Rapid Recovery Patient – Gynecomastia
6 Days Post-op
2 Months Post-op
This case perfectly demonstrates the satisfaction of treating
patients with gynecomastia. Not only does the patient himself find
gratification, but also the team here at the Parker Center. This patient
presented to us with deep concerns about the abnormal appearance of
his chest. His feelings prevented him from engaging in normal
activities where he might need to remove his shirt. A combination of
VASER ultrasonic liposuction and the removal of unwanted breast tissue
gave him an absolutely normal chest contour without any visible
scarring. He has told us that it is the best thing he has ever done.
He feels much more self confident and now happily participates in all
of the things he was reluctant to do prior to surgery, such as going
to the beach or pool, etc. Watching this man’s recovery from surgery
and observing his emotions soar as he saw his “new chest” evolve was
very rewarding for Dr. Parker and the rest of the Parker Center team.

Parker Center in Paramus, New Jersey
Most of our patients lead active lifestyles and desire as little downtime as possible following their procedures. Accordingly, Dr. Parker along with his team of trained professionals, have developed a protocol to return patients back to full activity as quickly as possible after their surgery. This includes:
- The use of limited incisions and medical tissue glue to speed wound healing
- Short-acting anesthetic agents and anti-emetic medications to hasten the recovery from anesthesia
- A tailored regimen of drugs to minimize postoperative pain
- A combination of oral medications given pre and postoperatively to minimize swelling and bruising
- Topically applied skin creams and postoperative medical manual lymphatic drainage massage to accelerate healing
- Professionally applied camouflage make-up to get patients back in circulation as quickly as possible
