I visited a surgeon (board certified) said he was going to do Vaser and an excision because I had the glandular knots. He asked did I want it "flat or sculpted". I said sculpted. Come to find out he only did lipo. Mainly around my chest. Fast forward 5 weeks post surgery and gyno is still there and no excision was done. Last time I went in he said if I wanted more out he would. Why didnt he remove the gland in the first place?! Also, will he keep his word on going back?? It looks no different.
