I had gynecomastia surgery in which only the gland was removed.

Asked By:lootsurkill in Little Rock, AR

Good morning, first of all, I was told that I would have liposuction + the gland removed. It appears (from my view) that only my nipples have decreased in size, the size of my chest remains. Note, I am relatively fit and not a fat dude, will I be able to lose the boobs through exercise since the actual gland is removed? I don't have pics atm unfortunately. Please, any advice. Is It possible that surgeon did lipo, and that it just looks the same as before?
