Hello, I had gynecomastia surgery performed when i was 12 im now 26 it wasn't done by a plastic surgeon and i feel getting it doin at that age didn't help either. Is there any type of procedure that can be done with permanent results to improve the crater deformity i have. And what would be a ruff estimate on the cost

Answer: Nipple Depression after Gynecomastia Surgery Your problem was most likely do to over resection of your breast tissue beneath your nipple. Revision gynecomastia surgery is often difficult and requires a well trained board certified plastic surgeon with experience in redo male breast surgery. An exam is critical to give you an opinion but most likely fat transfer is required. The below link will direct you on how to find the best plastic surgeon.

Answer: Crater Deformity After Gynecomastia, Would a Revision Fix this? (photo) Judging from the photos, I suspect you would need revision surgery including scar release, revision liposuction of the chest, and possible fat grafting to the subareola region. Consult with a board certified plastic surgeon in your area. Good luck and be safe.John T. Nguyen, MD, FACS, FICSDouble Board Certified Plastic Surgeon

Answer: Crater Deformity after Gynecomastia Surgery?
Thank you for the question and pictures.
Yes, revisionary surgery may improve the “crater deformity”. The surgery may involve the combination of peripheral liposuction around the depressed area and grafting to fill the depressed area.
Make sure that you are consulting with well experienced board certified plastic surgeons.
Best wishes.
