If the breast reduction technique uses liposuction, the incisions will be minimal and will be placed around or near the areola. The plastic surgeon will make every effort when it comes to making the incisions and suturing to minimize the effects of scarring.
What Is Gynecomastia Surgery?
While they’re typically referred to as “man boobs,” gynecomastia is a true medical condition that causes men or boys to grow extra breast tissue.
While there are many reasons that cause this condition, there are few solutions for it. At Cosmetic Surgery Affiliates, we offer gynecomastia surgery in Oklahoma City to reduce gynecomastia and restore a masculine, contoured look.

What To Expect From Gynecomastia Surgery
Consultation
Your first appointment with our team will be a one-on-one consultation. You’ll get the opportunity to sit down with one of our doctors, who will sit and listen while you describe what you would like to change about your body. If tests and medications prove ineffective at treating the tissue, then your doctor might recommend surgery.
Anesthesia
After deciding that gynecomastia surgery in Oklahoma City is the right option for you, your doctor will talk with you about what the treatment process will look like. Since we use both general anesthesia and IV sedation, your provider will discuss both options with you and you’ll choose one based on your doctor’s recommendation and your preferences.
Procedure
Your doctor makes small incisions surrounding the areola and inserts suction tubes (cannulas) to extract fat and breast tissues. When the enlargement is severe, they make a longer incision to excise breast tissues and loose skin. Your doctor may also use skin tightening and reposition the nipples so that they are proportional to the new chest shape.
Recovery
Once your surgery is over, your doctor will review your post-care instructions with you once more before helping you schedule your follow-up appointment. You will wear a compression garment for about 2 weeks to help with swelling and reshaping and can return to most normal activities after a few days.
