Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs):
Gynecomastia occurs when hormone imbalances lead to breast tissue growth in men. Common triggers include puberty, aging, certain medications, and underlying medical conditions.
The procedure itself isn't painful, as you'll be under anesthesia. Afterward, mild discomfort or swelling is normal but manageable with medication.
Typically, gynecomastia does not return after surgery, especially if you maintain a stable weight and healthy lifestyle. However, significant weight gain or hormonal issues might cause breast tissue to redevelop.
Most patients return to normal activities within a few weeks, though strenuous exercise should be avoided for 4-6 weeks. Dr. Harris will provide detailed instructions tailored to your specific needs.
