Cost to Fix Nipples Stuck to Muscle After Gynecomastia?

Thank you for your question.You must be patient!  It is far too early in the #healing process to consider a #revision #surgery of your #nipples.  It takes up to six months to see the final results of your #gynecomastia surgery.If you have major concerns it is necessary to book a #consultation with your #BoardCertified #PlasticSurgeon to decide the best course of action to take and to see if another surgery is really necessary.

 Three weeks is very early to consider any revisions and I would highly recommend that you wait at least 4 months before contemplating and additional procedures.

Hi,Thanks for the post. At three weeks it is too early to consider doing any revision surgery. You may be experiencing scar tethering, meaning that the underside of the skin is forming adhesions to the muscle beneath. This maybe able to be improved with massage techniques and stretches. If after 6 months there is minimal to no resolution, then you should consider revision surgery.Sincerely,Dr. Dadvand

Hello,

This may resolve with more time.  Several months should be given and evaluated to follow the process.  If it does not fat grafting can be performed.

All the best,

After reviewing thousands of gynecomastia patients it seems that very few patients may develop it after the procedure, and other that suffer from it prior to surgery.When it start post op it usually disappear after a few months to a few years.It is usually not a bothersome condition (Exceptions are rare),but there are several options,that can be discussed with very experienced plastic/gynecomastia surgeons.

 

In our practice, we have seen many patients who are presented with chest deformities or nipple deformities after having received gynecomastia surgery at other facilities. Fortunately, these patients have several options. These patients may benefit from a reverse liposuction to help even out these qualities and a surgery that will release the underlying fibers that are tethering the skin and areola to the muscle underneath.
