My gynecomastia condition started when i was about...

my gynecomastia condition started when i was about thirteen years old. for years it bothered me, and i thought it was peremanent untill i did some research. i was relieved to find out that you can fix it with plastic surgery. I picked out a plastic surgeon who was nearby me for convience even though on his website he only had a few pictures of his gynecomastia work. He seemed to know what he was talking about when i went for the consultation. he promised me a flat, rounded chest. so i didn't think much of the fact that he only had a few before and after pictures of his patients. i eventually got the surgery, and months later there still seemed to be gynecomastia. i expressed my concern to the plastic surgeon, but he refused to beleive he left any residual tissue in there. he said its just the way you are and this is the best it will get. he advised me to never do any other procedure to try and fix it because it will result in a deformity. i asked if there was anything i can do and he explained he could try and tighten it with ultrasound. he then proceeded to charge me another $1000 for that procedure. needless to say, there was no improvement. he than offered another skin tightening procedure, also involving ultra sound except this time for $1500. i then lost patience and decided to get another surgeons opinion. i googled gynecomastia and found alot of links leading to Dr. Blaus website. There, he had tons of before and after pictures of his patients. all of them having amazing results. i decided to give it a shot, and head to his office. Once i showed him my chest, he instantly confirmed that there was residual gynecomastia left over from the previous procedure. i was hesitant at first, because of all the warnings the first surgeon gave me about doing anything else involving surgery. but dr blau has been working with gynecomastia for 30 years , performed thousands of gynecomastia procedures and his patience before and after pictures were all the proof i needed to go through with getting the procedure.
i ended up getting the surgery, and my chest has never looked better. dr blau is the go to man for gynecomastia and anyone who is struggling with this deformity, should seek out dr blau.

Dr. Blau seems to care alot about the patients feelings and concerns. for example, if the gynocomastia were to ever return (which in the 30 years Dr. Blau has been performing these procedures has never happened once) he would do the surgery again, free of charge. even if certain touchups are needed to be done, he will also do it free of charge. he understands that its an expensive procedure, and that its hard for younger people to afford. it just goes to show he treats his patients with respect and tries the best he can to make the whole process as easy on the patient as possible.
