I had gynecomastia surgery including liposuction about a year ago. When I look in the mirror and I keep my hands by my sides or lift them up in the air my chest does look flat. But when I flex my muscles my chest seems to stick out, my pecs feel hard, round and pointy when I do flex. I do still have some fat in my body and I am trying to lower my body fat %. I want to find out if I still have gyno or is it fat tissue?
Answer: Have I had successful gynecomastia surgery? Do I still have gyno or it chest fat? How can I have firmer & toned chest? With regard to the gynecomastia surgery, if the entire gland was removed, you should not be experiencing a recurrence. To better sculpt your chest lipo may be required and reducing your body fat while maintaining an exercise regimen. Seek a plastic surgeon with specialty training in #gynecomastia surgery, has great photos, and is an expert in male breast reduction.

Answer: Gynecomastia Dear nachau15, Thank you for your clinical post and photographs. Although difficult to tell what your pre-operative photos might have looked like you appear to have a nice chest contour to both in front and side views. There does appear on the bird’s eye view to be some extra fat under your skin, but on top of your pectoralis major. This fat or fibrofatty collection is amenable to liposuction. Modern techniques of liposuction such as laser assisted Smartlipo, Vaser Lipo or even BodyTite radio frequency assisted liposuction will ensure that you get the flattest possible result post-operatively. In my practice, I have been performing cosmetic liposuction for over 20 years and gynecomastia is an important part of the business as with the newer technique such as BodyTite, Smartlipo or Vaser Lipo. The fat tissue of the chest can be liquefied prior to removal, greatly enhancing contraction and making the procedure less uncomfortable. I hope this information has been of some assistance and best of luck. R. Stephen Mulholland, M.D. Certified Plastic Surgeon Yorkville, Toronto
