So Glad to Have Taken the Step Towards the Rest of my Life
PROCEDURE: Stage 1 Gynecomastia surgery
CONSULTATION: Emailing Chelsie the Patient Coordinator was such a highlight of my journey. She was responsive w/ all of my questions, no matter how redundant or minute. Consultation day was on a Wednesday afternoon & I'd recommend bringing something to read or work to do; Dr. Delgado is a busy man. The consultation itself took around an hr; in addition to the pre-op booklet which answers a bunch of questions, they took the time to answer all my other questions, examine me, & instill confidence in the procedure.
Pre-op booklet provided instructions for prep up to a month prior to the surgery, incld diet, foods to avoid, medicine to stock up on, what to expect post-surgery.
DAY OF SURGERY: Arrived at the clinic on time & went straight to a room for vest fitting & waiting for operating room prep. Time between arrival to getting into op was probably 1-1.5hrs. Once on the table I told me to lean back & that was pretty much the last thing I remember until waking up later that night for my wife to keep me in check w/ post-op recovery instructions. Somewhere in between, they dressed me & drove me away.
RECOVERY: As long as you follow the CLEARLY DEFINED instructions, you're golden. Stray at your own risk. Post-op instructions were as clear as a paradise sky. Questions fielded by Chelsie again nothing too minute for her response & enthusiasm.
FOLLOW-UP: Just had my first followup at 4wks. Quick check for Dr. Delgado to examine in person, feel around, & ensure me I'm on the right track.
RESULTS: It's wk 4 out of 6 right now. I'm finally getting back into exercise (lower body low-impact) & there's still a tiny bit of swelling/bruising, but even if this was the final outcome, it's leagues better than the life before. Once I'm able to get back into upper body conditioning, I'm sure muscle gain will finely fill out what was removed.
1000/10 would recommend.
