Gynecomastia
Gynecomastia is a medical term that comes from
the Greek words for "women-like breasts." Though this oddly named condition
is rarely talked about, it's actually quite common. Gynecomastia affects an
estimated 40 to 60 percent of men. It may affect only one breast or both.
Though certain drugs and medical problems have been linked with male breast
overdevelopment, there is no known cause in the vast majority of cases.
For men who feel self-conscious about their appearance, breast-reduction
surgery can help. The procedure removes fat and or glandular tissue from the
breasts, and in extreme cases removes excess skin, resulting in a chest that
is flatter, firmer, and better contoured.
If you're considering surgery to correct gynecomastia, this brochure will
give you a basic understanding of the procedure--when it can help, how it's
performed, and what results you can expect. It can't answer all of your
questions, since a lot depends on your individual circumstances. Please be
sure to ask your doctor if there is anything about the procedure you don't
understand.
Surgery to correct gynecomastia can be performed on healthy, emotionally
stable men of any age.
The best candidates for surgery have firm, elastic
skin that will reshape to the body's new contours. |

Surgery may be discouraged for obese men, or for overweight men who have not
first attempted to correct the problem with exercise or weight loss. Also,
individuals who drink alcohol beverages in excess or smoke marijuana are
usually not considered good candidates for surgery. These drugs, along with
anabolic steroids, may cause gynecomastia. Therefore, patients are first
directed to stop the use of these drugs to see if the breast fullness will
diminish before surgery is considered an option.

Decision Time
So you are sure you want to undergo
Gynecomastia and you want to do this in Thailand. There are many hospitals
and clinics in Bangkok and other cities in Thailand who offer this
procedure. Some very expensive, some less expensive and some cheap
(avoid these at all costs) Now search for these medical facilities. Most
advertise on the internet. If you have problems finding them send me an
email. Bangkok Companies is not a medical tourism company. We cannot arrange
your hospital stay or arrange your treatment. What we can offer however are
two very special services. Firstly we can help you to find a good doctor
to do your procedure and secondly we can be your Bangkok Buddy to ease your
path in Bangkok and to be 'here for you' should there be problems or to help
you with arrangements if you cannot, or are in no fit position to do this.
Find a Doctor
We can offer a special service for
prospective patients. Being on the ground here in Bangkok and not being tied
down to commission fees or other incentives offered by these medical institutions we
can offer impartial advice and help you find the 'right' doctor, plastic
surgeon, hospital or clinic.
Bangkok Buddy
We have already offered this service to
executives who come to Bangkok on business. Now we have a similar system
where we can meet you and be 'here for you'. Whether you take up the services of a medical
tourism company or go direct to the hospital or clinic we can be here
for you. Hopefully everything turns out alright (usually the case) or
maybe there are complications and you need a helping hand to make further
arrangements such as contacting relatives or arranging further accommodation
for them or yourself if you need an extended stay - we can help
