Is there a minimum age requirement for patients interested in GRS?
There is not a minimum age requirement for GRS, however many surgeons prefer to wait until the sufferer has completely finished puberty (18-20 years old). The reason for this being that for many teens who are still in their pubescent period, the Gynecomastia they’re experiencing can, and usually will, go away on its own. The surgeon will use his clinical judgment if the case is severe and causing severe social/psychological issues. This may encourage surgery at a younger age.
