What is Gynecomastia
Gynecomastia surgery corrects the enlargement of male breast tissue, a condition that can affect self-esteem and body confidence. The procedure involves removing excess glandular tissue and fat, often combined with liposuction for enhanced contouring.
Our partner surgeons in Turkey use the latest techniques to create a flatter, firmer chest with minimal scarring and a natural result.

Procedure, recovery, risks and aftercare
What Happens During Gynecomastia surgery?
Gynecomastia surgery, also known as male breast reduction, is a procedure designed to reduce enlarged male breast tissue and restore a flatter, more masculine chest contour. The surgery may involve liposuction, excision of glandular tissue, or a combination of both, depending on the severity of the condition. Incisions are typically made around the edge of the areola or within natural chest creases to minimize visible scarring. If excess skin is present, it may also be removed to enhance the final result. The procedure is usually performed under general anaesthesia and takes between one and two hours.
What Does Recovery Look Like?
After gynecomastia surgery, it’s normal to experience swelling, bruising, and mild to moderate discomfort in the chest area. Most patients are able to return to light activities within a few days, but strenuous exercise and heavy lifting should be avoided for at least four to six weeks. A compression garment is usually worn to minimize swelling, support the healing tissues, and help the chest settle into its new shape. Initial improvements are often visible within a few weeks, with full results becoming apparent over the following months.
Required Aftercare
Proper aftercare is essential for a smooth recovery and the best surgical outcome. You’ll need to keep the incision areas clean and dry and follow your surgeon’s instructions carefully, including how to manage drains if they are placed. Wearing the prescribed compression garment as directed helps reduce swelling and supports proper skin retraction. Follow-up visits with your surgeon are important to monitor your healing and address any concerns. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle and stable weight after surgery can help preserve your results over the long term.
Risks and Side Effects
Like any surgical procedure, gynecomastia surgery carries some risks. Common side effects include swelling, bruising, numbness, and temporary discomfort. Less common but more serious complications can include infection, hematoma (blood collection), asymmetry, or changes in nipple sensation. Choosing an experienced, board-certified surgeon significantly reduces the likelihood of complications and improves the chance of achieving natural-looking results. All risks will be thoroughly discussed with you.
Frequently Asked Questions About Gynecomastia Surgery
Am I a good candidate for gynecomastia surgery?
You may be a good candidate if you have persistent enlargement of breast tissue that doesn’t improve with diet or exercise. Ideal patients are in good general health, non-smokers, and have realistic expectations about the results.
How long does it take to recover from gynecomastia surgery?
Most patients can return to work and light activities within a week, but full recovery—including return to exercise—may take four to six weeks.
Will the results of gynecomastia surgery be permanent?
Yes, as long as you maintain a stable weight and avoid medications or substances that can contribute to hormonal imbalance, your results should be long-lasting.
Will I have visible scars after surgery?
Scars are typically small and well-hidden around the areola or in natural skin folds. They usually fade significantly over time with proper care.
Can gynecomastia surgery be combined with other procedures?
Yes, it’s often combined with body contouring treatments or liposuction for enhanced results. Your surgeon can advise on safe combinations based on your goals.
