Looking for a gynecomastia fat flap surgeon

Question

I have a crater deformity from my first surgery and I am looking for a revision - specifically a surgeon who can perform fat flap repairs.

Larry S. Nichter, MD, MS, FACS · Answer

Healthy male patients with excess breast tissue or unwanted breast development who have no underlying breast disease.Men who desire improved physical and aesthetic appearance should have realistic expectations based on their condition and the procedure performed. You should meet with a board certified plastic surgeon to be able to get a formal diagnosis and to be able to decide on a course of treatment if necessary.

The fat flap is a very useful technique. In this procedure the fat tissue is attached to it's blood supply and rotated into the crater deformity. I have done this procedure many times. See the web reference below for links to short videos. Be sure you choose a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon who is a gynecomastia specialist. Good luck.

A common way to treat this is with further contouring with liposuction if possible and the use of fat grafts under the nipple and surrounding area to stop it from sticking/being too close to the muscle.  Look for a board certified surgeon that has experience in fat transfer.  Best wishes.

Did you mean fat grafting? to crater deformity post operation? Seek expert boarded PS in fat grafting to examine you and determine the exact requirements needed. This might be a very minor operation.
