Male Chest Augmentation

What should you know about a male chest augmentation? What happens during the first consultation?

A lot of man would like to have aesthetic chest muscles. The size of the chest can be augmented, but only to a limited degree though exercise. However, genetics, or the passage of time often, work against us. An unsatisfactory shape or size may even cause psychological problems, which lead to the loss of self-confidence, relationship problems and the deterioration of the sexual life. Male chest augmentation by implants offers an opportunity for enhancing the size of the chest.

On the basis of the examination performed during the first consultation, our plastic surgeon shows you the different pectoral implant types, and you choose the most appropriate one together. When choosing the right size and type of the pectoral implants, the surgeon takes into account your personal bodily conditions, the build of your chest, and your personal desires. At the consultation you have the chance to see the reference photos of the plastic surgeon.

Preparing for male chest enlargement

Before the male chest augmentation you must go for a complete medical check-up. The reason for this is to find out whether you have any health problems that could have an influence on the chest surgery. All preliminary examinations are made at our Plastic Surgery Institute, saving you the pains of queuing and waiting in other health centers. In the course of the examination laboratory tests and as occasion requires, other examinations (ECG, X-ray, breast ultrasound, mammography, etc.) are performed according to the suggestion of the surgeon.

In certain cases we advise our patients to change their lifestyle in the days preceding the male chest augmentation. To facilitate the proper recovery, it is important that you do not smoke, because nicotine slows down the process of regeneration and harmfully influences the healing of the wound. In the days before the male chest enlargement you should eat light food, drink lots of fluids and take some vitamins (vitamin C, selenium, zinc). Two weeks before the chest surgery you should avoid the use of aspirin, ginko biloba and other naturopathic products.

Male chest augmentation

In the course of the male chest augmentation we enlarge the chest size by the insertion of pectoral implants. Chest surgery is performed under general anesthesia. The chest enlargement takes about 1 hour. In our Plastic Surgery Institute we apply the most modern American, German or Brazilian made pectoral implants, for which the manufacturer undertakes a lifelong guarantee. As for their shape, they can be round or drop-shaped; the surface of them might be textured or polyurethane foam, which are the most long-lasting implants of our days.

The techniques of the male chest augmentation

The technique of the plastic surgery procedure means the choice and localization of the necessary incisions. The pectoral implant is inserted through a 4-5 centimeter long incision made by the plastic surgeon straight in the armpit. Due to this technique the scars stay almost completely hidden. After the incision the pectoral implants are inserted deeply in the formed place under the pectoral muscles. At the end of the surgery drain tubes are inserted to drain the excretion for 24 hours.

Recovery and risks of the male chest enlargement

In our Plastic Surgery Institute we aim to make the period after the male chest augmentation as convenient as possible for you. After the male chest enlargement you must spend one night in our Plastic Surgery Institute. The drain tubes are removed on the first day after the chest surgery and a waterproof bandage is placed on the wounds, so you can even have a shower at home. To achieve the perfect result and look we work with self-absorbing stitches, this way the scars heal a lot more aesthetically and we save you the possible inconveniences of stitch removal. After the male chest augmentation you must wear a special compression vest for 4 weeks. Our institute provides you with these items of clothing.

In the first 2 weeks of the recovery all demanding physical activities must be avoided. After 2 weeks you can gradually return to your previous lifestyle. In three weeks time you can start to do light exercises. Sunbathing, going to swimming pools and the use of solarium and sauna must be avoided for 2 months. After the male chest enlargement you have to attend control examinations on the 7th and 14th day, and the 6th and 12th week. The recovery time of the outer scars is 6 months, while the inner scars heal completely in 2 years. To facilitate the healing of the wound it is advisable to use scar creams.

Before the male chest augmentation we aim to filter out the possible risk factors with preliminary examinations but even so unpredictable complications may occur. Chest surgeries count as routine plastic surgery procedures and the occurrence of complications is extremely slight, but it cannot be excluded. Such complications can be the following: infection, oedema, serous oedema, or the formation of a keloid scar, temporary alteration regarding the sensitivity of the nipples, asymmetry between the chest muscles.
