Can I get rid of gynecomastia naturally?

Following a healthy lifestyle through diet and exercise can help keep your body lean and trim. But if you find yourself developing excess breast tissue despite regular exercise then you may have an underlying hormonal imbalance. In this case, Vaser Liposuction is a permanent male breast reduction treatment that will restore a more masculine appearance to the male chest.

What can I expect from male breast reduction surgery in Adelaide?

Gynaecomastia surgery is performed under light sedation in our state-of-the art surgical facility. After prepping the treatment area, a small incision is made to allow a cannula (blunt tip instrument) to be inserted. The cannula emits ultrasound energy which liquefies fat cells before they are suctioned away. The cosmetic surgeon then precisely removes the excess male breast tissue for permanent results.

Is Vaser Liposuction safe?

We consider Vaser to be the safest liposuction procedure available. In fact, this technique carries fewer health risks because general anesthetic is not used. Furthermore, the chances of developing serious complications and even minor side-effects like bruising and swelling are greatly reduced. The ultrasound energy also produces a mild skin-tightening effect, helping to reduce excess skin laxity.

What is the recovery like?

Vaser Liposuction is a day surgery with minimal downtime. It’s normal to have some swelling and tenderness immediately after and most patients can resume their normal activities in a couple of days. You’ll be prescribed pain medication and a compression garment to assist with healing process.

How much does the Vaser breast reduction procedure cost?

The cost to permanently address your man boobs can vary from patient to patient. Male breast reduction is a surgical procedure so a number of factors will determine the price. Vaser gynecomastia treatments start at $3,000 and up. During your initial consultation we’ll provide you with an exact quote and treatment details.
