Can liposuction alone permanently fix male puffy nipples?

December 19, 2015
Asked By:tizonalex in Melbourne, AU

I am in shape, and probably have around 20% body fat. Since puberty I have always had puffy nipples. I noticed that after bench press my chest looks more masculine and muscular, but if I don't do exercise that day and I grab my own chest, it feels like a young female breast texture in my hand. So I think I have gynaecomastia. A surgeon's agent recommended that I do lypo suction before she even saw my photo. Just wondering if this is a good solution to my problem without removing breast tissues?
