Hello, I'm a 23 year old, 6 feet tall, 174 pound male. I'm currently "skinny fat", but have very ambitious goals for my physique (Hollywood actor physique) and know I need to get gynecomastia surgery to help achieve it. I'm currently around 16% body fat and on a solid diet & weight training routine. Cutting right now to eliminate my remaining belly/mid section fat before I begin my bulk to add muscle. Should I get the surgery now or after I am more fit? Any suggestions are appreciated!
