Gynecomastia, the medical term for enlarged male breast tissue, affects far more men in Pune and Pimpri-Chinchwad than most people realise. Loose T-shirts, skipped beach trips, avoided gym sessions. Sound familiar?Â
If you’ve been silently dealing with this for months or years, you’re not alone. The good news: Pune has some genuinely outstanding board-certified plastic surgeons who handle this exact problem every week.
Choosing the right surgeon matters more than most men think. Technique, technology, and the surgeon’s specific experience with male chest contouring all determine whether you walk away with a naturally flat, masculine chest or results that look “done.”Â
This list covers five plastic surgeons in Pune and PCMC who consistently achieve high patient satisfaction ratings for gynecomastia surgery.

If you’re specifically looking for a surgeon for gynecomastia in Pune and PCMC , Dr. Salil Patil’s name comes up again and again and not by accident.
Dr. Salil Patil holds an MBBS from GS Medical College & KEM Hospital, Mumbai, and completed both his MS in General Surgery and MCh in Plastic Surgery from BJ Medical College, Ahmedabad, winning gold medals in both postgraduate residencies.Â
That’s not a common achievement. He currently consults at Dhanwantari’s Chrysalis (his dedicated aesthetic clinic in Ravet), Dhanwantari Hospital in Nigdi, Aditya Birla Memorial Hospital in Chinchwad, and Sterling Hospital in Nigdi.
What makes his practice stand out to men specifically seeking advanced gynecomastia treatment in PCMC is his technology stack. Chrysalis is reportedly Pune’s first centre to offer combined VASER liposuction, BODYTITE, VIBRASAT PRO, and a single-incision scarless technique all under one roof.Â
He uses VASER (Vibration Amplification of Sound Energy at Resonance) for precision fat liquefaction and VIBRASAT PRO for denser glandular tissue, sometimes combining both in a single session when the case demands it. The result? A flatter, firmer chest with incisions so small they’re essentially invisible at 3–4 mm.
Crucially, Dr. Patil approaches every case through the lens of male chest aesthetics not just tissue removal. His goal isn’t just to reduce the excess; it’s to create a well-defined, masculine chest contour that suits the patient’s frame. This philosophy shows in the feedback patients leave.
One patient who had previously consulted two large Pune hospitals wrote: “After meeting the doctors at other big hospitals, I found their information too complex… When I spoke with Dr. Salil Patil, all my fears were dispelled. He explained everything simply. I was assured I was in safe, experienced hands.” Another, two weeks post-op: “He knows his stuff. He always made me feel comfortable and relaxed. The post-op care was excellent; he was always available to solve my doubts.”
Patients who’ve undergone the procedure here consistently rate both the surgical outcome and the post-operative communication highly, giving a 9.5/10 specifically for gynecomastia results.
For men located in Ravet, Pimpri, Chinchwad, Akurdi, Nigdi, or Wakad, the clinic’s location in Ravet makes it far more accessible than city-centre options. International patients from the UK, Europe, and the USA also travel to Chrysalis specifically for his gynecomastia work, combining recovery with a stay near Lonavala or Mulshi.
If you’re dealing with Grade 1 through Grade 3 gynecomastia and want minimally invasive male breast reduction with no visible scars, Dr. Patil is the name most worth shortlisting first.
Ideal for: Men in PCMC, Ravet, Pimple Saudagar, Akurdi, Nigdi, and surrounding areas. Also suitable for medical tourists seeking affordable international-standard gynecomastia surgery in Pune.
Dr. Ashish Davalbhakta is probably the most credentialed name on this list from a purely academic standpoint. He completed his MS in General Surgery from BJ Medical College in 1993 and his MCh in Plastic Surgery from Topiwala National Medical College, Mumbai, in 1996, followed by fellowships at Addenbrooke’s Hospital, Cambridge, St. Andrews Centre for Plastic Surgery in Chelmsford, Royal Preston Hospital, and Mt. Vernon, UK. He then spent eight years working in NHS hospitals in the UK before returning to Pune to establish Advanced Aesthetics.
His international profile is significant. He’s a Past President of the Indian Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons (IAAPS), a Board Member of ISAPS, and a Scientific Faculty member at IMCAS Paris. Aesthetics Medispa, founded in 2009, is recognised as one of India’s first doctor-led medispas, integrating spa care with surgical precision under one roof.
For Grade 2 and Grade 3 gynecomastia, his keyhole technique uses liposuction to extract both fat and glandular tissue through a small sub-areolar incision with no visible scar. He reports a 95–99% correction rate with this method.Â
Ideal for: Men seeking a surgeon with heavy international exposure, or those combining gynecomastia surgery with other facial or body procedures at the same visit.
Dr. Pushkar Deshpande runs a quietly well-regarded practice in Kothrud, a name that keeps appearing on shortlists compiled by platforms like ThreeBestRated for top plastic surgeons in Pune. He holds MBBS from Pune University, MS in General Surgery from BJ Medical College, and MCh in Plastic Surgery from Bangalore Medical College and Research Institute. With over 24 years of total medical experience, he’s seen a wide range of gynecomastia presentations.
Perfection Plastic Surgery Clinic carries ISO 9001:2015 certification, a commitment to consistent quality that not every private clinic bothers maintaining. Reviews on Practo and Justdial (rated 4.7/5 from nearly 200 ratings) paint a picture of a surgeon who takes time to explain everything in plain language, makes patients feel at ease, and delivers clean results. His clinic also has an additional practice at The Aesthetic Hub in Baner, making him accessible from multiple parts of Pune.
He’s a member of IMA and SAPS (Shushrut Association of Plastic Surgeons) and has previously consulted at Shashwat Hospital, AIMS Hospital, and Sahyadri Hospitals.
Ideal for: Men in Kothrud, Deccan, Karve Nagar, or Sinhagad Road who want an experienced surgeon with a proven track record and strong patient communication skills.
Dr. Sushrut Tated is a board-certified plastic surgeon who completed MBBS from Government Medical College, MS, and MCh in Plastic & Cosmetic Surgery, with residency training at AMU, Aligarh. He currently serves as an Associate Professor at SKN Medical College & Hospital, Pune, which means he actively teaches and stays connected to the latest developments in surgery. He also consults at Pulse Multispeciality Hospital and Sahyadri Hospital, Bibwewadi.
His patient reviews specifically for gynecomastia stand out for one consistent pattern: men travel from distant cities, one documented patient came all the way from Buldhana, specifically for his surgery. The feedback after their procedures describes them as “painless and scarless,” with liposuction combined with gland removal. His Justdial profile carries nearly 200 ratings, and his overall recommendation rate sits at 95%.
Dr. Tated’s style leans toward simplicity, clear communication, accessible clinic environment, and quick scheduling. For men who find themselves overwhelmed by high-gloss clinic marketing and just want a skilled surgeon who gets to the point, he’s a solid choice.
Ideal for: Men in Bibwewadi, Katraj, Kondhwa, Hadapsar, or southern Pune who want accessible appointment scheduling and honest, direct consultations.
Dr. Rahul Dalal brings a genuinely rare combination to the table, he’s not just a cosmetic surgeon; he’s an internationally trained reconstructive microsurgeon. He completed MCh in Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery at AFMC Pune, followed by a fellowship at Tata Memorial Hospital (Mumbai), then another fellowship at Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre, Melbourne, and additional cosmetic surgery training at Melbourne Institute of Plastic Surgery. His credentials are internationally verified by ECFMG (USA).
For most gynecomastia cases, that level of reconstructive expertise translates to a surgeon who handles complex anatomy without difficulty, particularly useful for men with higher-grade gynecomastia involving significant skin laxity or asymmetry. He performs the pull-through technique, ultrasonic liposuction, skin resection with nipple transposition when needed, and keyhole areolar incision approaches.
His hospital footprint across Pune is extensive, Jupiter Hospital Baner, Jehangir Hospital, Ruby Hall Clinic, Deenanath Mangeshkar Hospital, Inamdar Hospital, and more. One patient wrote: “I would like to recommend Dr. Rahul and thank him for doing my gynecomastia surgery and guiding my family. We had complete faith in him.”
Ideal for: Men with complex or severe gynecomastia cases (Grade 3+), or those who prefer working through an established hospital environment with full anaesthesia support and post-operative monitoring.
