Gynecomastia Revision Surgery Background
Gynecomastia revision surgery is performed when the results of a previous gynecomastia surgery are unsatisfactory. This could be due to residual breast tissue, asymmetry between the sides of the chest, divots and contour issues or visible scarring. Sometimes, the original surgery may not have removed enough tissue, or scar tissue may have developed, altering the chest’s appearance over time. Other times, an over correction can create other unwanted issues like divots.
Revision surgery focuses on correcting these issues by carefully removing any remaining breast tissue and addressing scarring or unevenness. This procedure is ideal for men who want to fine-tune the results of their initial surgery and achieve a smoother, more masculine chest.
Even if your first surgery didn’t give you the results you hoped for, gynecomastia revision surgery can help you finally feel confident with your chest.
Understanding the Need for Revision
There are several reasons why someone may need gynecomastia revision surgery. In some cases, the initial surgery might not have removed enough glandular tissue, resulting in a chest that still appears rounded or swollen. Other times, uneven fat removal or scar tissue can cause asymmetry between the two sides of the chest.
Patients may also develop scarring that is more noticeable than expected, or the chest may not have healed properly. Other times, an over correction can create other unwanted issues like divots or contour irregularities. Additionally, if the patient continues to use anabolic steroids or medications that affect hormone levels, gynecomastia can recur, requiring further treatment.
Revision surgery offers the chance to correct these issues and restore a more natural, aesthetically pleasing chest shape.

Post-Surgery Recovery for Gynecomastia Revision
After your revision surgery, you’ll need to wear a compression garment to support the healing process and maintain your chest’s new shape. This helps reduce swelling and keeps the chest properly contoured during recovery.
You may experience mild discomfort in the days following surgery, but this can be managed with pain medication prescribed by Dr. Stile. Most patients can return to light activities, such as walking, within a few days, but it’s essential to avoid strenuous exercise or heavy lifting for about 4-6 weeks to ensure proper healing.
Dr. Stile will provide you with a detailed recovery plan, including when you can return to your normal workout routine. With proper care, the results of your revision surgery will become more apparent as swelling decreases, giving you the chest contour you’ve been working toward.

Gynecomastia Symptoms After Incomplete Surgery
If gynecomastia surgery doesn’t fully resolve the issue, you might still notice puffiness or swelling in the chest area. This residual breast tissue can create the same challenges as before, interfering with your desired chest contour and making you feel self-conscious.
Scarring can also be an issue if the first surgery didn’t heal as expected. Visible or uneven scars may cause dissatisfaction with the results, especially if they’re in noticeable areas of the chest. Asymmetry between the sides of the chest may also persist, leading to frustration and the desire for revision surgery.
If you’re still dealing with discomfort, tenderness, or an uneven chest after your initial surgery, revision surgery can address these problems, helping you achieve a more balanced, masculine appearance.
The Surgical Procedure for Gynecomastia Revision
Gynecomastia revision surgery is more complex than the initial procedure because it requires careful correction of the previous surgery’s results. Dr. Stile begins by evaluating the original surgery and understanding the specific issues that need to be addressed. This may involve removing additional glandular tissue, fat, or scar tissue to achieve a smoother chest.
Incisions are typically made in the same areas as the first surgery, around the areola or within natural chest creases, to minimize further scarring. If necessary, Dr. Stile may use liposuction to contour the chest and ensure a natural, even appearance.
Additional fat may be removed or fat may be transferred back depending on whether or not too little or too much was removed.
The surgery typically lasts 1-2 hours, depending on the extent of the revision needed. Most patients can go home the same day, with minimal downtime and visible improvement soon after.
