Edit How can gynaecomastia be treated

<p><strong>What care should be taken post-operatively?</strong></p> <p>After the surgery, the chest is slightly swollen and bruised for some time and very difficult to assess the outcome of the operation in the early postoperative period. It is normally recommended that the patients should wear an elastic pressure garment continuously for a period of one to two weeks to reduce the swelling. The patients should not carry out any exercise for a period of about three weeks, particularly following an 'open' excision of the glandular tissue. Normal activities can be carried out by patients after about six weeks.</p> <p><strong>What are the complications involved in gynecomastia procedures?</strong></p> <p>The complications involved in this surgery are relatively rare. This normally includes an uneven contour to the chest, reduced nipple sensation, and inadequate removal of the breast tissue and asymmetry. If excision is performed rather than liposuction then a blood clot may form in less than 5 % of cases which may require an additional operation.</p> <p align="center"> </p>
