Gynecomastia, characterized by enlarged male breasts, can have a significant impact on adolescents. Dr. Mordcai Blau recognizes the importance of a tailored recovery process, ensuring a seamless transition and optimal results.

Preparing for Recovery


As you embark on the journey towards gynecomastia recovery, it’s essential to prepare adequately. Gather necessary items, arrange for assistance around the house, and, if applicable, make arrangements for childcare. A supportive environment contributes to a smoother recovery process.

How Long Is Recovery?


The duration of gynecomastia recovery varies, but adherence to post-operative instructions is paramount. Dr. Blau will provide clear guidelines on activities to avoid and measures to promote healing. Patience and compliance with these instructions are key to achieving the best results.

Recovery Tips


During the recovery period, focus on rest and proper self-care. Ensure you have a comfortable space to recuperate, maintain a balanced diet, and stay hydrated. Following these general tips can aid in a faster and more comfortable recovery.

Is Recovery Painful?


Post-surgical discomfort is common but manageable. Dr. Blau will prescribe appropriate pain medications to alleviate any pain or discomfort. It’s crucial to follow the prescribed dosage and contact the office if you experience any unexpected or severe pain.

Bruising and Swelling


Expect some bruising and swelling following the procedure. Applying cold compresses and keeping the head elevated can help minimize these effects. Dr. Blau may recommend specific topical treatments or medications to further address bruising and swelling.

Taking Care of Incisions


Proper care for incisions is vital for minimizing scarring. Dr. Blau will provide detailed instructions on cleaning and dressing the incisions. Follow these guidelines diligently to promote optimal healing and achieve the best aesthetic results.

When Can I Go Back to School?


After surgery for breast swelling in adolescents, the duration of time needed off from school will be discussed during your consultation with Dr. Blau. Generally, patients may need a brief period away from school to ensure a comfortable and stress-free recovery.
