The Cost of Surgery :The Cost of Surgery Most Insurance Carriers Won’t cover the procedure. It’s considered cosmetic in nature.
The Cost of Surgery :The Cost of Surgery On average, you can expect to pay between $3000 and $5000 for surgery in the United States.
That doesn’t include anesthesia which will add at least another $2000 and your potential hospital stay. Other costs will include compression vests for post surgery, lab tests and all the little extras that hospitals tally up.
The Cost of Surgery :The Cost of Surgery My recommendation is to allocate at least $7500 (maximum) if you decide to opt in for this procedure. That should cover all your bases.
The Procedure :The Procedure Today Gynecomastia surgery is a fairly common procedure. So long as your doctor is experienced and proficient, side-effects should be minimal.
However, it is important to understand that no surgical procedure comes without some sort of price whether it be monetary or physical.
The Procedure :The Procedure The surgery consists of removing fatty and glandular tissue from around the breast. In some cases the excess skin will have to be removed as well.
After surgery the breast will have a flatter and firmer appearance. The surgery can be performed on men of any age but usually with adolescents doctors recommend waiting to see if the problem is temporary and corrects itself.
The Procedure :The Procedure In most cases your doctor will recommend an exercise program before surgery, especially if you’re considered overweight or have a higher body fat ratio.
What to Expect :What to Expect With any surgical procedure, infection and bleeding can be a hazard. Scarring is also possible along with swelling.
Be aware that scarring will be a factor with surgery in most cases. But if the doctor is good, the scars should be small and unnoticeable.
What to Expect :What to Expect Definitely avoid strenuous physical activity after the surgery for at least 6 weeks. This should be common sense but I like to give everyone the heads up anyway.
Also, you'll want to avoid direct sunlight to the chest area while you are healing. Sunlight may make scarred tissue discolored and more obvious.
What to Expect :What to Expect You may experience numbness in the surrounding areas of the breast tissue, especially on or near the nipples after surgery. In most cases, this sensation dissipates after about a year.
The initial recovery period is about 7 to 10 days after the procedure. Sometimes drains are used to help make the swelling go down faster. They will typically remain in for about three days after which they will be removed at your first post-op appointment.
What to Expect :What to Expect Total recovery time can vary from patient to patient. Most patients can expect to be fully healed by 3-6 months.
At this point most or all of the bruising and swelling should be gone and the scars will have faded significantly.
My Thoughts… :My Thoughts… Let’s start with the most obvious drawback…the cost of surgery. If you have an extra $7500 “bones” to burn then maybe a Gynecomastia procedure is a viable option for you.
Most people, however, don’t have that kind of scratch laying around. So what do you do?
My Recommendation :My Recommendation Your best bet is to try to get rid of Gynecomastia Naturally first.
You can do this using a VERY specific regimen of diet, exercise and natural hormonal supplementation.
