The treatment

How Gynecomastia Consultation works

A gynecomastia consultation at The London Road Clinic begins with a thorough medical discussion to explore possible contributing factors, including weight, hormones, medication and family history. Examination then helps distinguish between glandular tissue, fatty tissue or a combination of both, which directly affects which pathway is most appropriate. From there, Dr Shahe and the team discuss realistic options clearly, whether that is lifestyle support, non-surgical body treatments or surgical referral.

After your appointment

Aftercare

There is no aftercare needed for the assessment itself. If surgery or another treatment is chosen, you will be given full treatment-specific recovery and follow-up advice.

Starting with an assessment

The clinic is at 65 London Road, Newark-on-Trent, NG24 1RZ, with free parking at the front.

This begins with one assessment appointment. What follows depends entirely on what that finds: treatment here where it is appropriate, or a referral onward where it is not. Either way the first visit is a conversation and an examination, nothing more.

Men travel to us from Balderton, Farndon, Collingham, Southwell, Bingham and Ollerton, and from Lincoln, Grantham and Sleaford.

Come with a sense of how long it has been there and whether it has changed, because that history shapes the assessment more than anything we can see on the day.

Further reading: men and aesthetics covers what men most often come to us about and how the consultation runs.

Everything starts at consultation. What that looks like from West Bridgford and from Mansfield.

Common questions

Frequently asked about Gynecomastia Consultation

What is gynecomastia assessment?
It is a doctor-led consultation for men concerned by a fuller or breast-like chest, designed to identify likely causes and discuss suitable next steps.
What causes are explored during the consultation?
The clinic says the consultation reviews possible causes such as weight, hormones, medication and family history.
Can the clinic tell whether the fullness is fat or glandular tissue?
Yes. Examination is used to help distinguish between true glandular tissue, fat or a combination of both.
Will everyone need surgery?
No. The clinic explains that options may range from lifestyle measures and non-surgical treatments through to referral for surgical correction, depending on the case.
What does surgery involve if it is the right route?
Where surgery is the most appropriate route, it may involve liposuction, direct glandular tissue removal, or a combination of both, typically performed under general anaesthetic.
What is the expected surgical recovery?
Recovery varies, but many people return to desk-based work within around 5 to 7 days. Compression is usually worn for 3 to 6 weeks and return to the gym is typically around 3 to 4 weeks after surgery.
When are final surgical results usually seen?
Initial change may be noticeable within weeks, with final contour often taking around 3 to 6 months as swelling settles.
Who may need further tests or a different pathway first?
People with unmanaged hormonal imbalance, unexplained breast masses or other findings needing investigation may need further medical work-up before treatment planning continues.
