For those who worry about Gynecomastia and having the operation. part 4

1. Minimal Incision Scar


A scar is made by making the 6-7mm of minimal incision in 6 o’clock direction. It is a procedure using the scissors for gynecomastia and a high frequency machine.


This approach was published by Director Yoon Sng-yeop of Silhouette Plastic Surgery in Korean Society of Plastic Reconstrctive Surgeon in 2007. .
Since then, many plastic surgeons have heard the announcement , learned the method, and followed it.

Using the special utensils and scissors as shown in the picture can reduce the areola scars.  

Since then, Silhouette Plastic Surgery has developed this method more to carry out the surgery making a 2-3mm small hale (stab incision)
Recently, a developed method guarantying no scar is used. 

2. 2mm small hole(stab incision, small hole) scar


The surgery is available only by making a small hole, not making the incision or scar.
A 2-3mm hole is made on the areola or in the armpit for liposuction or glandular removal.        
A scar is not left after the surgery.  
An electric knife (tissue shave) is used. .

In 2009, Silhouette Plastic Surgery used an electric knife (tissue shave) for gynecomastia surgery.
It was announced as a new surgical method in the Korean Society of Plast Reconstrctive Surgeon.
In the front side of the tissue shaver, there is a metal blade to cut the glandular tissue. It is cut as the shaver rotates.    
The rear side of the electric knife is connected to the machine to absorbing the tissue, inhaling the cut glandular tissue.  

In the procedure, fat is melted using an ultrasonic wave to be inhaled. The grandular line is cut step by step and removed gradually.

Silhouette Plastic Surgery is the only hospital that can carry out the surgery with a 2mm-small hole. It is explained by Silhouette Plastic Surgery’s career with the surgical cases of 6,000 or more .
Accumulated experiences and know-how make it possible to damage the surrounding tissue and to minimize scars.

However, the only surgical method one way does not solve all gynecomastias. Do not stick to  the method only.   
Gynecomastia surgery has developed continuously.
The ultimate goals of gynecomastia surgery are  
1.     Not to leave surgical traces,
2.     Not to damage the surrounding tissue
3.     To effectively remove fat and the grandular line
4.     To make a male chest into a normal, flat shape.
5.     And to quickly restore to the life without side effects.


Surgical Methods by Generation by Silhouette Plastic Surgery and Comparison of Scars




(Left) 1st generation gynecomastia surgery; prior to 2008(scar length 2 - 3cm)
(Middle ) 2nd generation gynecomastia surgery; prior to 2010 (scar length 6 – 7 mm)
(Right) 3rd generation gynecomastia surgery; after 2010 (scar length 2 – 3 mm, invisible after the surgery)

Silhouette Plastic Surgery has increasingly developed the surgical procedure developed on its own. 
It can be distinguished into the above 3 generations.
Ultimately, it is evolving in the direction of the invisible scars while liposuction and grandular removal are effectively carried put.
