Gynecomastia Surgery in Mexico

Achieve a Masculine, Contoured Chest

Achieve a Masculine, Contoured Chest with Expert Care

Gynecomastia surgery (male breast reduction) removes excess glandular tissue and fat to create a flatter, more defined chest. Ideal for men affected by hormonal imbalance, weight changes, or genetics, this procedure is often paired with liposuction for optimal contour correction.

What Is Gynecomastia Surgery?

Gynecomastia surgery is a cosmetic procedure that eliminates excess breast tissue in men, restoring a firmer, more masculine chest appearance. It is designed to address enlarged male breasts caused by glandular tissue or excess fat, reduce persistent chest fullness that does not respond to diet or exercise, and improve uneven or unbalanced chest contours that can negatively impact self-confidence.

Who Is a Good Candidate?

Ideal candidates include men who:

  • Have persistent breast enlargement despite exercise or weight loss

  • Are in good health and at a stable weight

  • Want permanent chest reshaping

  • Aren’t facing active hormonal disorders that require medical management

The Gynecomastia Surgery Process – Pre‑Op, Surgery & Recovery

Pre-Operative Stage

The pre-operative stage begins with a medical consultation to determine whether the gynecomastia is caused primarily by excess fat, glandular tissue, or a combination of both. Lab tests are conducted to rule out any underlying hormonal imbalances that may contribute to the condition. Patients are also given specific pre-surgical guidelines, including avoiding tobacco, alcohol, and blood-thinning medications for at least two weeks prior to surgery to promote safe healing and optimal results.

During Surgery

Gynecomastia surgery is performed under either local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia, depending on the complexity of the case. Excess fat is typically removed through liposuction, while glandular tissue is excised using small, discreet incisions. The procedure usually lasts between 1.5 and 3 hours, with the exact duration varying based on the severity of the condition.

Post‑Operative Care & Recovery

After surgery, patients are required to wear a compression garment for approximately four to six weeks to minimize swelling and support proper chest contouring. Mild swelling and bruising are expected and generally subside within seven to fourteen days. Most patients can return to light activities within five to seven days, while full exercise routines are typically resumed after four to six weeks. Final chest definition continues to improve and becomes fully visible within three to six months following surgery.
