Hi there. I had gyro surgery back in October 2015. Its now August 2018 and this is what my chest looks like. It seems that the nipple is almost stuck to the skin and a big hole is there which makes my upper chest stick out. Its worse on the left side since I had a bigger mass taken out at the time of surgery. The worst id the side. Most cases I've read peoples chests look normal when their arms are by their side and it looks weird when their hands are raised. It seems to be the opposite for me.
