Recovery after gynaecomastia surgery is a gradual process, and knowing what to expect can help you plan ahead ✔️
In this video, Dr Mistry explains the typical recovery journey following gynaecomastia surgery, including postoperative care, compression garments, returning to work and exercise, and allowing time for swelling to settle.
Recovery varies between patients and depends on the type and extent of surgery performed.
