Gynecomastia surgery is generally very safe, but every surgery carries risks and complications. For this procedure, this can include anesthesia risks, asymmetry, bleeding, fluid build-up, contour irregularities, change in nipple sensation, damage to deep structures, fat necrosis, infection, need for revision surgery, reactions to materials used, or unfavourable scarring.

After surgery, you will need to wear a compression garment to reduce swelling and support healing for at least 6 weeks. You will be given detailed instructions on how to care for your incisions, what medications you can take, and when you can resume work, exercise, and normal activity.

The results of this procedure are typically permanent. Your overall size will remain permanently smaller, lighter, and beautifully proportional to your frame. It is important to remember that major weight or hormonal fluctuations, or aging can naturally alter the shape and firmness of your chest wall.
