Male breast reduction is one of the leading cosmetic surgery procedures for men, with the British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons (BAAPS) reporting a 1000% increase over the past five years!
The popular treatment to tackle man boobs – or ‘moobs’ – is at the forefront of the rise in male plastic surgery that has swept the industry. Not only have surgical techniques improved, but also a cultural shift has seen men far more willing to go under the knife.
Today men want to take care of themselves every bit as much as women do, and that means procedures like male breast reduction to help them look their best.
Male breast reduction explained
Also known as a gynaecomastia, the procedure removes excess glandular tissue or sagging skin from the breast area. Liposculpture can also be used to remodel the breast during the surgery.
A ‘moob job’ can be carried out using two different techniques:
- by making a small incision around or below the nipple and cutting away the unwanted tissue
- by breaking up and drawing off excess fat through a fine cannula. The cannula is inserted through a tiny incision near the armpit or under the nipple.
The surgeon will discuss the best method for you in a pre-surgery consultation and typically the procedure will only require a one-night stay in hospital.
