What is Male Chest Reduction?

Male chest reduction, also known as gynecomastia surgery, is a cosmetic procedure designed to remove excess breast tissue and fat in men. This condition, known as gynecomastia, can affect one or both sides of the chest and may be caused by hormonal changes, genetics, obesity, or medication side effects.

At Transform, our minimally invasive approach offers long-lasting results with minimal scarring—helping you achieve a flatter, firmer, and more masculine chest contour.

What Happens During Surgery?

Gynecomastia surgery is typically performed under local anaesthetic with or without sedation, making it a safe and comfortable experience with a faster recovery time. You’ll remain awake but relaxed, and the chest area will be completely numb during the procedure.

Here’s what to expect:

  • Small incisions are made either around the areola or within natural chest creases for discreet healing.
  • Liposuction may be used to remove excess fat.
  • Glandular tissue and skin are removed if necessary to achieve a natural-looking, sculpted result.
  • The procedure usually takes 1 to 2 hours.

After surgery, a compression garment is provided to support healing and maintain your new shape.

Is Male Chest Reduction Right for Me?​

You may be a good candidate if:

  • You are in good general health.
  • Your breast enlargement has remained stable.
  • You have realistic expectations about the outcome.
  • You are not significantly overweight.

This procedure is not a substitute for weight loss but is ideal for treating excess tissue that doesn’t respond to exercise.

  • Restores a natural, masculine chest contour
  • Improves self-confidence and body image
  • Performed under local anaesthetic—less risk, faster recovery
  • Minimal scarring with discreet incision techniques
  • Permanent results when combined with a healthy lifestyle

Like all surgical procedures, male chest reduction carries some risks, such as:

  • Temporary swelling or bruising
  • Minor asymmetry or scarring
  • Temporary changes in nipple sensation

Following our detailed aftercare instructions greatly reduces the chance of complications.
