What Is Gynecomastia?
Feeling confident in your body can make a difference in how you carry yourself each day. For some men, excess breast tissue can cause discomfort and self-consciousness. Gynecomastia is a condition where men experience enlarged breast tissue. This can happen due to hormonal imbalances, genetics, or the side effects of certain medications. It is a common issue that can affect men of all ages, from teenagers to adults. The good news is that gynecomastia surgery at Plastic Surgery Institute of Dayton, Inc. offers a way to reduce this tissue and restore a more defined chest contour. This surgical option helps many men regain their confidence and feel more at ease in fitted clothing or during activities, like swimming and exercising. To learn more about your options, schedule a consultation with our Centerville, OH team.
How Is Gynecomastia Performed?
The gynecomastia procedure is tailored to meet the needs of each patient. During your consultation, the surgeon will evaluate your chest and discuss your goals. The surgery typically involves removing excess tissue and fat to create a flatter, more masculine chest appearance. The procedure starts with administering general anesthesia to ensure comfort throughout. Small incisions are made in discreet areas, often around the areola or along natural chest contours. The surgeon removes glandular tissue, fat, and sometimes excess skin. Liposuction may be used to contour the chest further. Once the tissue is removed, the incisions are closed with sutures. Most procedures are completed in one session, and recovery times are generally manageable. Patients typically return to normal activities within a few weeks with visible results becoming more apparent as swelling subsides.
What Are the Benefits of Gynecomastia Treatment?
Men dealing with gynecomastia often report both physical and emotional discomfort. Addressing this condition provides several benefits. Male gynecomastia surgery might be the right choice for you with the following advantages:
- Produces a slimmer, stronger look
- Recovery period is short
- Reshapes and contours the chest

- Elevates self-esteem and confidence
