Can this bad gynecomastia surgery be fixed? (Photo)

Generally I recommend waiting 6 months after the initial surgery to perform revisions. During these months there is a significant amount of inflammation and it is never advisable to operate on areas that are inflamed.

Dear Lightning06,
My recommendation depends on how far post-op you are. This would not be an unusual scenario a couple of weeks post-op, but it would be unusual a year post-op. I recommend giving your recovery 9-12 months and re-assessing your result. Recovery is an evolution. Best Wishes.

It looks like you are still in the early stages of healing following your gynecomastia surgery which was complicated by a hematoma on both sides. Because of the complication, it will take longer to heal. It is unfortunate when a complication happens, however we do know that they do occur from time to time.

When I look at your photos I see that the scars are still fresh and there is lumpiness and uneven contour on both sides. The scars will continue to improve as they heal. The lumpiness and uneven contour will continue to heal as well. It is too early to be alarmed, right now it is recommended that you wait things out while the healing occurs. I recommend you gently massage the scars and the areas that are uneven and wear a compression garment. Both of these actions will help smooth the scar tissue and swelling that is present. You can use a favorite lotion or oil to massage and gently rub the areas with clean hands 5 minutes twice daily. Be sure to follow up with your surgeon's office as they will be able to assess the tissues in person as they heal.
All the best to you,
Dr. Nancy de Kleer
