Male breast reduction surgery, or gynecomastia surgery, is a procedure that alters the shape and size of the breast tissue. Gynecomastia is a condition in which the male breast tissue enlarges. It usually occurs in both breasts, though it is not uncommon for some people to experience unilateral or asymmetrical breasts. For those who are looking for men’s breast reduction in Toronto, the goal is often to reshape and size the male breast tissue to a more natural size.

Gynecomastia correction surgery in Toronto may be the right decision for you in several cases:

• You are in overall good health
• You are at your ideal weight or close to it
• You want to contour your chest
• You are over the age of 20, so gynecomastia caused by puberty resolves itself while hormones naturally stabilize.

Male breast reduction surgery is an opportunity to adjust the size and shape of your breasts, but there are side effects. Meet with your plastic surgeon to discuss any risk factors to your health or well-being.

The best way to find out if you are a good candidate for this procedure and if it will help you is to set up a consultation with a plastic surgeon. As one of the best gynecomastia surgeons in Toronto, Dr. Julie Khanna can provide you with insight, support, and honesty about what you can expect and achieve through male breast reduction surgery.

Dr. Khanna’s personalized approach and commitment to each patient’s specific needs enable you to get the support right for your needs. Set up a consultation to establish a rapport with Dr. Khanna to learn what you can expect from this plastic surgery option.

When you set up a consultation in Toronto for gynecomastia surgery, we will provide a full examination and explanation of the steps we will take to offer improvement to your breast size. The following is what most people can expect from the process.

Anesthesia

You will have intravenous sedation and general anesthesia for this procedure. That ensures you do not feel any discomfort.

Surgical Procedure

One of several types of treatment are then applied, depending on what your plastic surgeon recommends for your specific needs.

• Liposuction method: Your surgeon will use liposuction to remove excess fatty tissue in this area. This is done through the insertion of a cannula into small incisions. The surgeon moves the cannula back and forth to remove the fat.
• Excision technique: In this method, often used when glandular breast tissue and excess skin exist, the tissue is removed fully through a surgical incision. This excision occurs along the areola, reducing it or repositioning it to create a more natural contour. This breast gland tissue removal can be a bit more significant, reducing more of the tissue present.

Many times, your doctor will use both methods at the same time. Your surgeon will provide you with insight into what methods are likely best for you during your initial consultation. Breast reduction procedure options are dependent on the cause of the condition and the amount of change desired.

The breast reduction procedure is custom to your body’s needs. Most of the time, this procedure takes 1 or 2 hours to complete, and sometimes less, depending on the type of plastic surgery needed. There is also the need for some post-op time to recover from the anesthesia.

Like breast enlargement, any type of breast reconstruction procedure will create changes to the body, including scars. However, with the help of your plastic surgeon’s careful placement of incisions and careful recovery procedures, most of those scars are very hard to notice. They can be hidden well in many situations.

Post-op, you will have some time to recover before going home. Your body will need time to heal at this point, and we will provide you with very specific information about what to do and what not to do. Some of the most common recommendations include:

• Wearing a compression garment: This will help to support proper healing and reduce discomfort. It is usually worn for 4 to 6 weeks.
• Do not engage in any strenuous activities during this healing process. That includes no lifting, pulling, pushing, or exercise.
• It is normal to experience some fluid retention in the treatment area. It should pass naturally within a few days.
• You may feel discomfort and irritability for several days. Most people feel limited to no discomfort within 10 days to 2 weeks of the procedure. You may be given some prescription medications to help with the pain.

Also note that about 6 weeks before your surgery, you will have a pre-operative appointment with our team at ICLS. During this meeting, you will learn everything you need to know about your recovery process, care steps, and any pre-operative care you need to consider.

We aim to provide you with the resources and knowledge you need to achieve the best overall recovery with the desired results.

There are some potential side effects that can occur in those who have gynecomastia surgery. Most side effects are minor. The most common side effects include:

• Infection
• Scarring
• Pain and discomfort
• Bleeding
• Thrombus
• Nipples that are uneven
• Hematomas
• Skin discoloration

If you experience any type of side effects during the recovery phase, do not wait to reach out to your surgeon. Our team will answer any questions and offer strategies to help you avoid complications right away.

While there are many potential side effects, this is considered a safe procedure for many people. When you meet with Dr. Khanna, we will discuss any risk factors for you. You can also expect Dr. Khanna’s experience, expertise, and approach to minimize the risk of adverse effects on your health and well-being.
