Hello, Im a 41 year old male who had Gynecomastia surgery 4 months ago. I have an upcoming visit with my surgeon and honestly, I dont know what to ask other than Im a little disappointed. I had full gland removal and liposuction and as per doctors orders, work out and losing weight. I expect there to be some improvement but Im also coming to terms with the fact that this is my 95% outcome. Looking for guidance from the experts as my surgeon last time mentioned there will always be craters and my nipple/skin fold is from stretched skin. Should I consider a revision with my surgeon? Any specific questions I should ask? Also, what is the weird chord running down? I have it on both sides and my surgeon says hes never seen them. They appeared after surgery.
Hello. I previously asked a question about options to address a bad outcome from a previous gynecomastia surgery where the PS removed far too much fat leaving me with large craters. I received helpful information, but want to provide more details. Im lean with very little body fat, so fat grafting would probably give me far too little improvement. A couple docs suggested Alloclae filler might be an option, which Im seriously considering, but concerned it may not give long lasting results. I know its difficult to say since its new. Would pec implants be an option instead? I only want this in order to fill out the cratering and make the chest look more natural. However, Im hoping theres a low profile option that would fill it out without adding much bulk. After treating gynecomastia, the last thing I want is a huge chest. Is this a realistic possibility?
I recently just got gynecomastia surgery. I had drains put in for about 3-4 days. When I had the drains removed at the surgeon's office the doctor told me that I had to wear compression garments like under armour.My question is, how important is this for the procedure I got?, should I be wearing the compression vest like I see most people wearing? I feel like the compression garments are not squeezing my chest down enough..I got lypo as well as the glands removed behind the nipple. thanks
I had gynecomastia surgery six months ago. The surgeon remove a portion of the glandular tissue and performed Vaser lipo. The surgeon removed/melted too much fat leaving me with a huge crater on one side and a smaller one on the other. Im lean with not much extra fat. Is there hope for a significant improvement if enough fat can be found?

I had a gynocomastia mastectomy with liposuction 6 months ago, currently I have constantly been second guessing whether I still have some tissue, scar tissue or loose skin as whilst I dont have the best posture due to years of living with gyno, the nipple still protrudes and looks puffy, although when I raise my arms they appear flat
Hi, I'm 6 months post op and have hardened scar tissue under both nipples. One side (my left side) the scar tissue is painful and I can feel little grainy nodules at the edge of the scar tissue. My other side is smooth scar tissue. Thanks!
I had surgery (gyne) 8mo ago. Areola had scabs and left whitish depigmented spots (see pic). I've also attached pics of 3-month ago. The scar area experienced a color change (seems to be worsening in appearance) Is it advisable to wait for further healing?
Hello, I am looking into getting gynecomastia surgery and was quoted separately for both the gynecomastia surgery as well as an additional quote for liposuction of the chest region. Is that something normal that would occur, meaning the gynecomastia surgery is a separate procedure from liposuction of the chest?
Had my gynecomastia surgery 22 days ago, surgery went well,,five days later noticed some yellow stuff and then there was discharge coming from it and a culture was taken and then it came up as a pseudomonas aeruginosa infection, treated it with ciprofloxacin for a 9 days now and there is still some discharge coming out. Took another culture test a few days ago and the reports show a methicillin resistant staphylococcus. What should I do? Please guide me by checking my pics
