Liposuction on man boobs - 2 months later, how do I know if I still have swelling?

I suggest posting before and after photos and speaking to your physician or seeing an expert for a second opinion if you are concerned.  It takes 3-6 months to see the ultimate results.  you may need additional contouring and/or gland removal based on your description.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Because of the anatomy of the male breast tissue liposuction as treatment will have fairly prolonged convalescence relative to swelling. As long as the trend is favorable from week to week there's nothing to be concerned about. Some of my patients take a year to reach the final resting point.

Thank you for your Question. It is very hard to comment without seeing any pictures. Swelling after lipo can last 3-4 months sometimes. If you are concerned you should talk to your surgeon 

At two months, your results should be fairly close to final. There's undoubtably still some swelling, and things will change to a certain degree. If you think the results looked more impressive immediately after the procedure, then I am more optimistic that your results will continue to improve with more time. Male breast glandular tissue is typically found just below the nipple areola and can feel like a firm nodule. Numbness and overall changes in sensation can continue to change for a year or even longer. The two main reasons men fail to see great results after just liposuction is either because of skin laxity, which can easily look like remaining fat, or the procedure was not done in aggressively enough.  To differentiate if there is skin laxity, raise your arm over your head. Now pinch the skin with your other hand to assess how thick the subcutaneous fat layers are.Best of luck,Mats Hagstrom, M.D.
