Abstract
Surgicаl trеаtmеnt of gynеcomаstiа is one of the most common but very demanding procedures in the field of the male plastic surgery. Achieving an effective and aesthetically acceptable outcome is of a paramount importance in this group of patients. The minimally invasive combined surgical approach consisting of suction-assisted liposuction (SAL) and direct surgical excision allows for effective removal of fat and glandular tissue and provides excellent cosmetic results with low risk of complications or recurrences in patients with small to moderate breast enlargement with skin excess. The aim of this brief clinical study is to put an emphasis on the tips for achieving best results in surgical treatment of mild to moderate gynecomastia in minimally invasive manner.
