Will Nipples Lift After Gynecomastia Surgery?

1100 cc's removed from both breasts would be a large amount even for a woman undergoing breast reduction surgery.  In order to have removed that much tissue, I imagine that you had fairly large breasts.  Since you did not include a picture, this is speculation on my part.  Still, if you were a female and needed that much tissue removed, I would imagine that you would also need a breast lift.  It is quite possible that, even as a male, a breast lift procedure may be in order if your nipple/areola is to be positioned properly.  Again, this is all purely speculation without a photo.

It is possible that your skin will retract and elevate the position of your nipple and areola. In a patient that I feel is borderline or requires two procedures you may go of the road excision of excess skin. Wear your garment! Only your plastic surgeon can advise you when and if that is necessary.

Gynecomastia surgery typically removes excess breast tissue, and while it can improve chest contour, the extent of nipple lift varies. Factors like skin elasticity and the amount of tissue removed influence this. Consult with a plastic surgeon for recommendations based on your specific situation.
