I have checked out with some doctors and they say that I don't have glandular growth and that i only have excess fat on the chest,so i would like to know if only liposuction would be enough?

Answer: Only liposuction without gland excision sufficient for lipomastia? Accurate diagnosis would necessitate physical examination. It IS important to differentiate as uncomfortable as gynecomastia ( excess breast tissue) from lipomastia ( otherwise known as pseudo-gynecomastia or excess adipose tissue of chest wall). Treatment will differ depending on diagnosis. Generally speaking, liposuction surgery alone is useful to treat lipomastia (an enlarged chest secondary to adipose tissue); rarely does it suffices as the only modality of treatment when it comes to treating true gynecomastia. Most patients with gynecomastia benefit from direct excision of glandular tissue plus/minus peripheral liposuction surgery. My best suggestion: seek consultation with board-certified plastic surgeons who can demonstrate significant experience achieving the types of outcomes you will be pleased with. Best wishes.

Answer: ? only lipo for gynecomastia treatment In some cases there is no glandular tissue so liposuction alone can give you the results that you want but this is not the case most of the time. Sometimes the glandular tissue only becomes noticeable after liposuction. And the recurrence of the glandular tissue is higher when direct excision is not performed after liposuction. Thank you for your question
