Gynecomastia surgery in Delhi

Discuss when the enlargement began, whether it has changed, any discomfort and the impact on daily life. Your medical history, medicines and supplements help identify possible contributing factors. Do not stop prescribed treatment without advice.

The examination looks at the amount and distribution of glandular tissue and fat, the skin's ability to retract, nipple position and differences between the two sides. Any unexplained lump or new nipple change needs medical assessment. Age alone does not determine suitability; in younger patients, development and the possibility of recurrence also matter.

The incision and technique depend on the volume of gland, fat and loose skin. The following approaches may be considered individually or in combination.

Where excess fat predominates, liposuction removes fat through small incisions using a cannula. Excision is used when glandular tissue or excess skin needs removal. Many surgical plans combine the two to address the chest as a whole.

The anaesthetic is chosen for the extent of treatment and your health, and may involve general anaesthesia or an appropriate sedation/local anaesthetic plan. Surgery often takes around one to two hours, but more extensive treatment can take longer. You will be observed afterwards and given discharge and follow-up instructions.

Ask about incision placement, any drains or compression garment and how much correction is realistic. Bleeding, fluid collections, infection, uneven contour, altered nipple sensation, healing problems and visible scars are among the risks.

Soreness, bruising and swelling are expected early in recovery and can temporarily obscure the contour. Prescribed pain relief and a support garment may help. If drains are used, their care and removal are guided by the surgical team.

Some people can return to light work around a week after limited treatment, while more extensive tissue or skin removal can require longer. Follow individual advice on driving, lifting and exercise rather than using work return as a sign that healing is complete.

The chest continues to settle over the following months; the final result may take three to six months to assess. Scars are permanent, although they usually fade. Results vary, and further treatment may be needed for a residual contour concern or a complication.

A consultation with Dr. Ashutosh Misra considers the likely cause, the tissue involved and the result you hope to achieve. Ask which technique is proposed, whether skin removal is needed, how scars will be placed and what aftercare to arrange.

Cost varies with the amount of treatment, anaesthesia and facility requirements. An individual estimate should explain the surgical fees, consumables, any stay, garments and follow-up, together with items charged separately.
