How to Choose the Best Plastic Surgeon for Gynecomastia Surgery?

While choosing the best plastic surgeon for gynecomastia, you should consider the following points.

1: Doctor’s Credentials

Check the doctor’s credentials, including his/her training, board certifications, valid practice license, malpractice claims, and disciplinary actions. Having a credible plastic surgeon for the treatment is crucial to ensure success.

2: Experience & Skills of the Surgeon

The experience of the surgeon improves with years of practice. Thus, it will be best if you choose a surgeon who has at least 8 to 10 years of experience in performing gynecomastia surgery. The years of practice signify how knowledgeable the surgeon is. With experience, surgery skills become superior, and the surgeon can easily identify and mitigate the risks associated with the procedure.

Ask about the number of male breast reduction surgeries the surgeon has performed in the past week or month. Analyze how confident the patient seems about demonstrating his/her skills and training.

3: Hospital/Clinic Affiliation

Find out whether the plastic surgeon has his/her own practice or works in association with a hospital. In both scenarios, the reputation of the treatment center matters significantly. The center must have advanced technology available to provide optimal care to the patients.

Along with the facilities available, you should also ensure that the hospital or clinic has ample medical and non-medical staff that can tend to the patients.

4: Check Reviews & Testimonials

You will find reviews and testimonials given by previous patients on the doctor’s or hospital’s website. These reviews will give you an insight into how the patients are treated and the quality of care they receive at the treatment center.

5: Questions to Ask A Gynecomastia Surgeon

Some questions that you should ask a gynecomastia surgeon during the initial consultation are-

  • When should I undergo surgery?
  • What are the risks and complications associated with the surgery?
  • How long do I need to stay in the hospital after surgery?
  • When can I resume work and other activities?
  • What are the chances of recurrence?
  • Is gynecomastia surgery covered by health insurance?

See how well the doctor communicates with you and answer these questions. A good doctor must be patient during consultations and listen to you properly to help you understand as much as possible about the procedure.

Signs That You Should Seek Treatment For Enlarged Breasts

As a result of hormonal imbalance, the breast tissues in males will exhibit the following symptoms-

  • There will be swelling in the chest region.
  • The tissue growth on both sides is very different.
  • There is pain or sensitivity in the breast and nipple.
  • A lump can be felt beneath the nipple.
  • There is discharge from one or both nipples.

Before recommending surgical treatment, the surgeon has to confirm that you have true gynecomastia. In some cases, the chest size increases due to fat deposits (pseudogynecomastia), which gives the impression of gynecomastia. And if only fat tissues are present, the surgeon will have to take a different approach to treatment.

If it is confirmed that you have both glandular tissue growth and fat deposits, then male breast reduction surgery, also known as gynecomastia surgery, will be performed.

Are you going through any of these symptoms?

The Bottom Line

You need to be proactive while seeking treatment for gynecomastia. If your doctor recommends nonsurgical treatment, do not trust him/her. Gynecomastia cannot be treated without surgery, and there are no FDA-approved medications available for its treatment.

The only effective treatment for gynecomastia is male breast reduction surgery, which involves combining gland excision and liposuction techniques. So, while you are discussing the treatment, validate every piece of information given to you during the consultation and then make a decision.

You can also contact Pristyn Care to get in touch with the best plastic surgeons in India. We have an in-house team of plastic surgeons who specialize in gynecomastia surgery.
