Expert Male Chest Contouring for a Firmer, Flatter, More Confident Physique
Gynecomastia surgery at Memorial Hospital Turkey offers a safe and effective solution for men experiencing enlarged breast tissue due to hormonal imbalance, excess weight, medications, or genetic factors. Using advanced liposuction systems, refined surgical excision, and small, hidden incisions, Memorial surgeons sculpt a flatter and more masculine chest profile. The procedure is tailored to the severity of enlargement, ensuring natural, symmetrical, and long-lasting results.
🩺 What Is Gynecomastia?
Gynecomastia is the abnormal enlargement of male breast tissue caused by hormonal changes, genetic factors, liver or thyroid disorders, certain medications, or excess weight.
It can appear at any age but is most commonly seen during adolescence and adulthood. The condition often leads to tenderness, swelling, and changes in the appearance of the chest, creating both physical discomfort and emotional distress.
Gynecomastia may affect one or both breasts and can vary from mild fullness to more pronounced enlargement requiring surgical correction. When underlying causes are identified and managed, recurrence becomes less likely. Gynecomastia surgery removes excess glandular tissue, fat, and skin to restore a firm, masculine chest.
With precise techniques and careful planning, the procedure provides long-lasting improvement, enhanced symmetry, and significant confidence for affected men.
🩺 Types of Gynecomastia Surgery
- Vaser Liposuction – Uses ultrasonic sound waves to break down dense fat tissue before removal, allowing precise sculpting and smoother contours with minimal bruising.
- Laser Liposuction – Liquefies fat using laser energy and promotes skin tightening, suitable for patients with mild to moderate excess fatty tissue.
- Surgical Excision Method – Removes firm glandular breast tissue and stubborn fat directly, ideal for moderate to severe gynecomastia or cases with enlarged mammary glands.
🩺 Who Is a Good Candidate?
Gynecomastia surgery is ideal for men experiencing enlarged breast tissue that affects confidence, comfort, or daily life. Candidates should be in good overall health and willing to follow perioperative instructions.
✔️ Men with visibly enlarged or puffy breast tissue
✔️ Those experiencing breast tenderness, swelling, or discomfort
✔️ Adults over 18 whose chest development is complete
✔️ Patients with glandular enlargement not improving with weight loss
✔️ Individuals affected by hormonal changes or past steroid use
✔️ Men with stable weight and realistic expectations
✔️ Non-smokers or those willing to stop smoking temporarily
✔️ Those seeking a firmer, more masculine chest contour
✔️ Individuals experiencing asymmetry or uneven chest fullness
✔️ Patients whose gynecomastia impacts confidence, posture, or clothing choices
📝 Consultation & Preparation
Consultation focuses on determining the underlying cause of gynecomastia, evaluating chest structure, and selecting the correct treatment technique. Memorial’s surgeons tailor the plan to each patient’s unique anatomy.
✔️ Comprehensive physical examination and assessment of glandular vs. fatty tissue
✔️ Review of medical history including hormones, medications, supplements, and past conditions
✔️ Determination of whether Vaser, Laser, or Excision technique is most suitable
✔️ Required preoperative tests including blood work and anesthesia clearance
✔️ Avoiding food and drinks for at least 6 hours before surgery
✔️ Stopping smoking and alcohol to support healing
✔️ Discontinuing blood thinners and herbal supplements 1 week before surgery
✔️ Discussion of postoperative expectations, garment use, and recovery timeline
🩺 Recovery & Aftercare
Recovery after gynecomastia surgery is generally smooth, especially when postoperative instructions are followed. Wearing compression garments helps minimize swelling and supports chest contouring.
✔️ Use of prescribed antibiotics and pain medications exactly as directed
✔️ Resting at home for 1–2 weeks with gradual return to activities
✔️ Wearing a medical compression garment continuously for 2–3 weeks
✔️ Avoiding heavy exercise and chest-focused workouts for 2 months
✔️ Taking warm showers only after 1 week when approved by the surgeon
✔️ Avoiding movements that strain the chest and arm muscles
✔️ Stopping smoking to prevent delayed healing and scar complications
✔️ Attending all follow-up appointments for proper healing assessment
