Gynecomastia can be caused by excess fat or glandular tissue, or a combination of both. Gynecomastia cannot be prevented, but it can be corrected with corrective procedures such as male breast reduction, mastectomy, or liposuction. However, it is very important to have an endocrinologist perform the examination when diagnosing gynecomastia to rule out other more serious causes of breast enlargement.
Candidates for breast reduction surgery are healthy patients, over 18 years of age, who have developed a self-esteem problem due to their physical appearance.
It is important to emphasize that it is necessary for the patient to have objective expectations of the results of the procedure, with an understanding of all the advantages and disadvantages that the surgeon will inform them about during the consultation.
The first step is a preoperative examination of the patient, which determines the type of gynecomastia. The approach to each patient is strictly individual. A thorough family and personal history is taken to try to isolate the possible cause of gynecomastia. Come to the interview and consultation at the Bagatin Polyclinic prepared to talk about your health. You must talk about illnesses you have had, your current health condition, drug allergies, breast biopsies, and medications you are taking. It is important to provide complete information.
You should stop smoking four to six weeks before the procedure. Two weeks before, stop taking aspirin, herbal preparations or any other supplements and certain medications that prevent inflammation, as their content can cause significant bleeding.
12 to 24 hours before the procedure: Be sure to use antibacterial soap and leave the antibacterial soap lather on the area of the body that will undergo the procedure for about 10 minutes the evening before, the day before the procedure, and the morning after. Scrub your breasts and underarms well with antibacterial soap
Eight hours before surgery: do not eat or drink and remove all jewelry.
Male breast reduction surgery takes two to four hours, after which you are placed in a recovery room until the next morning. The surgery is performed under general anesthesia, which means you are asleep during the procedure. You can find out more about the anesthesiology examination at our Polyclinic and the differences between general and local anesthesia here . After the operation, you will be given a strong painkiller intravenously. Patients who are more sensitive to painkillers may experience nausea, so please inform the nurse immediately when you wake up from the anesthesia.
An incision is made on the periphery of the areola and the glandular tissue is surgically removed. When there is a larger volume of gland, fat, and excess skin, sometimes an incision around the areola is not enough, but it needs to be extended beyond the periareolar region to the right, left, both sides, or below. Less complex cases with a predominance of fat tissue can be completely corrected with liposuction, which is usually the first choice method in the treatment of gynecomastia.
At the Bagatin Polyclinic, you will receive written instructions regarding the use of antibiotics if necessary, analgesics and anti-inflammatory drugs, and the appointment of a follow-up examination. For the first week after surgery, you should avoid exercising, swimming, and other intense physical activities. Only light exercises are allowed.
Wear a light corset to protect the wound. Swelling usually subsides in 3 to 5 weeks. After 10 to 14 days, you will come for a check-up and removal of stitches. Patients who are not from Zagreb are advised to stay in the city as this is a complex surgery. It is important that your doctor monitors your recovery.
Like any other surgical procedure, male breast reduction is associated with certain risks and complications regardless of the maximum precautions taken. Possible complications include bleeding, infections, and longer wound healing times.
The professional staff of the Bagatin Polyclinic takes all precautions to minimize the risks of postoperative complications, however, a great deal of responsibility for possible risks also lies with the patients.
The package includes: preoperative examination by an anesthesiologist, surgery under general anesthesia, a short stay at the Bagatin Polyclinic, necessary medications (antibiotics, analgesics), check-ups and dressings in the first postoperative days, removal of stitches, and necessary check-ups up to 6 months after the procedure.
The package does not include: the first consultation with a doctor, blood tests, ECG, chest X-ray, or an examination by an internist, the cost of one or more overnight stays, costs before admission to the Bagatin Polyclinic, telephone costs, medications that you will take at home, consultations with other specialists such as a specialist for diabetes, asthma, high blood pressure, thyroid, allergy medicine, heart medicine, etc.
