Gynecomastia

FAQ

Gynecomastia is a medical condition characterized by abnormal development of breast tissue in men. This can lead to an increase in breast size, which can be a source of physical and emotional discomfort for the person.

First weeks: Wear a compression vest to reduce swelling and improve healing; avoid strenuous physical activities for 4-6 weeks.

Discomfort: Mild to moderate pain, which is controlled with prescription painkillers; possible swelling, bruising, and tenderness, which gradually decrease.

Final results: They can be observed in 2-3 months, once the inflammation has completely gone down.

It is rare, but can occur if hormonal imbalances occur again, anabolic steroids, certain drugs or medications are used, or obesity develops. Therefore, maintaining a healthy lifestyle helps preserve the results.

Light activities: After 1-2 weeks.

Intense exercise: After 4-6 weeks.

Visible results: Although the changes are noticeable immediately, the final result is observed once the swelling disappears, between 2 and 3 months.

If gynecomastia does not cause significant discomfort or emotional problems, surgery is not necessary. However, if it interferes with your self-esteem or physical comfort, surgery may be a good option.
