaecomastia surgery or a combination of liposuction and gynaecomastia surgery.
If you would like to know more information about the Gynaecomastia surgery provided by CSP then please view our FAQ section below or call our medically-trained team on 020 7952 6900 who can answer any questions you may have and can arrange to book you in for a consultation with one of our experienced surgeons.
Example Gynaecomastia patient
27 year old male before and after surgery photos at 6 weeks.
At what age should I consider having male chest reduction surgery?
Due to the fact that the human body usually doesn’t mature till the late teens we as standard refuse to do any form of cosmetic surgery on patients under 18. However as long as the patient is in good health there is no real maximum age limit at which surgery is possible.
How can I prepare for surgery?
In order to best aid the healing process we advise all patients to quit smoking at least 2 weeks before the operation and thereafter. We always recommend a healthy and balanced diet. The patient must be in general good health which is something we will check during your initial consultation.
Is the surgery performed under local or general anaesthetic?
In some cases it is possible to perform the surgery under local anaesthetic however when a large amount of tissue needs to be surgically removed we will need to use a general anaesthetic in which case the patient will need to stay overnight at the hospital.
Will there be scars?
Each case will vary depending on the amount of tissue that needs to be removed during the surgery. Our surgeons are experts at creating minimal incisions and creating scars that are small in size and therefore hard to detect. Your surgeon will be able to advise you during your consultation.
Do I need to stay overnight at the hospital?
Usually we require gynaecomastia patients to stay the night at our hospital location. Your overnight stay will be discreet and personal, you will be allocated a private room to recover in and your assigned nurse will be on call throughout your stay to make sure you rest up in the best possible environment.
