Restore a Masculine Chest with Dr. Tony
What Is Gynecomastia Surgery?
Gynecomastia surgery is a specialized procedure designed to reduce excess glandular tissue, fat, and/or skin in the male chest area, reshaping the chest to a flatter, firmer, more masculine contour.

The Procedure & Incision Options
Anesthesia & setting
The procedure is performed under general anesthesia in our accredited surgical center.
Technique
In many patients, liposuction addresses excess fatty tissue; in denser glandular cases, direct removal through a small incision is required.
Incision placement
Common options include:
- Sub-areolar (along lower border of nipple)
- Inframammary crease
- Hidden crease in chest fold
Duration
Surgery typically takes 1 to 2 hours depending on severity and combination technique.
Closure
Fine, dissolvable sutures are used to promote smooth healing and minimize visible scars.
Healing & Recovery Timeline
| Timeframe | What to Expect | Activity Restrictions |
|---|---|---|
| Day 0–2 | Swelling, bruising, mild discomfort, dressings in place | Rest, light walking only |
| Days 3–7 | Gradual reduction in discomfort, drains (if used) often removed | Wear compression garment; avoid lifting arms above chest level |
| Week 1–2 | You’ll feel better; swelling still persists | Most patients can resume desk work or light non-strenuous tasks |
| Weeks 3–4 | Continued improvement; scarring begins to mature | Gradual return to normal movements, but avoid chest straining |
| Weeks 6–8+ | Majority of swelling resolved; final contour becomes visible | Return to full gym workouts (light to moderate), heavy chest training with care |
| 3–6 months onward | Residual swelling resolves, scars fade | Full confidence in aesthetic outcome |
Most patients return to work in 5–10 days, depending on job demands and comfort. Light cardio can often begin at 2–3 weeks; chest or heavy upper body training is typically held off until 6–8 weeks or cleared by Dr. Tony.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is gynecomastia surgery safe?
Yes, breast augmentation is a safe procedure when performed by an experienced and qualified surgeon like Dr. Tony. We use only FDA-approved implants and adhere to the highest standards of care. Safety is our top priority, and we’ll discuss all aspects of the procedure to ensure you feel confident and well-informed. Our consultations cost a nominal fee of $50 which is applied toward the cost of surgery.
Will there be visible scars?
Scarring is minimized by placing incisions in natural creases or near the areola. Over time, scars typically fade and blend in with the surrounding skin.
Can gynecomastia recur?
If hormonal balance is stable and body weight remains steady, recurrence is rare. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle helps preserve results.
When will I see the final results?
While much of the contour is visible by 6–8 weeks, subtle improvements may continue up to 6 months as swelling fully resolves.
