What is gynecomastia

There are several potential causes for the development of gynecomastia (the enlargement of glandular and/or breasts’ fat tissue in males). For example, hormone imbalance, pathological reasons (malfunction of testicular, thyroid, liver, or kidney, in the presence of tumors, etc.), or usage of certain medications. Statistically, 30 to 50% of males suffer from this disorder (to some extent). In most cases, the breast ultrasound is used for the examination of the patient and diagnosis. To be sure, the patient’s complaints are taken into consideration as well.

The surgery is not recommended for patients under 18, because gynecomastia might disappear naturally the following puberty.

Gynecomastia classification

Gynecomastia abroad might be classified into 3 degrees based on the amount of excess fat in the breasts’ area and the position of the gland. When the degree is clear, a relevant treatment can be chosen:

1^st degree gynecomastia – necessitates removal of glandular tissue
2^nd degree gynecomastia – liposuction from the breast area and removal of glandular tissue
3^rd degree gynecomastia – liposuction from the breast area with the removal of glandular tissue + removal of excess skin from the area

After the surgery

Patients are discharged from the clinic on the following day after gynecomastia surgery. The required stay in Lithuania is 5 days.

The scars are, normally, minimal and barely visible. A special band will have to be worn for 3-4 weeks. While the patient is able to return to all the daily activities in 4-6 weeks.

It usually takes 2 months before the patient can enjoy the final result of the surgery: nicely shaped chest and better bodylines, as well as increased self-confidence.

As with every surgical procedure, there are possible complications, such as bruising, inverted nipples, more significant scarring, and uneven breast contours (caused by insufficient liposuction).

prices given below are exact (without hidden costs). Many other clinics increase their initial prices.

Really happy with the service received by the Wellness Travel and their Medical Team.
Nothing to complain about, everything worked fine, they waited for me at the Airport and provided a full support during my stay in Kaunas.

Also, their doctors, nurses, booking consultant, office staff were really professional and helpful, actually to be honest, I've received better service than we get in the UK.
The clinic is spotless and clean, each room has own bathroom and TV, also there is a free WI-Fi to use. I found this very helpful because I was able to do some work after the operation on my laptop.

Wish our clinics in Britain can deliver similar service and achieve same level of professionalism like Wellness Travel delivers.

The liposuction and recovery went all fine, no problems whatsoever, no bruises or complications and I can only recommend this clinic because of their exceptional service and professionalism.

Also, and very important is that you get a 24/7 support during your stay in Kaunas. Karolis was very helpful and always available to assist if I needed something, from finding my way around the city, to pointing me to some places of interest (I was feeling well first day after the surgery so I was doing a lot of sightseeing and exploring around the city).

Did a ton of research before getting the surgery and Wellness Travels had the best reviews by far so I went along with it and gladly the reviews matched the service that I experienced. Amazing prices and very good service. All inclusive with airport pick up and drop off along with everything you need post surgery.

Would highly recommend to anyone getting surgery in Europe if you're looking for great service with unrivaled prices!
