Asked By:Eyan Fox

To resume it: 1.- I had a gynecomstia surgery 4 months ago. 2.- When it happened, the doctor said "I left a little of gland under the área to avoide the nipple depression". And it was, when I'm touching myself, I feel the gland. Smaller that the first surgery, but they still there. 3.- The pictures talk for  themselves. 4.- Should I talk to my surgeon and say I want to remove all of the gland?
