Hi, i have gyno, although i was overweight durring my middle school & high school years (200-226lbs) i have since lost a considerable amount of weight, now weighing 180lbs. i am 5' 8" by the way. It would be nice to be able to finally see the definition of my lower pectorals, and to have the freedom of just putting on any shirt without wondering how noticable my chest is to everybody. My main question is would i need some type of anchor lift to acheive a normal looking defined chest.thank you

Answer: Probably not You will need a procedure that will remove the e fess breast tissue. Depending on your skin laxity, you may not need an excision. If you do, an anchor can be avoided. Go see a board certified plastic surgeon who performs a lot of male breast reductions.

Answer: Severe gynecomastia Cleveland OH You have severe gynecomastia,for best results you should look for a real expert.How should I choose a surgeon?Selecting a surgeon is as important a choice as the decision to undergo surgery. Choose carefully. The decision is yours. What follows is some advice to assist in making your selection.1. Experience matters. Choosing a surgeon who has performed over one thousand gynecomastia cases increases the likelihood that they have seen a case similar to yours in the past. Selecting a surgeon whose practice is focused on gynecomastia exclusively is also an indicator of experience.2. Results matter. The more before-and-after pictures a surgeon displays, the better. Pay attention not just to the number of pictures, but whether the surgeon is confident enough to show multiple angles of the same patient.3. Reviews matter. Have patients reviewed your surgeon? Did those patients undergo the surgery you are considering?4. Expertise matters. Is your surgeon recognized by the profession as an authority in the field? Are they certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery? Have they authored books or medical journal articles regarding your surgery?We hope these guidelines are of assistance when you are selecting your surgeon. When undergoing surgery, it is very important to be realistic about your expectations. Past results are not a guarantee of future results. Also, revision surgery tends to be significantly more difficult than initial surgery.
