Gynecomastia surgery is a cosmetic procedure designed to reduce excess breast tissue in men. The surgery removes enlarged glandular tissue, excess fat, and in some cases, loose skin to create a flatter, firmer chest.
Depending on the severity of the condition, treatment may involve:
Liposuction to remove excess fat
Surgical excision to remove glandular tissue
A combination of both techniques
The goal is to restore a masculine chest contour with minimal visible scarring.
The surgical method is selected based on the grade and severity of gynecomastia.
Suitable for cases where excess fat is the primary cause. Small incisions are made, and fat is removed using specialized cannulas.
Recommended when firm glandular tissue is present. A small incision around the areola allows precise removal of dense tissue.
For moderate to severe gynecomastia, both liposuction and gland excision are performed to achieve optimal contouring.
In advanced cases with significant sagging, excess skin may be removed to achieve a firm chest appearance.
Gynecomastia surgery permanently removes excess glandular tissue and fat, resulting in a flatter and more masculine chest contour. The procedure improves body proportions and allows better clothing fit. Many patients experience increased confidence in social settings, gyms, and personal relationships.
When performed by an experienced surgeon like Dr. Pushpendra Kanaujia, results appear natural, well-contoured, and aligned with your body structure.
Your treatment journey begins with a comprehensive evaluation:
Physical examination of chest tissue
Assessment of skin elasticity
Review of medical history
Discussion of aesthetic goals
Explanation of surgical options
A personalized surgical plan is created for optimal and natural results.
Gynecomastia surgery is performed under general or local anesthesia with sedation in a fully equipped surgical facility.
During the procedure:
Excess fat is removed via liposuction (if required)
Glandular tissue is excised
Chest contour is sculpted
Incisions are closed carefully to reduce visible scarring
The procedure typically takes 1 to 2 hours depending on the complexity.
Most patients are discharged the same day.
After surgery:
Mild swelling and tightness are common
A compression garment is worn to support healing
Discomfort is manageable with prescribed medication
Light walking is encouraged early
Detailed post-operative instructions are provided to ensure smooth recovery and optimal results.
Recovery progresses gradually. During the first week, mild swelling and bruising may occur. Most patients return to desk work within 3 to 5 days. Light physical activity can resume in 1 to 2 weeks. Strenuous workouts and chest exercises are typically avoided for 4 to 6 weeks.
Swelling continues to decrease over several weeks, and final chest contour becomes visible within 2 to 3 months. Wearing a compression garment as advised helps enhance results and reduce swelling.

Yes, the results are typically permanent because the excess glandular tissue is surgically removed. However, significant weight gain, hormonal imbalance, or certain medications can affect long-term results.
Incisions are usually small and strategically placed around the areola or in natural chest creases. With proper healing and post-operative care, scars fade significantly over time.
Most patients return to desk work within 3–5 days. Light activities can resume in 1–2 weeks, while intense workouts should be avoided for about 4–6 weeks.
