Pec implants after huge gynocamastia gland removal to fill the skin and give the chest a perfect manly shape. Opinions?

Question

I have seen this done a lot in pics however I have doubts about: 1) will it look fake? 2) can it be detected by touch if my significant other touches me? 3) it is placed under the muscle so would I suffer from animation deformity? as in the implants will move as I flex my muscle in an unnatural way -- I saw this complains a lot from female who got their implants under the muscle? 4) Will I be able to do chest workouts afterwards without restriction? 5) how will it age?

I would recommend fat grafting to the chest instead of pec implants after gynecomastia surgery if you have a lot of noticeable tethering.

Number one
The pec implant doesn't look
fake if it's custom carved to your anatomy and is done by an experienced
surgeon that has a lot of before and after photos on his website.
 
Number two
The implant won't be detected
if it's a done with the correct implant that is a semi-solid implant that is
not too hard as some of the companies and some of the products offer implants
that are very hard and are not consistent with normal pec muscle.
 
Number three
It is placed in between the
pec major and the pec minor so you will not have a flexing deformity or an
animation deformity when you flex your pec muscle, which is different than
females who have breast implants underneath the muscle. The pec implant does
not project as much as a breast implant.
 
Number four
You will be able to do chest
workouts afterwards, but you will have to wait a period of time and speak with
the surgeon about when and how aggressive to begin your workouts.
 
Number five
It will age very well and it
will age much better than if you would not have had the implant in at all.
 
The most important thing is to
go to an experienced surgeon where he can tell you all of the information and
he has lots of before and after photos on his website and lots of patients that
you could talk to you about this procedure.
 
Good luck
