What type of diet would you recommend to obtain and maintain the best post-surgical results?
Answer: Weight loss with gynecomastia surgery Gynecomastia (and even liposuction) aren't weight loss tools. The amount of weight lost from these procedures is small (just a few pounds). As far as diet is concerned, I would recommend a well balanced diet. Gynecomastia is breast tissue not fat. Things like soy products may exacerbate it so it may be a good idea to avoid soy.Nothing fancy is necessary. Once the gland is excised it should be a permanent result.

Answer: Not weight loss method The amount of weight lost from a male breast reduction is minimal. It's more about recontouring the area to make it more aesthetically pleasing. It could be from mere grams to just a couple of pounds. The procedure shouldn't be perceived as a weight loss method.After your surgery, you should follow a healthy diet that's well-balanced. There really is no special diet. Just eat wisely and continue exercising to maintain your results.

Answer: Weight loss after gynecomastia surgery
Depending on the extent of your gynecomastia, little weight is lost with the procedure. It's best to be near your ideal body weight going into surgery in order to get the best, most lasting results. The diet that is best is the diet that you can maintain--something that's balanced and complete, and one which you can live with. Fad diets are not useful except for short-term weight reduction, since they tend not to be sustainable in the long-term.

Answer: Weight loss after gynecomastia surgery A very small amount of gram weight is removed in gynecomastia surgery and there would be a minimal, if any, weight loss. Since you are inquiring about diet post-operatively, I would be concerned as to whether you need to lose weight prior to undergoing the procedure as a significant weight loss after surgery may alter the result.
