Answer: Compression garment I recommend my patients wear their garments for a minimum of 3 weeks if not a lot of redundant skin following liposuction male breast reduction to a maximum of 6 weeks. To be effective the garment needs to fit snug but not too tight as to cause pressure problems (inspect your skin if discomfort and when skin is exposed), or prevent you from sleeping. As the edema resolves it is common for patients to switch to a smaller garment that fits - A Spanx type garment would work rather than ordering one or paying more at your doctor;'s office.Male Breast Reduction (Gynecomastia Reduction) by liposuction requires compression garments for three main reasons:it restricts the amount of edema that forms and hastens its resolution by mechanical pressureIt decreases the amount of bruisingIt assists the loose skin in retracting or shrinking

Answer: Hematoma after gynecomastia surgery? Thank you for your question. Hematoma is a known risk factor for gynecomastia surgery. It should be known that at any time surgery on the breast be it in a man or woman one can get swelling, hematoma, or just fluid build up called seroma. Sometimes this can be managed by intermittent aspiration. Sometimes a patient may have a drain tube placed to manage this. It should resolve with time. Continue to see your surgeon and be patient. Good luck.

Answer: Hematoma after gynecomastia Thanks for your question. Hematoma can happen after any surgery; it is a known complication. With gynecomastia surgery, there is a potential space which can accumulate fluid. You did not say whether this was done by liposuction alone, or whether resection of the tissue through an incision occurred also. It seem like the hematoma was treated appropriately, and the use of compression post aspiration may help. A common cause of hematoma is increasing the level of activity too early. In general, limiting strenuous activity and use of compression may help. Sometimes aspiration may be needed a few times if the fluid recurs. Follow the advice and direction of your plastic surgeon.
