| description | Background:. Because gynecomastia is one of the most considerable aesthetic procedures for men, we are researching in our article recent management methods for high grades of gynecomastia.
Methods:. This prospective study included 45 individuals with gynecomastia, divided into 3 groups: group A (15 individuals) managed by traditional liposuction, group B (15 individuals) managed by vibration amplification of sound energy at resonance (VASER)-assisted lipoplasty, and group C (15 individuals) managed by VASER and J-plasma. Authors used a skin fold caliper for measurement of subareolar disk size and a Cutometer for assessment of skin pliability and firmness. The study was conducted at the Department of Plastic Surgery, Menoufia University Hospital, Egypt, and Reflect Center for Plastic Surgery in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
Results:. Statistically significant differences were found among the groups in terms of reduction of subareolar disk size (assessed by skinfold caliper), skin redundancy (assessed by Cutometer), the need for a second stage of treatment, and patient satisfaction (by questionnaire).
Conclusions:. The combination of VASER and J-plasma is effective for managing grade 2 and 3 gynecomastia, resulting in significant reduction in subareolar disk size, minimal skin redundancy with enhanced skin firmness, reduced need for further procedures, and improved patient satisfaction compared with traditional methods. |
