Answer: What to Expect after Gynecomastia Surgery The areas after Gynecomastia Surgery may feel “lumpy” or irregular, and should decreases with time. Often massaging these areas will help soften the scar tissue. Also, the #compression garment helps reduce the swelling, and the longer it is worn, the more quickly you will #heal. It can also assist in the retraction of the skin. If you have any concerns about #healing, its best to ask questions of your surgeon or their nursing staff. It's possible that any indentations could be addressed with fat grafting or cosmetic filler(s) if eligible.

Answer: 4 days after gynecomastia surgery It's very early after your surgery so it's difficult to tell if this will need revision. However, if it does this can usually be done in the office under local. The majority of the areola and most importantly the nipple is unaffected. So if this does need to be corrected in the future, there is plenty of tissue with which to work. I'm sure an exam by your surgeon will ease your concerns.

Answer: Weird looking nipple after surgery IIt is a little bit difficult to tell much from the photo but I dont see anything too alarming. Always best to discuss with your surgeon of course. The area at the 6:00 position my be an area of friction injury which is not uncommon with liposuction and should resolve. I recommend calling your surgeons office and asking these questions.

Answer: Nipple Thank you for the photo but at 4 days post op it is way too early to try to judge your final result as things will change. I would bring your concerns though to your surgeonDr. Corbin
