Excited to see the results of your male reduction mammaplasty? The key is patience. After your male reduction mammaplasty surgery, you will likely experience temporary swelling in the tissues of the chest as your body recovers from the surgery.

This temporary swelling may make it appear as though less tissue was removed than you were hoping for. However, if you remember to have patience, then you’ll be richly rewarded with the final results of the procedure once the swelling ameliorates.

Dr. Kathy Rumer, a board-certified plastic surgeon well-versed in male reduction mammaplasty, will offer recommendations on the best methods of keeping swelling down and making sure it reduces in a timely manner.
