What You Need to Know About Gynecomastia and Good Posture Austin Gynecomastia Center

Poor posture and gynecomastia go hand in hand. Most patients seen at my Austin Gynecomastia Center have poor posture. The reason for this is obvious—slouching of the shoulders and bending at the back camouflage or hide the prominence of your chest. Unfortunately, this leads to both mental and physical compromise. People who slouch don't look as good as they can if they sat up straight. Slouching gives off signals of insecurity and a lack of confidence. Patients who do this are experiencing the mental burden of gynecomastia.

This is particularly true when a patient has a large amount of tissue with a big chest, when they have a history of significant weight loss with skin laxity, and when their chest is saggy with downward directed nipple-areola complexes. Good posture promotes optimal healing after gynecomastia treatment. The ultimate goal is for a flat, smooth chest with ideal placement and shape of the nipple-areola complexes. Good posture allows for the best skin retraction after removal of all the gynecomastia tissue. I want the skin to move UP and not DOWN. Good posture moves the skin UP.
