One Year after gynecomastia surgery
Last year at this month I had complete gynecomastia surgery so far I didn't receive a good results. I still have big puffy nipples. My money is wasted. My photos proof that.
I have been having gynecomastia since I was 10...
I have been having gynecomastia since I was 10 years old. My nipples were puffy and visible from shirts or t-shirts; this made me self-conscious and frustrated. I avoided sports, beaches, and every activity that demanded to wear a t-shirt. I got teased because of my breast so many times and that was emotionally disturbing. I tried many times to get rid of them, but I couldn't. I tried different exercises, weight lift, and diet and finally gave up when I became 22 years old and learned how to live with them.
Beginning of this year (2014) I made getting rid of gynecomastia my number 1 priority. Last month I decided to face the issue and go for surgery. I spent $3800 for the surgery and $400 for hotel and for the lab to check the tissue if there’s any diseases. The surgery went good and didn't have complications. I had incision to remove the breast tissue and liposuction. After two weeks my doctor told me to take off the compression vest, now I feel my nipples are puffy again but they're a bit smaller than before. My doctor told me that's because they're still swollen and you'll feel normal after a year, which is too long. Anyway, I can say it’s worth to have the surgery done, even though it takes for a while to notice the real difference.

I wouldn't recommend David O. Smith plastic surgery located in Edina, MN if you're looking for gynecomastia surgery. Spend your money on a different Dr, who would do the job right for you.
