Gynecomastia, commonly referred to as “man boobs,” is a condition that causes excess breast tissue in men, often leading to self-consciousness and discomfort. While it’s a common condition, its impact on self-esteem and daily life can be significant. Gynecomastia surgery offers a permanent solution, giving you a firmer, more masculine chest. With Dr. Vikesh Vij, one of Dubai’s leading plastic surgeons, you can expect expert care and outstanding results tailored to your goals.
What is Gynecomastia?
Gynecomastia is the enlargement of breast tissue in men, caused by an imbalance of hormones, genetics, obesity, certain medications, or lifestyle factors. It’s a common condition, affecting men of all ages, and can occur in one or both breasts.
There are different grades of gynecomastia, which determine its severity:
Grade 1: Small enlargement with no excess skin.
Grade 2: Moderate enlargement with excess skin but not visible under clothing.
Grade 3: Significant enlargement with noticeable excess skin and fat.
Grade 4: Severe enlargement, resembling female breasts, often with significant excess skin and fat.
Dr. Vij will assess your condition during the consultation to determine the appropriate treatment plan.
Gynecomastia surgery is ideal for men who:
• Struggle with excess breast tissue or fat that doesn’t respond to diet and exercise.
• Feel self-conscious about their chest appearance.
• Experience discomfort or irritation from enlarged breasts.
• Are in good overall health and maintain a stable weight.
Dr. Vij will perform a detailed evaluation to determine if you’re a suitable candidate and recommend the best treatment approach.
Dr. Vij uses a combination of advanced techniques to address gynecomastia effectively:
1. VASER Liposuction:
• This minimally invasive technique uses ultrasound energy to break down fat cells before removal.
• Ideal for patients with excess fat but minimal glandular tissue.
• Ensures a smooth and contoured chest.
2. Gland Excision:
• Removes excess glandular tissue that cannot be addressed with liposuction alone.
• Often combined with liposuction for optimal results.
• Provides a flatter, firmer chest appearance.
3. Skin Tightening:
• For severe cases, excess skin is removed to ensure a taut and natural-looking chest.
Dr. Vij tailors the surgical approach based on the severity of your gynecomastia and your aesthetic goals.
Dr. Vij ensures a smooth and supportive experience from start to finish:
1. Consultation:
You’ll discuss your concerns and goals with Dr. Vij. A detailed physical examination is conducted to assess the severity of gynecomastia and recommend the appropriate treatment.
2. Preparation:
Clear pre-surgery instructions will be provided, including guidelines on diet, medications, and recovery planning.
3. Surgery:
The procedure is performed under general or local anesthesia, depending on the extent of treatment. The surgery typically takes 1-3 hours, and most patients return home the same day.
4. Recovery:
You’ll be given a compression garment to wear for a few weeks to reduce swelling and support healing. Swelling and bruising are normal but subside within a few weeks.
5. Follow-Up Care:
Dr. Vij schedules regular follow-ups to monitor your healing and ensure optimal results.
Dr. Vij provides personalized aftercare instructions to ensure a smooth recovery and long-lasting results.
