Types of Candidates
There’s no one-size-fits-all when it comes to gynecomastia surgery. Men of all ages and backgrounds can benefit.
Adult Men
Adult men are the most common candidates for gynecomastia surgery. Whether your condition developed recently or you’ve lived with it for years, surgery can provide lasting results.
Adolescents
Teens with persistent gynecomastia often opt for surgery once hormone levels stabilize. If the condition hasn’t resolved naturally, surgery can help boost self-esteem.
Seniors
Gynecomastia can develop later in life due to hormonal shifts. Senior men often turn to surgery to restore their chest and feel more youthful.
Bodybuilders & Athletes
Muscle-focused men may develop gynecomastia due to steroid use. Surgery can remove the unwanted breast tissue, enhancing your muscular physique.
Post Weight Loss
After significant weight loss, gynecomastia may still linger. Surgery helps eliminate the excess tissue for a more defined chest.
No matter your age or lifestyle, if gynecomastia affects you, there’s a solution.

Mild pain or discomfort is typical but manageable with prescribed pain medications. Most patients feel better after a few days. - Activity Restrictions
You’ll need to avoid strenuous activity for a few weeks. However, light walking is encouraged to promote circulation. - Follow-Up Appointments
Dr. Stile will schedule follow-up visits to monitor your healing and ensure everything is progressing smoothly.
Gynecomastia Surgery Steps in Las Vegas
Your path to a flatter chest starts with understanding the process. Here’s how the surgery works at Gynecomastia Las Vegas.
Consultation
In your initial consultation, Dr. Stile will evaluate your condition, discuss your goals, and explain the procedure in detail. You’ll have the chance to ask questions and explore your cash-pay options.
Pre-operative Assessment
Before surgery, we’ll conduct a thorough medical evaluation to ensure you’re in good health. This step helps us tailor the surgery to your specific needs.
Surgery
The procedure itself is straightforward and typically takes about 1-2 hours, depending on the complexity. Dr. Stile works with precision to remove the excess fat and breast tissue.
Anesthesia
General anesthesia ensures you’re comfortable throughout the surgery. Our anesthesiologist will monitor you closely to ensure a smooth process.
Incision Placement
Small, discreet incisions are made around the areola or in the natural creases of the chest. This minimizes visible scarring.
Tissue Removal
Dr. Stile carefully removes the excess glandular tissue and fat, leaving the chest flat and smooth. Liposuction may be used for precise contouring.
Chest Contouring
Once the tissue is removed, the chest is shaped to create a natural, masculine appearance. This is where Dr. Stile’s expertise really shines.
Closure
The incisions are closed using sutures, which are carefully placed to ensure minimal scarring. Dr. Stile uses advanced techniques for the best possible cosmetic results.
Post-Op
After surgery, you’ll go home the same day with detailed recovery instructions. You’ll wear a compression garment to help reduce swelling and support your new chest contour.
