Mild gynecomastia. Would the results from surgery look normal, and how much different would my chest appear? (photo)

Asked By:Wv42 in Morgantown, WV

I've suffered from gynecomastia since jr high, a mild case. Too many times i've seen before and after gynecomastia surgeries that just make the chest appear slightly unnatural. I've always been pretty athletic and have had pretty low body fat, which I think would make it more prominent. I don't have a problem with it when it's cold, in fact my chest appears rather normal. Aside from my aureola having dozens of white bumps on them, I was also wondering if this could be treated as well
