Questions to Ask Before Choosing a Gynecomastia Surgeon
The right questions matter as much as the price quote.
If you have decided surgery is the right path, choosing the right surgeon matters more than almost any other decision in the process.
Credentials to Verify
Confirm board certification in plastic surgery specifically, and ask how many gynecomastia procedures (not just breast or body procedures generally) they perform per year.
Questions Worth Asking Directly
Ask to see before-and-after photos of patients with a similar body type and severity to yours. Ask what technique they recommend for your specific case and why. Ask what happens if you are unhappy with the results — is a revision included, and under what conditions.
Red Flags
Be cautious of pricing that seems unusually low, pressure to book quickly, or a surgeon unwilling to discuss risks and limitations candidly. A good consultation should leave you feeling informed, not rushed.
