With breast lift for men, the glands increase in volume only due to adding a mass of adipose tissue. The chest is soft on palpation; there is no seal or pain when pressed. The level of growth can vary. In some cases, the volume of the nipples changes slightly (about 1 cm), but the breast size can vary by 10 cm or more. If the degree of sagging is significant, the nipple with the areola will descend relative to the physiological position. This is due to the stretching of the skin under the weight of the resulting volume.

Men begin to feel uncomfortable when the reshaped mammary glands become visible under tight or sheer clothing, for example, if it is necessary to expose the body in a bath or on the beach. They feel this discomfort in connection with not being able to associate themselves with the concept of masculinity.

Breast sagging spoils this image and causes a feeling of embarrassment, and awkwardness is the reason for the appearance of indecision. When referring to a plastic surgeon, the main reason is the psychological criterion. However, breast lift for men procedure in Turkey eliminates all these problems.

What are the Risks of Breast Lift for Men?

Like any surgery, breast lift for men in Turkey can cause complications. For example, infection, allergy, thrombosis, loss of breast tenderness, asymmetry, and the like. Depending on the education level of the doctor and the clinic, the chance of developing complications reduces. The operation performed by a low-skilled specialist carries a high risk of complications.

However, these risks are very low with our most experienced surgeon. In some cases, an individual reaction of the body may occur. Fortunately, such cases are sporadic. In most patients, a correction occurs without complications and consequences, except for postoperative bruising, swelling, and mild discomfort, except those that are natural for any operation. The risks associated with the process are postoperative bleeding, sensory disturbances, irregularity, and common complications that can occur with any surgical procedure.

Overall, surgical correction of a breast lift for men in Turkey rarely causes complications and characterizes by a high degree of efficacy and safety. However, in every operation, there are risks associated with the process itself and specific complications related to the invasive nature of the procedure, deformities of the chest, and even the nipples. These negative changes can usually be well-balanced and corrected during the correction.

Adverse reactions to anesthesia are rare these days, but they can occur. Therefore, the anesthesia itself can cause an incompatibility reaction. But as a rule, this is easily controllable. There is a high probability of bleeding due to injury to the tissues in a large area. Men usually worry much less about enlarged mammary glands. It recommends tightening the edges of the skin on the sides of the wounds with a special plaster for three more months after the operation so that the scars are difficult to notice. In general, you can examine the risks of a breast lift for men:

• Funnel-shaped depressions in the area of ​​the removed mammary glands: Such indentations may be especially noticeable in men undergoing a breast lift because the tissues are newly fixed when the nipple and areola move. The chest looks perfect in a standing position, with the arms relaxed. When moving and lifting the arms, depressions may appear in the area of ​​​​the operated mammary glands.
• Infection of the postoperative wound: This is possible but extremely rare as the patient prescribes broad-spectrum antibiotics.
• Sensory disturbances: After breast lift for men, there are often sensory disturbances at the operative site, possibly with the reduced touch sensation at the nipple. Sensory disorders usually disappear after 3-6 months but may be permanent in some people.
• Infection can occur in all surgeries, although rare (less than 1%), and can happen in the breast lift for men. Requires treatment with antibiotics.
• Postoperative tissue death is rare but can occur with this procedure in which the skin and the nipple move.

How to prepare for Breast Lift for Men surgery?

A comprehensive survey helps to identify the causes of the current condition to choose the best option for plastic surgery. It is also necessary to exclude contraindications such as age, severe chronic diseases, blood coagulation disorders, keloid scars, neoplasms and acute infections. If you have an allergic reaction to any medication, tell your doctor what drugs you are constantly using and what kind of pain you have had in the last few weeks.

You will give an additional examination to assess your health and ensure the operation didn’t cause harm. It usually includes laboratory tests (such as detailed general blood and urine tests) and instrumental studies (such as electrocardiography). If necessary, the surgeon can expand this list. It is convenient for the plastic surgery department to be part of a large clinic.

If the examination is successful, we will determine the breast lift for men day. Our surgeon will tell you how the operation will take place, what it consists of and how to prepare it.

What is the procedure for Breast Lift for Men?

Breast lift for men in Turkey can take approximately 1-2 hours. The operation performs under complete anesthesia depending on its size. We have more than many years of experience in breast lift for men treatment in Turkey, and we have specialized in a technique where there are small scars on the nipple. It gives a beautiful result without the large visible scars you usually see with other methods.

In case of excess skin, the skin removes, as in women. You can generally manage excess skin, spots around the nipple, and the scars in the fold under the breast.

Techniques and process

Our surgeons may prefer different techniques for breast lift for men procedure in Turkey:

• Nipple lift for low nipples

One of the leading cosmetic problems men face with their breasts is very low nipples, clinically known as ptosis. This phenomenon is usually seen in patients with enlarged breasts or can develop over time as the skin ages and the nipples appear to be drooping or pointing down. Breast lift for men, which raises the nipples to a more aesthetic position, can also change the position of very wide or very narrow nipples.

Any surgical procedure that involves moving the nipple will result in a scar around the areola. Protecting the nerves and blood vessels that feed the nipples during surgery is essential to maintain nipple sensitivity. Breast lift for men can be done on both breasts, gives immediate results, and can improve symmetry in patients with different levels of nipples.

• Correction of inverted nipples

Inverted nipples occur when the nipples are positioned below the skin surface and don’t have a normal protrusion. This condition can occur in early childhood, during breast development, or later in adulthood.

There are several conditions, from mild to more severe nipple inversion. In mild cases, the nipples invert. A breast lift for men involves a procedure to release the underlying tissues. Results are immediate, and patient satisfaction is high.

• Improvement of irregularity or asymmetry of the areola

Some degree of breast asymmetries, such as a different shape or size, is average. In cases of mild breast asymmetry, only the pigmented areolas are involved. Often there is a slight difference in the diameter or shape of the areola, for example, oval or teardrop shape, which isn’t round. Surgical correction of the areola involves the removal of a portion of the skin adjacent to or within the pigmented areola and a better cosmetic result.

With the breast lift for men procedure, men benefit from having their nipples brought to a more aesthetic level as part of the surgical procedure. The incision used to lift the nipples in these operations can also change the shape and circumference of the nipple.

In men with lumpy breasts, a condition in which the breast tissue narrows, the areolas appear significantly enlarged and somewhat distorted relative to the amount of breast tissue and skin. In these patients, surgical intervention to achieve the best cosmetic result, depending on the deformity’s specificity and degree of symmetry, includes areola reduction with a breast lift for men.

Our surgeon tries to ensure that every patient is satisfied with their appearance. Therefore, the specialist chooses the type of operation individually.

Final

Our surgeon ends the procedure by suturing the incisions at the end of the breast lift for men. Breast lift for men in Turkey is relatively easy and extremely simple.
