Is a revision surgery needed? 6 months post op (Photo)

Thank you for your question. Typically swelling can last approximately 8-10 months. I normally wouldn't recommend going in and revising it until closer to a year mark. I would suggest speaking with your surgeon closer to the year mark and making a decision. Best of luck to you.

You may need a revision if you're unhappy with the results. However, I would advise waiting a whole year prior to revision. It's hard to judge by the picture, but glandular tissue is difficult to remove with liposuction alone, which mainly targets fat. You may need a excision through a small incision. If your plastic surgeon believes it's improving, I would continue to wait.

Dear Kroppsfixare,
I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment, it would be difficult to determine what went wrong. It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment or ask for a second opinion. Only after a thorough examination, you can get proper recommendations and advice.

If your tissue swelling has completely resolved you can undergo revision of the first surgery. You might have residual breast tissue and fatty tissue as well. It is important that you have stopped exposure to any medications or supplements that generate estrogen, such as anabolic steroids or testosterone. If you have Low-T and take testosterone make sure you also take an estrogen blocker medication.

For sure you need a revision as your feminized breast were not mascullinized. We believe in creating the armor plate chest appearance which requires flattening the breast mound around the areola as well as building up the borders of the chest to make the bold and linear. Please check out the paper written about the armor chest plate appearance which will describe the proper contouring procedure required to fix your concern. Please also consider a virtual consultation by a high definition liposuction provider.

Dear Kroppsfixare ,
Thank you for your question. It's hard to tell from the photos without an examination. In gynecomastia surgery, most of the time We remove the fat by liposuction and the gland which is hard and does not come out with liposuction is removed with surgery. We also tighten up the skin with J plasma or Renuvion . Little changes can still take place 6 months after the operation.
