Gynecomastia Male Breast Surgery*

One of the most common complaints of gynecomastia patients is that they have a hard time finding clothes that they can wear without seeing the breasts. Patient's employ a number of different clever ways of hiding their male breasts: double t-shirts, black only clothing, thick sweaters, even camouflage shirts. But no matter what home remedy they find, there is the dreaded moment when a male gynecomastia patient is invited to a pool party or has to take their shirt off in public. Having breast tissue that resembles female breast tissue can cause a great deal of anxiety in social situations. For body builders, gynecomastia can be a stigma of some past poor decisions. Gynecomastia surgery is a permanent solution to create a masculine, normal looking chest. The surgery takes approximately two hours. Initial recovery is approximately one to two weeks, with final results being seen after several months, when the swelling completely subsides. In terms of patient satisfaction, many men regret not doing the surgery sooner, and some say it was the best decision they have ever made.
