Answer: Recovery After Gynecomastia Surgery Hi liton2k,Thanks for the post. At 6 weeks you are still early in the healing process. The skin continues to redrape for the first 2-3 months after surgery with final results between 4-6 months. I have my patients wear a compression vest for the first 4-6 weeks to help with minimize swelling and help skin redraping. However, this will also help once you are able to resume exercise. As for the hard lump under your areola, I will refer you to one of my posts.Sincerely,Dr. Dadvand

Answer: Gynecomastia I have my patients wear a compression garment following surgery until the skin has taken up the slack. Also, I use slim liposuction as well as taking out the tissue directly for a successful outcome. Follow up with your surgeon as revision surgery may be needed once you are healed. Best wishes!
