Dreaming of a Flat, Masculine Chest? Understand the Real Cost of Gynecomastia Surgery in Mumbai, India
Why is the price all over the place?
- You’ll find gynecomastia (male chest reduction) quoted anywhere from ₹45,000 to ₹2,00,000+ in Mumbai. Different clinics include different things— some list only the surgeon’s fee while others exclude anaesthesia, OT, compression vests, or follow-ups—making it hard to judge what’s fair.
Cheap now, costly later?
Prices swing with grade (I–III), technique (liposuction + gland excision, skin tightening for higher grades), anaesthesia (local vs GA), and OT time. Low teaser quotes can hide essentials or cut corners, risking uneven contours, crater deformity, or revision surgery—which ultimately costs more.
Solution — “Transparent, itemised, expert-led.”
At Allure Medspa, Mumbai, we give an itemised quote upfront—what’s included (surgeon, accredited OT, anaesthesia, compression vest, routine follow-ups) and what may be additional (labs, ultrasound/hormone tests if indicated, medications, histopathology, areola/skin-tightening add-ons). You’ll also get grade-wise bands and financing/EMI options so you can plan with confidence.

At Allure Medspa, Mumbai, Dr. Milan Doshi provides transparent, itemised estimates tailored to each patient’s condition and desired results.
Why Does Gynecomastia Surgery Cost Vary by City and Clinic in India?
Gynecomastia surgery costs differ across India due to city overheads, surgeon expertise, OT setup, anaesthesia, garment protocol, and inclusions.
- City infrastructure: Tier-1 metros → higher rent, salaries, consumables, hospital mark-ups
- Surgeon experience: Senior/high-volume surgeons charge more; Grade III cases need skin tightening
- Facility accreditation: NABH/JCI OT, ICU backup & sterile workflow raise safety & cost
- Anaesthesia plan: Local + sedation is cheaper than general anaesthesia
- Garments & aftercare: Compression vests, foam/boards, structured follow-ups add value & cost
- Tech & techniques: VASER, PAL, micro-cannulas, quilting sutures → added disposables & time
- Inclusions: Pre-op tests, garments, meds, seroma care, follow-ups vary by clinic
City-Wise Cost Snapshot
- Mumbai: ₹₹₹₹ – senior surgeons, corporate hospitals, energy-assisted liposuction common
- Delhi NCR: ₹₹₹ – wide range from boutique to corporate, strong anaesthesia teams
- Bengaluru: ₹₹₹ – tech-driven (VASER/PAL), day-care + hospital mix
- Chennai: ₹₹ – competitive ecosystem, NABH centres, value packages
- Hyderabad: ₹₹ – newer day-care setups, package deals near HITEC corridor
How to Compare Quotes Effectively
- Ask for an all-inclusive sheet (surgeon, OT, anaesthesia, garments, meds, follow-ups)
- Confirm grade & technique (lipo + gland excision, axillary rolls included?)
- Check time tiers (up to 2h, 2–3h, >3h) & surcharges for energy devices
At Allure Medspa, Mumbai, Dr. Milan Doshi ensures transparent, itemised estimates with safety-first protocols, advanced technology, and natural-looking results.
Which factors influence gynecomastia surgery price the most?
Price tracks case complexity and OR time: higher grade, dense gland, fat or skin laxity, GA & tech fees add cost; unilateral, simpler cases cost less.
- Grade (Simon I–III): Higher grades need more gland removal; Grade IIb–III may need skin tightening/lift → longer OT.
- Gland density & fat volume: Dense gland and higher fat require wider excision and more lipo passes → time + consumables.
- Skin laxity: Areolar tightening, lateral chest/axillary roll work, or lifts in IIb–III → significant cost add.
- Technique & tech: Lipo + direct gland excision as baseline; energy-assisted lipo (VASER/PAL) adds device/kit fees but shapes fibrous chests better.
- Anaesthesia plan: Local/LA+sedation is cheaper; GA and longer monitoring increase facility/anaesthesia lines.
- Unilateral vs bilateral: True unilateral cases take less time and are priced lower than bilateral.
- BMI & body habitus: Higher BMI slows lipo, increases volume, and may need extra garments or overnight stay.
- Areola/NAC work: Pucker correction, areolar reduction, or NAC reposition add finesse time and suturing.
- OT time tiers: Many clinics price by blocks (≤2h, 2–3h, >3h); overruns escalate totals.
Factor → Why it matters → Typical cost effect
- Grade I–IIa: Lipo + small gland excision; minimal skin work → ↑
- Grade IIb: Extra contouring; possible areolar tightening → ↑↑
- Grade III: Skin laxity/ptosis; lifts/skin excision → ↑↑↑
- High gland density: Wider dissection; meticulous haemostasis → ↑↑
- High fat volume: More lipo passes/ports; foam/board/extra garment → ↑↑
- Energy-assisted lipo (VASER/PAL): Device/consumables; may reduce OT in fibrous chests → ↑ (sometimes ↓ OT)
- Unilateral (true): Half the field; shorter time → ↓ vs bilateral
- BMI ↑: Slower lipo, higher anaesthetic risk, possible longer stay → ↑
- Areola work: Reduction/pucker fix/NAC reposition → ↑
- LA/LA+sedation → GA: Senior anaesthetist, drugs, recovery → ↑
- OT time over base: Time-tier overage → ↑ per block
*Arrows show relative impact; actual ₹ depends on city, facility tier, and what’s bundled (garments, meds, follow-ups).
How clinics usually build the quote
- Base package: Surgeon + OT block + anaesthesia for typical Grade I–II bilateral.
- Add-ons: Energy device fee, areola/NAC work, skin tightening/lift (IIb–III), axillary roll lipo, extra garments, OT overage.
- Case type: Unilateral is priced below bilateral; revision cases are higher due to scar tissue.
Expert note: At Allure Medspa, Mumbai, Dr. Milan Doshi provides transparent, itemised estimates aligned to grade, OR time, anaesthesia plan, and the planned contouring work.
What surgical techniques are used for gynecomastia—and how do they affect cost and scars?
Technique drives scars and price: lipo leaves tiny ports and costs less; gland removal or lifts add incisions, devices, and OR time—raising cost.
Technique | Best for (indication) | Incision(s) | Typical OT time* (bilateral) | Typical cost band** (India) | Scar profile |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Liposuction (standard) | Fat-dominant Grade I / mild IIa; soft tissue, minimal gland | 2–4 tiny 3–5 mm ports (lateral chest/axillary fold/IMF) | 60–90 min | ₹40k–₹80k | Micro-scars at ports; usually barely visible |
Energy-assisted lipo (VASER / PAL) | Fibrous/athletic chests; better edge definition; moderate fat | Same small ports as above | 60–120 min | ₹60k–₹1.2L | Tiny port scars; adds device/consumable cost |
Gland excision + lipo (peri-areolar) | Grade I–IIa/IIb; dense gland beneath nipple-areola | Half-moon or full peri-areolar at pigment edge + 1–2 lipo ports | 90–150 min | ₹70k–₹1.3L | Scar camouflaged at areolar border; ports tiny |
Skin tightening / lift (+ lipo + gland) | Grade IIb–III with skin excess/ptosis; post-weight-loss | Circum-areolar (donut/Benelli) ± vertical “lollipop” ± limited horizontal | 150–240 min | ₹1.1L–₹1.8L+ | Best contour; more visible scars (around areola ± vertical line) |
Areola reduction (add-on) | Large areola or puckering after gland removal | Circum-areolar ring with purse-string closure | +30–45 min | +₹15k–₹35k | Scar hides at areolar edge; mild flattening risk |
Axillary roll lipo (add-on) | Side-chest/axillary fullness with main chest correction | 1–2 extra lateral port sites | +20–40 min | +₹10k–₹30k | Tiny port scars in side fold |
*OT = operating time; varies with surgeon, BMI, and complexity. **Illustrative bilateral ranges; unilateral is often 10–25% lower. Premium metros (e.g., Mumbai), senior surgeons, and accredited hospitals tend toward the upper band.
How technique choice changes cost and scars
- More gland / tougher fat → more time: Dense gland needs careful peri-areolar excision even with lipo → longer OT, higher cost.
- Energy devices (VASER/PAL): Improve contour in fibrous chests but add device/consumable fees (may offset with faster lipo).
- Skin excess (Grade III): Lifts/skin-tightening add incisions and OT time; scars are planned to be as inconspicuous as possible.
- Scar expectations: Peri-areolar scars blend at colour change; port scars are tiny; lift patterns trade visibility for chest shape.
Quick pick (at a glance)
- Fat-dominant, tight skin: Standard or energy-assisted lipo.
- Palpable gland present: Peri-areolar gland excision + lipo (workhorse for Grades I–II).
- Loose skin/ptosis (IIb–III): Add skin tightening/lift to avoid a “deflated” look.
Note: At Allure Medspa, Mumbai, Dr. Milan Doshi selects the least-scar, best-shape plan for your grade and tissue type, with transparent, itemised pricing.
Is local anaesthesia enough for gynecomastia surgery—or do you need general anaesthesia?
Most Grade I–II gynecomastia is done under local anaesthesia with light sedation; choose general anaesthesia for long, complex or multi-area cases.
When LA (+ light sedation) works well
- Case type: Grades I–IIa (fat-dominant or small gland), tight skin
- Technique: Liposuction ± small peri-areolar gland excision
- Duration/volume: Limited lipo; OT ~60–120 minutes (bilateral)
- Patient factors: Calm/comfortable, BMI in safe range, no airway concerns
- Benefits: Lower cost, quicker recovery, fewer GA-related risks—with full monitoring
When GA (day-care) is preferable
- Higher grades: Grade IIb–III with skin laxity/ptosis, lifts or areola work
- Tissue/volume: Dense/fibrous gland, high lipo volume, axillary roll sculpting
- Duration/scope: OT ≥120–150+ minutes or multi-area 360° contouring
- Patient factors: High anxiety/low pain tolerance, difficult positioning, suspected OSA/airway issues
- Why GA: Motionless field, better airway control, predictable analgesia → safer, more precise surgery
Quick decision grid
Scenario | Typical plan | Why |
---|---|---|
Grade I–IIa, modest gland & lipo | LA + light sedation | Short case, limited discomfort, fast recovery |
Grade IIb, peri-areolar excision + moderate lipo | Either (surgeon/patient preference) | LA if comfortable; GA if fibrous/long |
Grade III with lift/skin tightening | GA | Long case, complex suturing, needs still field |
Axillary roll + chest 360 sculpt / energy-assisted lipo | GA | More ports/passes; precision contouring |
Unilateral Grade I (small) | LA | Short, targeted, best value |
Cost & recovery implications
- LA cases: Usually cheaper (avoid GA drugs/airway/long recovery fees); often faster discharge.
- GA cases: Higher cost (anaesthetist time, drugs, airway equipment, longer OT) but essential for complex work.
Note: Final anaesthesia is set after in-person exam and risk assessment by the surgeon and anaesthetist. At Allure Medspa, Mumbai, Dr. Milan Doshi tailors LA vs GA to your grade, tissue characteristics, comfort and safety goals.
What is included in a standard gynecomastia quote—and what is not?
Most quotes include surgeon, OT+anaesthesia block, day-care, 1 vest, early dressings and a few follow-ups; lifts, devices and OT overages cost extra.
Typically included (India, clinic policies vary)
- Surgeon’s fee: Lipo + gland excision (Grade I–II baseline) within a set OT/anaesthesia time block.
- Accredited OT use: Instruments, standard disposables; anaesthetist supervision and drugs for booked duration.
- Recovery: Day-care discharge or one ward night if stated.
- Compression vest(s): Usually 1 vest included (some include 2) with wear guidance (~4–6 weeks).
- Early dressing care: Initial dressing and first change at 48–72 hours (as advised).
- Follow-ups: Typically 2–3 visits in first 4–8 weeks (e.g., day 3–5, week 1–2, week 6–8).
- Histopathology (HPE): Many centres send gland tissue; sometimes included—confirm per-specimen policy.
- Starter meds: Short course analgesics ± antibiotics.
Often not included (or billed extra)
- Higher-grade work: Skin tightening/lift (Grade IIb–III), areola reduction, NAC reposition.
- Energy device fees: VASER/PAL kits; axillary-roll lipo add-ons.
- Time overage: OT/anaesthesia beyond base block; overnight upgrades/ICU.
- Extra compression: Second vest, foams/boards, size replacements.
- Extra dressings/drains: Visits beyond standard set; drains (if used) and seroma aspirations.
- Pre-op testing/clearance: Physician/cardiology consults; imaging if indicated.
- HPE billed per specimen: Common at some centres—verify rate.
- Revisions/complications: Touch-ups, silicone sheets/laser/steroid shots for scars.
- Financials: Taxes (GST) and any EMI/processing charges.
Smart checklist to compare quotes
- Ask for an itemised sheet: surgeon, OT block, anaesthesia, garments (count/brand), meds, follow-ups.
- Confirm HPE policy: included vs per-specimen fee.
- Verify time tiers and overage rates (≤2h, 2–3h, >3h).
- Clarify vest count, wear schedule, and how many dressing changes are included.
Note: At Allure Medspa, Mumbai, Dr. Milan Doshi provides transparent, itemised estimates with clear inclusions/exclusions tailored to grade and planned technique.
How is the gynecomastia surgery cost typically broken down?
A gynecomastia bill in India is split across surgeon fee, OT/facility, anaesthesia, garments, consumables, tests, medicines, and follow-ups.
- Surgeon fee: Biggest driver; scales with grade (I–III), gland density, axillary-roll sculpting, and revision complexity.
- OT / facility: Accredited theatre, instruments/sterilisation, recovery bay or ward stay.
- Anaesthesia: LA + light sedation is cheaper; GA is common for longer Grade IIb–III, multi-area or fibrous cases.
- Compression garments: Usually 1 vest included; many patients add a second for hygiene/fit; foams/boards if prescribed.
- Consumables: Cannulas/tubing, dressings, sutures; device kits if energy-assisted lipo (VASER/PAL) is used.
- Labs / imaging / hormones: Pre-op labs; ultrasound if indicated; targeted endocrine tests (e.g., TSH/Testosterone/Prolactin) when history suggests.
- Medications: Analgesics ± antibiotics for the early post-op period.
- Follow-ups: Dressing changes, suture removal (if non-dissolving), and routine review visits.
Note: At Allure Medspa, Mumbai, Dr. Milan Doshi provides an itemised estimate showing each component (surgeon, OT block, anaesthesia, garments, consumables, tests, meds, and follow-ups) so you know exactly what’s included.
Do grade, BMI, or areola/skin tightening add to the gynecomastia price?
Yes. Higher grade, higher BMI, and areola/skin tightening add OR time, anaesthesia, and consumables—so your gynecomastia quote increases.
What adds cost (and why)
- Grade III gynecomastia: Needs lift/skin tightening with lipo + gland → +60–150+ min OT; GA more likely; sometimes drains, extra dressings/second vest. Cost effect: +₹40k–₹1.0L over Grade I–II baseline (clinic & city dependent).
- High BMI: More lipo volume, slower dissection, higher anaesthetic risk → +30–90+ min; may shift LA → GA; larger garments/foams. Cost effect: +10–30% overall; if overnight stay, add ~₹15k–₹35k.
- Areola reduction (size/pucker): Circum-areolar ring with purse-string closure; often combined with gland excision → +30–45 min. Cost effect: +₹15k–₹35k.
- Skin tightening/lift (beyond minor areolar tightening): For true laxity/ptosis (IIb–III, weight-loss) → +60–120+ min, more sutures/consumables. Cost effect: +₹40k–₹1.0L.
- Adjacent-zone lipo (axillary roll, upper abdomen, lateral chest): Better transitions; extra ports/time; energy devices add disposables → +20–45 min/zone. Cost effect: +₹10k–₹30k per zone (+₹10k–₹25k device fee if VASER/PAL).
Quick matrix — add-on → OT add → cost add (India)
Add-on | OT time added* | Indicative cost impact* |
---|---|---|
Grade III (lift/skin tightening) | +60–150+ min | +₹40k–₹1.0L |
High BMI | +30–90+ min | +10–30% total (+₹15k–₹35k/night if admitted) |
Areola reduction | +30–45 min | +₹15k–₹35k |
Skin tightening (donut/vertical) | +60–120+ min | +₹40k–₹1.0L |
Axillary roll lipo | +20–45 min | +₹10k–₹30k |
Upper-abdomen lipo | +20–45 min | +₹10k–₹30k (+ device fee if VASER/PAL) |
*Adds are stackable and can push you into higher OT/anaesthesia tiers; GA becomes more likely as time/complexity rises.
Pro tip for fair comparisons
- Request an itemised sheet showing: baseline Grade I–II bilateral, each add-on’s OT minutes and ₹ impact, vest count (1–2), dressing schedule (48–72h change), follow-ups (2–3 in 4–8 weeks), and HPE policy for excised gland.
Note: At Allure Medspa, Mumbai, Dr. Milan Doshi prices by grade and planned add-ons with transparent OT tiers and anaesthesia plans for safety and predictable outcomes.
How much does revision gynecomastia surgery cost—and why is it higher?
Revision gynecomastia in India usually costs ₹80,000–₹2,00,000+ (bilateral)—about 20–60% higher than comparable primary Grade I–II cases.
Why revisions cost more
- Scar tissue & altered planes: Slower, riskier dissection → longer OT; GA often preferred.
- Contour correction: Craters/asymmetry may need release, precise lipo, or fat grafting → time + consumables.
- Residual dense gland/fibrous fat: Harder to clear; peri-areolar re-entry; energy devices (VASER/PAL) add kit fees.
- Skin/areola work: Areola reduction, purse-string tightening, limited lifts for laxity.
- More planning & reviews: Expectation setting, extra photos, and follow-ups; sometimes staged treatment.
Common revision add-ons (illustrative India deltas)
Issue / add-on | Typical OT add | Indicative cost add* |
---|---|---|
Dense residual gland (peri-areolar re-excision) | +30–60 min | +₹15k–₹40k |
Crater deformity correction (release + fat grafting) | +45–90 min | +₹25k–₹60k per session |
Asymmetry correction (targeted lipo/contour) | +30–60 min | +₹15k–₹40k |
Areola reduction / tightening | +30–45 min | +₹15k–₹35k |
Energy-assisted lipo (VASER/PAL) | Variable | +₹10k–₹25k (device/consumables) |
Skin tightening (selected Grade III revisions) | +60–120+ min | +₹40k–₹1.0L |
*Adds are stackable and may move you into higher OT/anaesthesia tiers.
What to expect in the quote
- Base package: Surgeon + accredited OT + anaesthesia (GA common for revisions).
- Garments: Usually 1 compression vest included; many patients add a second.
- Follow-ups: 2–3 visits in 4–8 weeks; silicone scar therapy often advised.
- If fat grafting planned: Frequently priced per session; may be staged.
Note: At Allure Medspa, Mumbai, Dr. Milan Doshi provides transparent, itemised revision quotes, outlining OT tiers, anaesthesia, add-on fees, and realistic outcomes.
Is gynecomastia surgery covered by insurance in India?
No, gynecomastia surgery is usually not covered—insurers classify it as cosmetic. Claims are considered only if documented as medically necessary.
When coverage may be considered
- Painful gland or functional symptoms: E.g., tenderness, movement restriction.
- Endocrine pathology: Hormonal imbalance documented with tests.
- Suspicion of malignancy: Gland biopsy or imaging suggests cancer risk.
- Certified medical necessity: Surgeon provides justification that surgery removes an immediate health risk.
What insurers require
- Pre-authorisation with diagnosis and clinical notes.
- Evidence of symptoms, imaging, or endocrine work-up.
- Operative details showing non-cosmetic intent.
- Compliance with policy wording—most cite EXCL08 (cosmetic exclusion).
Bottom line
- Plan for self-pay unless your surgeon documents medical necessity and insurer accepts it.
- Approval depends on policy terms, evidence, and insurer discretion.
Note: At Allure Medspa, Mumbai, Dr. Milan Doshi provides detailed medical documentation to support patients in case insurance pre-authorisation is attempted—but most cases remain self-funded.
Do you need tests before gynecomastia surgery—and do they change the cost?
Yes—most patients need basic pre-op labs/ECG; ultrasound and hormone tests are added only when indicated. HPE of excised gland is recommended.
What tests you’ll need (and when)
- Routine pre-op labs & ECG (nearly everyone)
Why: Safety screen before anaesthesia.
Typical set: CBC, CMP/LFTs, creatinine, fasting glucose, PT/INR, HIV/HBsAg (per policy), ECG (esp. >35–40y/comorbid).
India cost impact: ₹1,500–₹3,500 (labs) + ₹500–₹1,500 (ECG). - Ultrasound (male chest/breast) — when exam is unclear/asymmetric
Use if: Marked asymmetry, unilateral firm/nodular area, older age, rapid change, or to map fat vs gland in equivocal cases.
India cost impact: ₹1,500–₹3,500. - Hormonal/endocrine panel — only when indicated
Consider if: Teen persistence/severe grades, rapid progression, testicular symptoms, infertility/low libido, galactorrhoea, recurrence, atypical age, or drug history (AAS, anti-androgens, spironolactone, finasteride).
Typical tests: TSH, Total Testosterone, LH/FSH, Prolactin (± Estradiol, hCG if red flags).
India cost impact: ₹2,000–₹6,000. - Histopathology (HPE) of excised gland — recommended
Why: Confirms benign gynecomastia; rules out rare pathology (esp. unilateral, hard/nodular, older patients, rapid growth, nipple discharge). Many centres send all tissue.
India cost impact: ₹1,000–₹4,000 per specimen.
How this changes your total quote (rule-of-thumb)
- Baseline labs + ECG: Routine, modest add-on (a few thousand rupees).
- Ultrasound/hormones: Conditional; ordered when results influence management or anaesthesia planning.
- HPE: Small line item that buys diagnostic certainty—keep it in your estimate.
Quick checklist to send your clinic
- Which tests are included by default in my package?
- When do you order USG and hormone panels?
- Is HPE routine? If not, what is the per-specimen fee?
- Please share the ₹ line items for each so I can see the true all-in cost.
Note: At Allure Medspa, Mumbai, Dr. Milan Doshi tailors investigations to clinical need and provides an itemised, transparent estimate.
Can you get a gynecomastia cost estimate online from home?
Yes—most clinics provide a remote preliminary estimate after a short virtual consult; a final itemised quote follows in-clinic exam and tests.
What to send (photos + details)
- Photos (good light, no filters): Front (arms down), front (arms raised), both obliques, both sides; optional relaxed forward-lean front for higher grades.
- Measurements: Height, weight (BMI), chest at nipple line and under-bust (for vest sizing).
- Symptoms/history: Onset, progression, pain/tenderness, meds (AAS/finasteride/spironolactone), endocrine issues, weight-loss history.
- Goals & preferences: Scar minimal vs maximum flattening/definition; comfort with LA + sedation vs GA.
- Potential add-ons: Axillary roll/upper-abdomen contouring; areola size concerns.
What a clinic can estimate from home inputs
- Likely grade & technique: Lipo only vs lipo + peri-areolar gland excision; whether skin tightening/lift may be needed.
- Anaesthesia & OT tier: LA + light sedation vs GA; indicative operating time block; expected vest count.
- Ballpark cost band: With add-ons flagged (energy device, axillary-roll lipo, areola work).
Accuracy limits (why the number can change)
- Tissue feel & skin quality: Gland density vs fat and true elasticity aren’t perfect on photos.
- Ptosis/asymmetry: Areola position, axillary rolls, and lift/areola reduction needs are clearer in person.
- Investigations: Select cases may need ultrasound or endocrine tests.
- OT variance: Longer than base block can shift the time/cost tier.
Vest sizing from home (rough plan)
- Share chest & under-bust measures + usual T-shirt size; clinic maps to brand charts.
- Expect continuous wear ~4–6 weeks; many patients buy two vests for hygiene/fit as swelling changes.
Your final quote comes after
- Physical exam (pinch test, gland feel, laxity/ptosis grading).
- Review of labs ± ultrasound if indicated.
- Confirmed plan: grade, technique, adjacent-zone lipo, areola/skin work, anaesthesia, vest count, dressing schedule, and follow-ups—all itemised.
Note: At Allure Medspa, Mumbai, Dr. Milan Doshi offers secure virtual assessments with transparent, itemised estimates, then finalises pricing after an in-clinic examination.

Why should you choose safety and contour quality over the cheapest gynecomastia surgery?
Choose safety and contour quality over bargain quotes—accredited OT, expert anaesthesia and 360° contouring cut deformities, revisions, and risks.
What can go wrong with “cut-only” or under-lipo
- Crater deformity: Gland removed without feathered lipo → hollow under areola, step-offs at chest edge.
- Asymmetry & ridges: No 360° contouring (lateral chest/axillary roll ignored) → dips and bulges.
- “Recurrence”: Residual gland/fat from conservative or uneven removal, not true regrowth.
- Scar & NAC issues: Large/poorly placed areolar cuts, no layered closure → widened scars, puckering.
- Avoidable complications: Rushed haemostasis/infection control → haematoma, seroma, infections.
Revisions often cost 20–60% more than a primary Grade I–II—and scars are harder to optimise the second time.
What you’re paying for with safety + contour quality
- Accredited OT (NABH/JCI): Audited sterilisation, equipment checks, crash-cart readiness, correct antibiotic timing.
- Experienced anaesthesia team: Right LA+sedation vs GA choice, airway control, continuous monitoring.
- Technique matched to grade/tissue:
- Grade I–II: Lipo + precise peri-areolar gland excision with feathering.
- Fibrous chests: Energy-assisted lipo (VASER/PAL) to release/stabilise contours.
- Grade IIb–III: Planned skin tightening/lift to avoid post-op sag.
- 360° contour thinking: Treat axillary roll/upper chest to prevent “shelfing” or side bulges.
- Meticulous closure: Layered + subcuticular sutures; drains only when indicated; strict haemostasis.
- Structured aftercare: Correct compression vest(s) (often 1–2 for ~4–6 weeks), clear dressing plan, early follow-ups, seroma policy.
Quick checklist to compare clinics
- Facility: Which hospital/OT? Accreditation proof? ICU backup?
- Anaesthesia: Who is the anaesthetist? LA+sedation vs GA plan? Monitoring standards?
- Technique plan: Lipo plus gland excision (not cut-only); energy device if fibrous; adjacent-zone lipo when needed.
- Skin/areola strategy: Plan for Grade IIb–III tightening; approach to areola pucker/reduction.
- Closure & aftercare: Layered closure, vest count/brand, dressing schedule, follow-ups included.
- Transparency: Itemised quote (OT block/overage tiers), HPE policy for gland tissue, clear revision policy.
Note: At Allure Medspa, Mumbai, Dr. Milan Doshi prioritises accredited OT, senior anaesthesia care, full 360° contouring and meticulous closure—because paying a bit more upfront is consistently safer and delivers better long-term chest shape.
What results and recovery should you expect after gynecomastia surgery?
Most patients recover quickly: day-care discharge, back to desk work in a few days, gym in weeks, and final contour in months.
Typical recovery timeline (Allure Medspa, Mumbai)
- Same-day discharge: Surgery time ~60–90 minutes; you go home the same day.
- Compression vest: Wear 24/7 for ~4–6 weeks, then part-time as advised.
