Male Breast Reduction
Gynecomastia is a condition in which male breasts are enlarged. Enlarged male breasts may result from hormonal changes, heredity, disease, or the use of certain drugs. Gynecomastia can lead to embarrassment and have many negative effects on a man’s self-esteem and social life. To eliminate this excess tissue and restore a more masculine chest appearance, Estehair Medical in London performs gynecomastia surgery.

What can male breast reduction surgery do for your appearance?
Gynecomastia surgery in our leading plastic surgery clinic in London removes excess breast tissue to achieve a more defined chest — ultimately revealing more masculine and distinguished contours. Gynecomastia can affect both breasts (bilateral), or it may affect just one breast (unilateral).
For those with unilateral gynecomastia, this procedure can create pectorals that are as similar as possible.
What happens during male breast reduction surgery?
During gynecomastia at Estehair Medical, we focus on excess fat tissue, excess glandular tissue, or both. Our lead surgeon will evaluate your individual condition and discuss the best options to achieve your goals.
In some cases, liposuction and tissue extraction may be used together:
Liposuction: Removes excess fat tissue
- A thin, hollow tube is inserted through small incisions and used to suction out fat
- Ideal for patients with good skin quality
- Results in inconspicuous scarring
Tissue Extraction: Removes excess glandular tissue
- An incision along the border of the areola is used to excise excess glandular tissue
- If necessary, excess skin can be removed (results in scars that blend in with the natural border of the areola)
Who qualifies for male breast reduction?
Gynecomastia surgery in London is most commonly performed for young adult males between 18 and 30 years of age. Patients should be physically mature before undergoing the procedure. Our experienced medical team will evaluate whether a younger patient is a candidate during an individualized consultation.
Recovering from Male Breast Reduction
As with all surgical procedures, there is a recovery process after gynecomastia surgery at Estehair Medical to ensure you heal properly.
1 to 5 Days
The chest will be bandaged and wrapped with a compression vest. Drains will be placed under the arms to remove excess fluids and minimize swelling for the first 3 to 5 days. Pain medication will be prescribed to ease any swelling and discomfort.
1 Week
Patients return to work after 4 to 7 days. However, patients should avoid physical activity and exercise at this time.
1 to 3 Months
Contouring and definition will improve, with any skin laxity beginning to retract. Tissue retraction, definition, and contouring will continue to improve.

I have been attending Este clinic in Harrow for a while now and I must give credit where credit is due. I have never ever seen such competent and friendly staff anywhere like I see here. The girls here make my day and I feel like my week isn't complete until I've seen them. They're all amazing but i see Ilayda, Ezra, Ida and Dilyana on a weekly basis and they are more like my sisters rather than staff who are treating me.
Ida is like an older sister who is so calm and composed. She makes me feel at home and is always offering me a coffee. Also she makes the BEST coffee. First impressions really mean alot and Ida was the first person who treated me when I came here.
Dilyana is so bubbly and funny that even if you are having a bad day she will cheer you up. She is so confident that you automatically want to be like her.
Naomi is so funny and smart at the same time. Ezra is a sweetheart who will give you the best advice like a best friend. If you have gone through a breakup, Naomi and Ezra are the ones to be around!
And finally Ilayda - she is one of the most sweetest and kind hearted people I've ever met and she makes me feel so comfortable during my sessions. She is exactly what a manager should be and so beautiful in every way.
Because of my experience at Este I have recommended them to my friends, family and even followers on social media because of how great they are. I will continue my treatment here only because of the amazing staff and the work they do.
Thankyou so much Este clinic for everything you do. So much better than other clinics I've been to.

I have been going Este hair medical 2020 and the staff are always so helpful and polite. Special mention to Dilyana who has always been so supportive and with her help and patience I finally went to Turkey and got a hair transplant. Results look great so far and she has been fantastic throughout the after care. Highly recommend this clinic.
