How Gynecomastia Surgery Works at Our Office

Gynecomastia is enlarged glandular breast tissue in men, often with extra fat on top. Surgery removes both so the chest sits flat and firm, with the scars kept small and out of the way.

  • Fat Removal

    Liposuction through tiny openings clears the softer, fatty part of the chest.

  • Gland Excision

    Firm gland tissue comes out through a short incision at the edge of the areola.

  • Chest Contouring

    Dr. Fayad blends the edges so the chest reads as natural and masculine.

  • Compression Support

    A compression garment holds the new shape while swelling settles.

Signs You Are a Good Candidate

Dr. Fayad is board certified in internal medicine, so he looks at medications and hormone history before recommending surgery. Surgery makes the most sense once those causes are ruled out or treated.

  • Your chest stays full or puffy even at a stable, healthy weight
  • You feel a firm, rubbery disc of tissue under one or both nipples
  • You avoid fitted shirts, the gym or the pool because of your chest
  • You are in good general health and do not smoke, or will stop
  • Your enlargement has lasted well past puberty

Chest Contouring While You Stay Awake

Gynecomastia surgery is one of our awake procedures. The chest is numbed with local anesthesia, which helps keep downtime short and supports a smoother recovery. Many men also pair it with chest liposuction when fat makes up most of the fullness.

  • Localanesthesia, no general
  • 3 to 4 weeksbefore heavy lifting
  • 25+ yearsof medical experience

Consultation With Dr. Fayad

Before surgery

Dr. Fayad examines how much of your chest is gland and how much is fat, checks skin elasticity and reviews any medications or hormone concerns. You leave with a plan for your chest and a final quote.

Procedure Day

The day of

The chest is numbed, fat is removed with liposuction and any gland is excised at the areola edge. Incisions are closed, often with dissolvable sutures, and your compression garment goes on before you leave.

Early Recovery

First 1 to 4 weeks

Swelling and bruising are normal at first. Most men return to light activity within a few days to a week, wear the garment for the first several weeks and hold off on heavy lifting for about 3 to 4 weeks.

Follow-Up Visits and Final Shape

Weeks to months

Follow-up visits let Dr. Fayad check your healing. The chest looks flatter right away, then keeps refining as swelling fades over the coming months and the first year.

FAQ About Gynecomastia Surgery in Mesa, AZ

How much does gynecomastia surgery cost in Mesa, AZ?

At our Chandler office, gynecomastia surgery typically runs $2,500 to $6,000. Where you land depends on how much gland and fat is removed and how involved the contouring is. Dr. Fayad gives you a final quote after your one-on-one consultation, and financing is available.

Can gynecomastia surgery be done while I am awake?

Yes. Gynecomastia surgery is one of our awake procedures, performed under local anesthesia so the chest is numb while you stay awake. Dr. Fayad reviews the anesthesia plan with you at your consultation.

How long is recovery after gynecomastia surgery?

Most men return to light, non-strenuous activity within a few days to a week. Heavy lifting and hard workouts wait about 3 to 4 weeks. Swelling keeps easing for several months, so the final chest shape shows gradually.

Will I have visible scars?

The incisions are small and placed at the edge of the areola or in natural skin folds where they are hard to spot. Scars are permanent, but they usually fade a great deal over the first year.

Can gynecomastia come back after surgery?

Gland tissue and fat cells that are removed do not grow back. Significant weight gain, some medications or an untreated hormone imbalance can still enlarge the chest again, which is why Dr. Fayad looks at those causes before surgery.

Will diet and exercise get rid of gynecomastia?

Weight loss can shrink chest fat, but true gynecomastia is firm glandular tissue that does not respond to diet or workouts. A chest that stays full at a stable, healthy weight usually needs the gland removed surgically.
