I had a gyno revision about 6 weeks ago as the first opperation was not successful. The left side seems to be healing well and is flat, however the right side is still puffy and has alot of scars and scabs due to alot of bruising. The right side is fairly soft and isnt very hard. Will it correct itself. Please help

Answer: 6 Weeks Post Op Gynecomastia Surgery It is not unusual for the sides of your chest to heal at different rates. You may continue to have swelling for several more weeks. If you are developing scar tissue it is possible to treat with steroids injections for some patients. Discuss your concerns with your surgeon. Good luck.

Answer: Gynecomastia surgery results Dear renegadeclown, I understand your concern and it is quite normal to be concerned about the outcome following a gynecomastia surgery. However, you are still in the very early stages of the healing process.Your will need to be patient at this moment and follow what your surgeon has instructed you to do post operatively.At the early stage of the healing process, the tissues are still swollen. Once the swelling subsides you will be able to see the final result of your surgery.
