Male Breast (Gynecomastia) Surgery in Korea

“What Is Male Breast Gynecomastia Surgery?”

Male Breast (Gynecomastia) Surgery is a specialized male contouring procedure that corrects enlarged, feminine male breasts caused by excess breast gland tissue, fat, or loose skin. Gynecomastia is a common condition affecting men of all ages, causing physical discomfort and psychological distress – this surgery removes excess gland/fat tissue, tightens skin, and restores a flat, firm, masculine chest contour.

VIP Gynecomastia Surgery uses the advanced **Minimally Invasive Combined Technique** (liposuction + gland resection) with tiny hidden incisions, offering scarless, permanent results that restore male chest confidence with fast recovery.

Doctor’s Message

“Gynecomastia is a common male concern that deeply affects confidence and daily life. It’s not a ‘fat issue’ – most cases involve excess gland tissue that can’t be fixed with diet or exercise. At VIP, we customize every surgery: using minimally invasive liposuction for fatty gynecomastia, combined with precise gland removal for glandular cases, all through tiny hidden incisions. Our goal is a completely flat, firm, natural masculine chest with no visible scars.”

Before & After

* Temporary side effects include mild chest swelling, bruising, soreness, or tightness (resolves in 1-2 weeks). Incisions are tiny and hidden (nipple edge/chest crease), fading completely over 3-6 months with no visible scars. Surgery corrects the root cause of gynecomastia with permanent results and no recurrence. Results are fully visible after swelling subsides (1-2 months), revealing a flat, firm masculine chest. Wear compression garment for 3-4 weeks post-op and avoid intense upper body exercise for 1 month. Please discuss all risks with your surgeon before surgery.

Post-Operative Care

• Wear medical compression garment 24/7 for 3-4 weeks
• Avoid upper body exercise, weight training for 1 month
• Apply cold compresses for 3-5 days to reduce swelling
• Sleep on back (no side sleeping) for 2 weeks
• Avoid alcohol, smoking, and spicy food for 3 weeks
• Keep incision area clean & dry to minimize scarring
• Regular follow-up checks for healing progress
