Gynecomastia Surgery in Korea
Find out whether an enlarged male chest is caused by gland, fat, loose skin or a combination before choosing surgery.
先評估，再決定。提供合理預期，不施壓接受療程。
這能處理什麼問題？
Gynecomastia can affect one or both sides and may involve firm glandular tissue, fat, skin excess or nipple projection. A chest that looks enlarged is not automatically treated in the same way for every patient.
不同狀況可能外觀相似
A visible concern does not always have a single cause. The first consultation should identify the underlying anatomy, tissue characteristics, previous treatment and the outcome the patient actually expects.
- True glandular gynecomastia
- Fat-predominant pseudogynecomastia
- Mixed gland and fat
- Skin excess after weight loss
- Asymmetry or unilateral enlargement
- Medication, hormone or medical causes
可能討論的治療選項
- Observation or medical reviewAppropriate when the condition is recent, medication-related, pubertal or requires endocrine assessment.
- LiposuctionReduces fat but may not adequately remove firm gland beneath the areola.
- Direct gland excisionRemoves glandular tissue through an incision, often at the areolar border.
- Combined liposuction and gland excisionCommonly considered when both fat and gland are present.
- Skin reduction or nipple repositioningMay be needed in severe cases or after major weight loss.
- Revision surgeryAddresses residual gland, contour depression, scar or asymmetry.
哪些人可能適合？
Candidates usually have a stable chest appearance, stable weight and realistic expectations about scars, symmetry and recovery. New, painful or unilateral enlargement may require medical evaluation before cosmetic surgery.
可期待的變化與重要限制
Surgery can flatten and reshape the chest but cannot guarantee perfect symmetry, invisible scars or a bodybuilder contour. Excessive gland removal can create a crater deformity, while inadequate removal may leave residual fullness.
恢復與國際旅行
Compression garments and activity restriction are common. The timing of drain removal, wound review, showering, exercise and flying must be decided by the surgeon. A patient should not leave Korea before the recommended early assessment.
Often several days to more than one week depending on extent, drains and surgeon instructions.
