I underwent operation around 2.5 months ago for a grade-1 gyno. The doctor only performed lipo by saying that there was only fatty tissue & no glandular tissues were involved. The results were quite noticeable immediately. I have been wearing the compression vest for 8-10 weeks. But for the past 3-4 weeks, I have noticed that puffiness & hard lumps are back around both nipples. I can feel pain while jogging & whenever the nipples are pressed.Is this normal & will the puffiness reduce/ get worse?
Answer: Firmness and lumps after gynecomastia treatment Thank you for your pictures. Your result look very good. And thoroughness fill the nipples probably represents some scar tissue from the liposuction. Please revisit your plastic surgeon about methods to reduce this. In my opinion massage generally works.

Answer: Healing and Recovery After Your Gynecomastia Procedure Your #incisions will go through a maturation process after #Gynecomastia #surgery. For the first few months they will be red and possibly raised and/or firm. As the scar matures, after 6-12 months, it becomes soft, pale, flat, and much less noticeable. You may experience numbness, tingling, burning, “crawling”, or other peculiar sensations around the surgical area. This is a result of the healing of tiny fibers which are trapped in the incision site. These symptoms will disappear. Some people are prone to keloids, which is an abnormal scar that becomes prominent. If you or a blood relative has a tendency to keloid formation, please inform the doctor.

Answer: Swelling after gynecomastia The things you described are normal for two months after surgery. It is very unusual for all the swelling to be gone away in two months. It may take six months for the swelling to go away. Massaging these lumps would be a good idea if they change size or get softer after massage then they are swelling. The only thing that will go away with massage his water.
