About Silhouette Lipomastia(gynecomastia) Center

Silhouette Lipomastia(Gynecomastia) Center – performing more than 6,000 operations

Silhouette Lipomastia Center is a specialized plastic surgery center with the record of operating more than 6,000 surgical cases.

Operation is done through small 2-3mm incision hole and post-operative scars are not visible.

The glandular tissue excision is performed through areola incision.

The scar is not reduced less than 1cm just by using general surgical scissors and retractors.

During endoscopic operation, to remove a large mammary gland, areola incision becomes necessary again, requiring small and delicate instruments.

Based on rich experiences, Silhouette lipomastia center develops and uses special instruments on its own for effective operation.

No general anesthesia, Just sedation & local anesthesia for operation on the day

Silhouette lipomastia center is a clinic specialized in chest contouring. We have much know-how in dealing with chest pain.

An anesthesiology specialist stays in the center full time. For most of the time, patients receive sleeping anesthesia (sedation).

As it has been known, general anesthesia is safe and does not harm memories. However, it is true that many people have anxiety about general anesthesia and feel resistance.

As the clinic hardly performs general anesthesia, simple tests are enough to finish an operation on the day.

No stitch removal after surgery! Don’t worry about scar! Use of DermaBond(HistoAcryl) for human body!

Silhouette Lipomastia Center does not sew skin with stitches.

A bond is used instead of thread (suture materials)

Dermabond is the only skin closing glue certified by the Korea FDA.

 Dermabond application does not require stitch removal after operation and ensures clear incision closure for almost scarless recovery.
