Abstract | ||||
Background: Gynecomastia is defined as an abnormal growth of male breast tissue that is considered the most frequent male cosmetic problem, accounting for roughly 60% of the total male breast problems and 85% of male breast masses. Several traditional treatments, including liposuction, subcutaneous mastectomy, and a combination of both, have been documented. This approach inevitably results in a scar on the anterior chest wall; liposuction alone can result in minimal scarring but has a minimal effect on the tough glandular and fibroconnective tissues. Aim of the study: Evaluation of the aesthetic outcome of glandular liposculpture using V-dissector liposuction cannula for grades I and II gynecomastia combined with the sealing effect of autologous platelet gel. Methods: This was an uncontrolled clinical study, including 25 patients [50 breasts] ageing between 18 and 45 years with idiopathic benign gynecomastia who requested surgical intervention for their gynecomastia. liposuction and liposculpturing with V-dissector liposuction cannula without glandular tissue excision, followed by platelet gel spraying on the cavity. The procedure was completed, and the overall complication rate was recorded, mainly hematoma and seroma. conclusion: Glandular liposculpture using V-dissector liposuction cannula for grades I and II gynecomastia combined with sealing autologous platelet gel was effective and safe, and both patients and observers were adequately satisfied with an acceptable outcome rating. | ||||
