When to Limit Exercise Before Male Breast Reduction Surgery?

If I'm having male breast reduction liposuction, how should I moderate or limit my exercise routine leading up to the surgery?

A: Exercise Regimen Before Male Breast Reduction

Active exercise before your surgery is a good idea so that you will be in good aerobic shape for the procedure.  Afterwards you will need to follow your surgeon's instructions so as not to stir up bleeding in the early phase of healing.

How Long could Teenage Boys Suffer from Male Boobs, when Should Surgery Be Considered?

When do most hormones balance for teenage boys and the breasts recede? When would be the earliest age that a teenager could have a male breast reduction? In which cases would surgery be a recommended alternative?

A: Male Breast Enlargement in Teenagers

It is very common for teenage boys to have transient swelling of their "breast" tissue as they are at the end of puiberty.  When adult leevels of testosterone are achieved the swelling usually goes away.  If the enlargement lasts for more than one year it is likely to be permanent and will need surgery to correct.  The age of having adult levels of testosterone will vary , but it is good to be patient for one year to see if the enlargemnt will disappear without a surgery.
