Man's breast

First of all, an appro­priate medical history must be taken to clarify any under­ly­ing diseases; then the defini­tive condition must be assessed; an ultra­sound exami­na­tion of the breast is essential before­hand to see whether real glandular tissue is present.

It is usually possible to perma­nently eliminate the problem by suctio­ning out the fatty tissue. However, the removal of the glandular part is important, which is why a small incision is often made at the edge of the areola in order to surgi­cally remove the glandular tissue behind the nipple. The procedure is performed under local anesthe­sia in twilight sleep. After injecting a "tumescent solution", the fatty tissue is sucked out through small puncture points using a cannula, leaving no permanent scars. (see also under "Liposuc­tion"). Any necessary incision at the edge of the nipple usually heals almost invisibly so that the procedure is not visible later. 

Real compli­ca­ti­ons are extremely rare with this procedure. However, swelling and slight bruising may occur, and there may also be sensory distur­ban­ces, both hypo- and hyper­sen­si­ti­vity in the nipple area, which usually disappear after a short time. 

After the operation, we apply an elastic bandage that slightly compres­ses the breast to prevent post-operative bleeding. After a short recovery period, you can resume your everyday life, and we will carry out short-term accom­pany­ing wound healing checks in our practice.

If glandular tissue is present, health insurance companies often cover the costs of this surgery (medical indica­tion - this must be applied for from the health insurance company before­hand). However, the additio­nal liposuc­tion that is usually required must be paid for by the patient, as this is more of an aesthetic problem. 

Otherwise, as with any cosmetic procedure, the surgery fee is made up of the anesthe­sia fee, the duration of the surgery and our fee note. We will discuss these costs with you in detail before­hand and a fixed fee will be set, regard­less of how long the procedure ultim­ately takes. This allows you to calculate precisely. 

The estimate is CHF 6800 to CHF 9000.

The cost of an initial on-site consul­ta­tion is CHF 250. This amount can be credited towards your treatment if it takes place within 6 months. If you do not show up for the bindingly agreed initial appoint­ment, a cancel­la­tion fee of CHF 150 will be charged. 

The following rule applies to agreed surgery appoint­ments: In the case of planned and scheduled opera­ti­ons, it is often not possible for Medicine&Beauty AG to find a repla­ce­ment patient in the event of a cancel­la­tion. Due to these planning diffi­cul­ties, it is only possible to cancel surgery appoint­ments free of charge if this is done in writing by the customer at least 7 days (calendar days) in advance by e-mail or WhatsApp. 

For cancel­la­ti­ons made less than 7 calendar days before the planned operation, the customer will be charged 50% of the previously agreed operation costs. Appoint­ments canceled by Medicine&Beauty AG for health, medical or technical reasons cannot be refunded or compen­sa­ted. An alter­na­tive date will be offered at no additio­nal cost.
