Gynaecomastia Surgery in Dubai: Advanced Excision Methods
In the world of male aesthetics, not all chest enlargement can be treated with simple fat removal. For many, the primary concern is the presence of dense, rubbery glandular tissue that is resistant to traditional liposuction. Gynaecomastia surgery in Dubai has moved toward advanced excision methods that allow for the precise removal of this tissue through virtually invisible access points. In clinical settings, we observe that the most successful outcomes are achieved when the surgeon focuses on "sub-areolar" sculpting—ensuring the gland is removed without creating a hollow or collapsed appearance behind the nipple.
Why Are Advanced Excision Methods Necessary?
Advanced excision is required when the breast enlargement consists of firm, fibrous glandular tissue (True Gynaecomastia). Unlike soft fat, this tissue is structurally bound and must be manually detached. Based on post-procedure follow-ups, using a "Pull-Through" or "Hemicircular" excision technique allows the surgeon to clear the firm core while preserving the vital blood supply to the skin, resulting in a flatter, firmer, and more masculine chest profile.
-
Targeted Gland Removal: Specifically addresses the hard lump typically felt directly behind the areola.
-
Internal Re-contouring: Allows the surgeon to thin out the tissue layers from the inside for a smoother look.
-
Minimal Scarring: Techniques focus on placing incisions at the pigment border where they naturally disappear.
-
Permanent Correction: Glandular tissue does not regenerate, providing a lifelong solution.
How Does the Pull-Through Technique Work?
The "Pull-Through" method is one of the most advanced excision strategies used in gynaecomastia surgery in Dubai. It involves using a slightly larger cannula or a specialized tool to draw the glandular tissue out through a tiny incision initially used for liposuction. In clinical observation, this method is preferred for Grade 1 and Grade 2 gynaecomastia because it avoids any incisions on the nipple itself, further reducing the visible evidence of surgery.
-
Aspiration: The surrounding fat is first cleared using power-assisted tools.
-
Dissection: The surgeon uses a micro-scalpel or scissors to free the gland from the skin and muscle.
-
Extraction: The tissue is carefully "pulled through" the existing port or a 4mm crescent incision.
-
Cauterization: Precise energy is used to seal blood vessels, minimizing post-op bruising.
What are the Safety Guidelines for Glandular Excision?
Excision requires a higher level of surgical precision than liposuction alone. Safety is maintained by ensuring a "safety margin" of tissue is left to support the nipple. Based on clinical observation, removing 100% of the tissue can lead to "nipple necrosis" or a "saucer deformity." We prioritize the "vascular pedicle," ensuring the nerves and blood vessels remain intact so that nipple sensation and health are preserved long-term.
What Sensations Occur During Advanced Excision?
During an excision-based gynaecomastia surgery in Dubai, the patient is typically under deep sedation or general anesthesia. You will not feel any of the actual cutting or removal. As you wake up, the sensation is often described as a "tightness" across the center of the chest. Patients often report that the surgical site feels "numb" but "heavy," as if a weight is resting on the sternum.
-
Post-Op Day 1: A sensation of "fullness" as the body sends healing fluids to the excision site.
-
Week 2: A "stretching" feeling when reaching overhead as the internal sutures hold the tissue in place.
-
Month 1: The "woodiness" or hardness of the internal scar begins to soften into a natural feel.
What is the Realistic Downtime for Excision-Based Surgery?
Because excision involves a direct internal incision, the body requires a slightly more disciplined recovery period compared to liposuction alone. In clinical settings, we recommend taking 5 to 7 days off from professional duties. While you can walk and move immediately, activities that involve "pushing" or "pulling" motions (like opening heavy doors or vacuuming) should be avoided for the first 10 days to allow the internal excision pocket to seal properly.

"I had a very firm gland that my gym routine couldn't fix. The excision was quick, and the scar is so small I can't even find it anymore. My chest is finally as flat as I always wanted it to be." — Nasser
"The doctor explained exactly how the gland removal works. The recovery was very straightforward, and the 'puffy' look that used to haunt me in T-shirts is completely gone." — Vikram
Frequently Asked Questions
Will excision leave a 'hole' where the gland was?
No, we use surrounding tissue and skin-tightening techniques to ensure the area remains smooth and flat.
Is advanced excision more painful than liposuction?
While it involves a direct incision, the discomfort is very similar—mostly felt as a deep ache rather than sharp pain.
Can the gland grow back if I take certain supplements?
Once the gland is surgically removed, it cannot grow back, though hormonal health remains important for overall results.
How long until I can see my new chest shape?
The initial flatter shape is visible immediately, with final refining occurring over 3 to 4 months.
Are the stitches for the excision visible?
We use hair-thin sutures that are often dissolvable or removed after 7 days, leaving a nearly invisible mark.
