Male Breast Reduction Procedure

Breasts in males are called genycomastia, a Greek word meaning "breasts looking similar to women`s". 40-60% of men have breasts; many conditions can cause this phenomenon like medication and medical problems (alcohol use, marihuana and steroids), but in most of the cases the reason is not known. It can damage self-confidence and self esteem, therefore breast reduction can help.

Here is some General Information about Thailand:

Thailand Climate

Thailand is largely tropical, so it's hot and humid all year around with temperatures in the 28-35°C range, a degree of relief provided only in the mountains in the far north of Thailand. The careful observer will, however, note three seasons:

Cool: From November to the end of February, it doesn't rain much and temperatures are at their lowest, although you will barely notice the difference in the south and will only need to pack a sweater if hiking in the northern mountains, where temperatures can fall as low as 5°C. This is the most popular time to visit and, especially around Christmas and New Year's, finding flights and accommodation can be expensive and difficult.
Hot: From March to June, Thailand swelters in temperatures as high as 40°C. Pleasant enough when sitting on the beach with a drink in hand, but not the best time of year to go temple-tramping in Bangkok.
Rainy: From July to October, although it only really gets underway in September, tropical monsoons hit most of the country. This doesn't mean it rains non-stop, but when it does it pours and flooding is not uncommon.

There are local deviations to these general patterns. In particular, the south-east coast of Thailand (including Ko Samui) has the rains reversed, with the peak season being May-October and the rainy off season in November-February.

The ideal candidates for the operation are men with genicomastia for at least a year long who have developed chest muscles and elastic skin. The surgery is not recommended for overweight men who can`t loose weight using diet and exercise.

In case of extra breast tissue the surgeon will remove it through an invisible cut around the nipple or below the breast fold. Sometimes extra fat also removed using this method; the canula used for suction of the fat is inserted through the cut already made. When there is extra skin needs to be removed, the procedure may leave bigger scars.

Thailand male breast reduction - Tip of the day:
You`ll be able to return to your daily activities within a few days, although you should restrain from strenuous activities for about a month. It is recommended that you do not smoke, which interferes the healing processes. Also avoid sexual activities for 1-2 weeks. The scars and bruises usually disappear after a few weeks and the final results can be seen 6 months after the surgery.

If the extra tissue is fat, liposuction is performed. The cuts, 5-7 millimeters long, are made at the margins of the breast, from below and from the side. Sometimes small cut is made around the nipple. You may feel a vibration sensation, but no pain, if the procedure is done using local anesthetics. In extreme cases when there is large amounts of fat and tissue extracted, the extra skin needs to be removed, then a drainage tube usually left to prevent fluid collection.

Finally, incisions are closed and pressure bandages are placed.

Every operation has its risks. The risks include infection, bleeding, fluid collection, breast asymmetry (that needs to be corrected in additional surgery), scars, nipple distortion and permanent color changes of the skin.

Thailand male breast reduction - News update:
According to the first annual Benefits Statement published by the Government, the new IT systems in the NHS are on course to deliver better care and an estimated £1.14 billion in savings by 2014. The report summarises information from 1 in 5 Trusts who have implemented new IT from the National Programme. It found that, of the £208 million in savings to 31 March 2007: • £192 million had been saved through the delivery of the National Network for the NHS - a secure, high quality network that underpins many applications (with an additional £95 million per year of forecast recurrent savings using evidence from 2006/07). • £14 million had been saved from the use of digital imaging and scans (plus an additional £35 million per year of forecast recurrent savings now the system is fully implemented). • £617,000 savings on software licensing and hardware maintenance costs had been achieved (plus a forecast £1.6 million of annual savings using evidence from 2006/07). E-Health Insider reports that the £12bn NHS IT programme had hardly spent half the amount it had planned to by March 2007, because of lengthy delays in the delivery of the detailed local electronic patient records at the centre of the project. The programme had spent £2.4bn by March 2007 against an original forecast spend of £4.5bn, a shortfall of £2.1bn. Most of the shortfall is due to delays in the delivery of the detailed Care Records Systems to be provided by local service providers (LSPs). However, the contracts agreed by the Department of Health have ensured that suppliers are not paid unless they deliver contracted systems and these contracts run to 2014. E-Health insider also reports on the identified £208m efficiency savings due to systems that have already implemented. More...
