What are the risks of gynecomastia liposuction?
Bleeding and bruising: Liposuction can cause bleeding and bruising, which is usually mild and resolves on its own.
Infection: If the skin barrier is compromised during liposuction, there is a risk of infection.
Scarring: Liposuction can cause scarring, although this is usually minimal.
Seroma formation: A seroma is a collection of fluid that can develop after liposuction. This is usually temporary and resolves on its own.
Numbness: Liposuction can sometimes cause temporary numbness in the affected area. This usually resolves on its own.
Skin irregularities: Liposuction can sometimes cause skin irregularities, such as dimpling or waviness. This is usually temporary and resolves on its own.
Damage to underlying structures: Liposuction can sometimes cause damage to underlying structures, such as blood vessels or nerves. This is rare.
Unsatisfactory results: Liposuction may not always achieve the desired results. This can be due to factors such as the patient's skin elasticity, the amount of fat removed, and the surgeon's skill.
