i'm looking into gynecomastia surgery and was wondering who usually performs a mastectomy is it a general surgeon or a cosmetic surgeon? just trying to figure out who i should consult for this

Gynecomastia surgery, which addresses male breast enlargement, is typically performed by a cosmetic surgeon (plastic surgeon). General surgeons may also perform this surgery, but plastic surgeons are often preferred due to their expertise in cosmetic and reconstructive procedures

Doc, I've been wondering if it's possible to change the shape of my nose without surgery. Mine is kinda round and bulbous, and it makes me self-conscious when I interact with people. Are there non-surgical ways to reshape it or make it look different?

septoplasty is advised,ent review.

I'm planning to get grade 1 gynecomastia surgery in Delhi but don't have anyone to accompany me on the day because of Covid. Do I really need someone with me for the procedure? Will the doctor refuse to operate if I come alone? I'm worried I might have to delay the surgery by a year if they don't allow me to go through with it solo.

surgery evaluation is advised.
