I have puffy areolas and it really looks bad. I think I have slight gyno but I could over come it if my areolas weren't huge and puffy. When they are cold they shrink to normal size. They get puffer than they are in the pic

Answer: Gynecomastia with "Puffy Areolae" Your "puffy areolae" are the result of moderate gynecomastia. You would have prominent breasts even if you reduced the areolae. Because of the significant prominence of the areolae and the skin around them, you need, at minimum, a periareolar donut skin and areolar reduction and resection of the breast tissue. Although the tissue can be resected through a small distant incision, the extra skin will probably be more of a cosmetic concern than an almost invisible scar at the edge of a smaller, flat areola. Make sure you see a board certified plastic surgeon with significant experience in dealing with more than minimal gynecomastia.

Answer: Gynecomastia definitely not. For about 15 years we have been doing the surgery completely through a tiny almost invisible incision inside the armpit. That includes not just the removal of the fat with Liposuction, but removal of the dense gland tissue using a specialized instrument that can liquefy it and suction it out through the same small incision. It's a well described technique and offered by board-certified plastic surgeon's. Find someone in your area that does the operation this way and you will not have to be concerned about scars.
