I am a 37-year-old male that had Smart Lipo with tumescent liposuction done on my abdomen and breasts 23 days ago. I immediately have noticed a difference in my abdomen but I am worried that my breasts are not going to be flat enough. Is it still too early for me to judge my results? Does it take the breast longer to go down than the immediate results I see in my stomach? My Doctor told me that I did not have much granular breast tissue.

Answer: Give it some time. It is too early to tell. It is recommended to wait 6-9 months before considering a revision. Please give it some more time.

Answer: Lipo is inadequate for true gynecomastia Standard liposuction will remove FAT not breast. The results are suboptimal correction because breast still remains. I always combine aggressive chest wall liposuction with glandular excision. A small incision is made (camouflaged around arealo) to remove the actual breast. Without excision, you will have breasts after lipo.
