During the procedure, a plastic surgeon makes an incision along the lower edge of the areola to remove excess glandular tissue. If the enlargement is due to fatty tissue, liposuction is also performed. This approach ensures comprehensive treatment, with immediate, natural-looking results.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Gynaecomastia surgery essentials &#8211; What do I need to know?<\/h2>\n<p><b>Results: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Man\u2019s chest attains its final shape when the surgery-related swelling and incision marks disappear.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Swelling: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">s common after surgery but gradually subsides over several weeks.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Scars:<\/b> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Incisions made during surgery leave minor scars, which typically fade over time but may remain slightly visible.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Anaesthesia:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Gynaecomastia surgery is performed under general anaesthesia.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>How long does it last?<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Results of gynaecomastia surgery are typically long-lasting, but maintaining a healthy lifestyle is essential to prevent recurrence.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Changes to results:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Weight gain, hormonal changes, and ageing can affect the results of gynaecomastia surgery.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>The right candidate: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Be in good overall health, free from medical conditions that could impair healing or increase surgical risks.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Age:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Gynaecomastia surgery can be performed on individuals older than 18y., unless it is an extraordinary condition that requires urgent treatment.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Why is Gynaecomastia surgery cheaper in Lithuania?<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You might be surprised that gynaecomastia cost in Lithuania is 30-50% (or more) lower than in the UK or Western European countries.
