Gynecomastia, the enlargement of male breast tissue due to the growth of mammary glands combined with fat, is a condition that can impact both physical appearance and emotional well-being.
For many men, surgery is the most effective way to restore a flatter, more masculine chest.
If you’re considering gynecomastia surgery in Bangkok, you’re probably wondering: how much does it cost, and what does that include?
Let’s dive into all the details — from price breakdowns to what happens before and after the procedure.
The average price for gynecomastia surgery with local anesthesia in Bangkok is approximately $3,700 USD (~฿130,000 THB).
This price includes essential components such as general anesthesia, aftercare, and a comprehensive health checkup.
For many patients, this all-inclusive approach ensures transparency and a smooth surgical experience.

In certain cases, the surgeon may recommend tumescent local anesthesia instead of general anesthesia, especially for less invasive procedures or those involving only liposuction.
This approach provides effective pain control while significantly reducing the overall cost, making gynecomastia surgery more affordable without compromising safety or results.

What Happens After Surgery? Your Recovery Plan
Gynecomastia involves the enlargement of male breast tissue, often due to hormonal imbalance. The surgical treatment removes glandular tissue and fat to achieve a more contoured chest.
Medication
Strictly follow the prescribed medication plan provided by your doctor to support healing and minimize the risk of infection.
Compression Garment Guidelines
Wearing a compression garment is essential to reduce swelling and improve the surgical outcome:
- Wear it 24 hours/day for the first 3 days (72 hours)
- Then, wear it 12 hours/day for 1–3 months
- Do not remove the garment on the first day by yourself — it can cause dizziness or fainting
When removing the garment, do so slowly while sitting to allow blood circulation to stabilize.
Outpatient Referral and Wound Care
- Day 1: Come in for wound cleaning and home care instructions
- Every other day until Day 7: Continue cleaning wounds
- Day 7: Return for stitch removal
- After stitches are removed: Begin manual massage to prevent fluid buildup (seroma)
- After 2 weeks: Start clinic-based machine massage, once a week
Diet and Hydration
- Drink 1–2 liters of water per day
- Avoid alcohol and smoking for at least 7 days post-surgery
- Avoid fermented, raw, or semi-raw foods until stitches are removed
- Prioritize high-protein foods and reduce intake of sodium, starchy, and salty foods for at least 2 weeks
Exercise and Activity
- Avoid lifting your arms above your shoulders or carrying heavy items
- Light exercise: Can begin after 2 weeks
- Strenuous workouts: Resume after 1 month
Watch Out For
Call the clinic immediately if you experience:
- Persistent pain in surgical areas
- Increased swelling or bruising
- Fever or rapid heart rate
