Is it necessary to be hospitalised after gynaecomastia surgery and how long should one wear compression garments?

Thank you for your question.All #gynecomastia #surgeries are #outpatient procedures done either in he office or a certified outpatient #surgery facility meaning you can have surgery and go home the same day without being hospitalized.  You will be required to wear a #compression #garment after
surgery for the next few weeks. The extra pressure this garment provides
helps reduce swelling and discomfort. You should not remove this garment at all
until the second or third day after surgery. After that, feel free to remove
the garment temporarily for showering or laundering. We want you to have
circumferential pressure for 4-6 weeks, but you may switch to an exercise compression
garment when advised.Ask your #BoardCertified #PlasticSurgeon for more information on what they advise during the #healing process.

Dear Rohin, Gynecomastia Correction is essentially a day care procedure. You can get operated in the morning and get discharged by afternoon or late evening. For the 1st 1 month we recommend that you wear compression garments at all times and for 8 hours a day for the next 15 days. 

Most gynecomastia surgeries are performed as an outpatient surgical procedure.  However, some may opt for an overnight stay.Compression garments are typically worn 3-6 weeks, although each surgeon has his own recommendations. Good luck and best wishes.
