Is It Right For You?

When diet and exercise have done all they can

Male breast reduction may be right for you if you recognise yourself here. It is a common concern, handled in a private, non-judgemental environment with professionalism and respect.

Persistent excess breast tissue despite diet and exercise
You feel self-conscious removing your shirt or wearing fitted clothes
Chest discomfort, tenderness or imbalance
Glandular tissue growth or hormone-related gynaecomastia
You want a discreet, professional and private route to treatment
You are in good general health, with realistic expectations for surgery
Your Options

4 options - tailored to your needs

The right technique depends on your anatomy, your goals and your skin - Mr Ghosh will recommend the most suitable option(s) for you during your consultation.

Liposuction Only

For chests that are mostly fatty tissue, removed through small hidden incisions.

Liposuction + Gland Excision

For firmer glandular tissue that liposuction alone cannot remove.

Skin Tightening or Removal

For significant excess skin, restoring a flatter, firmer contour.

Revision Surgery

Specialist correction of previous gynaecomastia procedures.

Not sure which is right for you? That is what the consultation is for.

Recovery

What recovery really looks like

The first few days

Most patients describe mild to moderate discomfort in the first few days, easily managed with prescribed pain relief. A compression garment is worn to support healing and minimise swelling.

7 to 10 days

Most men return to light activity within 7 to 10 days.

4 to 6 weeks

Full activity by 4 to 6 weeks. Chest workouts should be avoided for 4 to 6 weeks or as advised by your surgeon.

Discreet scarring

Incisions are kept small and discreet, often placed around the areola or in the chest fold. Scars typically fade significantly over time.
