I had a tummy tuck and gynecomastia surgery in September 2014. Ever since I have had terrible Erectile Dysfunction problems. My penis can get erect but loses it stiffness almost straight away. This even happens when I use drugs such as viagra and cialis. Before my operation I had no such problems, I used viagra even then due to anxiety/performance issues, but had no problems maintaining an erection. Can my surgeries have caused me to develop these erectile problems?

Thank you for your question and photo! You would benefit from a tummy tuck. Seek a board certified plastic surgeon and have a consultation. Best of luck!Dr Dhaval PatelDouble Board CertifiedPlastic SurgeonChicago Hoffman Estates Oak Brook
Your surgeon will give you the best advice based on your specific situation and how your recovery is going. Generally six weeks for cardio, but it is not uncommon to wait more than 8 weeks for any heavy lifting.
I don't really see that you have dog ears but rather excess fat on your hips. I would recommend either weight loss or liposuction. Lipo would be the faster fix clearly. Skin excision for dog ears is necessary when you have small pouches of skin and fat at the end of your scar. I don't see this...
