Abstract
Gynaecomastia present for more than 2 years is unlikely to regress spontaneously so surgery remains the mainstay of treatment. Webster, in 1946, described an operation with a semicircular intra-areolar incision, which has become the standard operation for excision of gynaecomastia. Over the following years, numerous approaches were described.
Nowadays surgical treatment of gynaecomastia can make use of different techniques like suction-assisted lipoplasty or ultrasound-assisted liposuction, and the endoscopic approach, or some combination of these methods have made it possible to reduce the invasiveness of the operation, improving the final result and reducing scars.
LAL for gynecomastia is safe, and produces significant effects on fatty tissue with a reduction in volume of the breast, together with visible skin contraction. Provided an appropriate amount of energy is delivered by an experienced operator, the results are significant and consistent.
