Male breast and pectoral implants are popular for men who may find it harder to develop chest muscle than others.
It is a popular procedure for those men who do not have time to work out in the gym and would like to enhance the size of their chest. The underdevelopment of muscles in this area could also be the result of an injury and this procedure can also be used to even out any asymmetry in the chest or pectoral region. Breast enlargement is also carried out on men who are going through a sex transformation.
The male chest enlargement is performed under general anesthetic. During the procedure the implant is inserted through the armpit which is also known as an auxiliary incision. The surgeon makes a pocket under the layers of pectoral muscle to place the implant. This will hold the implant in place. It is a simple procedure with a small incision meaning that scarring is minimal. The procedure taxes approximately one hour to perform.
Depending on your type of work you will need between one and two weeks off work to recover with a gradual return to normal physical activities within 4 - 6 weeks. After the procedure the area will be slightly bruised and swollen which will take a few weeks to settle. You may also need to wear a support garment for two to four weeks to help minimize the discomfort and swelling. You will need a series of follow up appointments to ensure you are healing well.
