Male Breast Reduction in Krakow Poland
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.
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.
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.
After the surgery you may feel uncomfortable, regardless of the technique used. It can be treated with painkillers. Swelling and hemorrhage may appear in the area, to reduce the swelling you'll be instructed to wear a tight bandage around the chest for several weeks day and night. The breast will reach their final size in 3 month or so. You'll be able to go back to work after a week or two. It is advised to restrain from sexual activity or physical efforts for at least 2 weeks, and any activity that may harm the chest for a month. It's important to avoid sunlight to your chest for 6 month to prevent color changes in the breast.

Krakow By car
Don't bother driving in the city centre. There's often a lot of traffic, parking spaces are scarce and can be expensive, and Polish driving takes a lot of getting used to. There are also rules around local 'driving zones' that confuse even long time residents. The taxis are cheap, and it makes more sense to use them.
Taxis are always plentiful, and a journey in the middle of the night from one end of the city to the other should cost no more than 50PLN. During the day most fares will be around 10PLN. All taxis should have a 'Taxi' sign on the roof, and a sticker on the rear passenger window with prices. There is an initial charge of 5PLN, plus 2PLN per kilometre.
There are instances where drivers will overcharge tourists, especially those who don't speak Polish. Check on a map in advance how much it should be, and if it goes much above that, debate the price.

Plastic Surgery News...
- The National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) is proud to announce several new updates to the NCCN Clinical Practice Guidelines in OncologyTM Breast Cancer. These changes highlight leading developments in the treatment of breast cancer and represent the recognized standard for clinical care in oncology in both the community and the academic practice settings.
- A ‘blog’ produced by the National Prescribing Centre (NPC) and posted on its website (NPCi) discusses QRISK – a new cardiovascular disease risk scoring system that was developed specifically for use in the UK. A validation study for this system was published recently in the journal ‘Heart’; the study abstract and the calculator itself can be accessed via the links above.
The blog discusses the calculator and the validation study, and discusses its place in comparison with the Framingham method in predicting cardiovascular risk in the general population. The author of the blog concludes (taken directly from the website):
“Health professionals should be aware of the ongoing debate, and also that Framingham-based tools may over-predict CV risk in some sections of the UK population, but not others, such as those in high risk groups (e.g. socio-economically deprived, people of South Asian descent, those with a family history of CV events, etc). Even with these caveats, as the draft NICE full guideline on lipid modification says - estimates of CVD risk derived from equations are not an exact science but are better than clinical judgment alone for the estimation of CVD risk. Of course, health professionals need to take into account patient circumstances and wishes. It would be foolish to have an iron rule that (whatever tool is used) someone with a 19.9% predicted risk can never receive prophylaxis, but someone with a 20.1% risk must always receive prophylaxis. The most important thing is to correctly use a validated tool – be it Framingham, ASSIGN or QRISK as a basis for discussion with patients and not to treat on the basis of individual risk factors.”
