What to expect on the day of Male Breast Reconstruction surgery

On the day of your Male Breast Reconstruction surgery at Advanced Plastic Surgery in Grand Rapids, MI, you can anticipate a supportive environment. The process is designed to ensure your comfort and optimal results under the skilled hands of Dr. Ewa Timek.

The surgical process involves meticulous reshaping of the chest area to create a more masculine and aesthetically pleasing contour. The duration and specifics of the surgery will depend on the individual case and the extent of reconstruction needed. Beyond incisions, we may use Liposuction and Fat Grafting to achieve the desired results. Dr. Timek works extremely hard to create scars that are inconspicuous to the eye.

Following the surgery, you will be closely monitored during the initial recovery period. It’s advisable to arrange for someone to drive you home, as you may still feel the effects of anesthesia. Dr. Timek and her dedicated team will provide you with detailed post-operative instructions to guide you through the early stages of recovery.

Male Breast Reconstruction Recovery

Immediately after the surgery, you may experience some swelling, bruising, and discomfort, but these are normal and expected. During the initial days following the procedure, it’s crucial to get plenty of rest and follow any prescribed pain medication to manage discomfort. 

Wearing a compression garment may be recommended to support the healing process and minimize swelling. Strenuous activities and heavy lifting should be avoided during the initial weeks of recovery to prevent complications and allow your body to heal properly.
