Do you suffer from overly prominent male breasts? With gynecomastia surgery in Dortmund, our highly qualified team of specialists at UNIQAESTHETICS® can help you achieve a flatter and more masculine-looking chest area. We attach great importance to achieving a convincing result that looks as natural as possible.
A clearly defined, masculine-looking chest area is an ideal of beauty that many men desire. For various reasons, however, the exact opposite can occur, namely unwanted growth of the breasts in men, which in pronounced cases evokes associations with a female breast. This often affects the self-image of those affected, which is characterized by a masculine role perception. Low self-confidence and reduced quality of life are often the consequences for affected men. Enlarged male breasts can be caused either by an enlargement of the mammary gland (true gynecomastia) or by the accumulation of fatty tissue (pseudogynecomastia), whereby obesity can also play a significant role. However, the most common cause of gynecomastia is a hormonal change that typically occurs during puberty. This adolescent breast protrusion usually disappears within a few years, but in some cases it does not. If this is the case, gynecomastia surgery can help in adulthood.
If you decide to have gynecomastia surgery at UNIQAESTHETICS®, our specialists will take a detailed look at your concerns and your clinical picture. This includes an examination of the breast and clarification of whether it is a hormonal disorder. If gynecomastia surgery is appropriate in your case, you will be informed in detail about all the prospects of success and risks in a detailed consultation.
You will find out which surgical technique is suitable for you depending on the examination findings. Liposuction, for example, removes unnecessary fatty tissue, while at the same time overstretched skin can be removed through an inconspicuous incision. Both the type of anesthesia and the need for an inpatient stay depend on the chosen surgical technique. You should allow a few weeks for recovery after the procedure. Our team of specialists will be happy to advise you in a detailed and non-binding consultation – it is best to book a non-binding appointment directly!
