Gynecomastia, or the development of excess breast tissue in men, can be a source of discomfort and self-consciousness. For those seeking a more sculpted, masculine chest, male breast reduction surgery offers an effective and lasting solution. At PVPS, we provide male breast reduction in Ponte Vedra Beach, FL, a procedure designed to restore confidence and enhance your physical appearance.
What to Expect During Recovery
Recovery from male breast reduction surgery is generally manageable, with most patients experiencing some initial swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort, which gradually diminishes over the first few weeks. We recommend taking it easy and limiting physical exertion for the first few days, allowing your body to begin the healing process. Light activities can usually be resumed within a few days. However, more strenuous activities, especially those involving the upper body, should be avoided for up to two weeks to ensure optimal healing.
Our team will provide detailed postoperative care instructions, including tips on minimizing discomfort, managing swelling, and caring for incision sites. We’ll also schedule follow-up visits to monitor your progress and address any questions you may have throughout your recovery journey. As the weeks pass, the chest will gradually take on its final, contoured appearance, revealing a flatter, more masculine shape that enhances your confidence and comfort in your body.
