I chose Dr. Wilcox for Gynecomastia based on his technique of going through the arm-pit instead of on the chest. I'm now 6 months post-op so results are fully realized and unfortunately the outcome is not good. Crater deformities, tightness in the chest, and uneven results between L and R side. Upon final consultation, Dr. Wilcox seemed to think the results looked fine, which worries me for what his standards are for good results. Do your research people! I regret not seeing more doctors before proceeding with the surgery.

I'm feeling for you. He ruined my body and dos not care. He didn't even offer or try and fix what he'd done. It wouldn't have mattered because there was no way I would ever have let him touch me again. I'm sorry you're going through this. I know exactly how you feel. I'm completely shocked with him having 4 star rating. He is the worse of the worse.

We apologize that you were not satisfied with your individual result. Every patient’s anatomy is different. Dr. Wilcox and his staff pride themselves on knowing that each patient is provided an extensive consultation followed by a thorough pre-operative and follow up regiment. Dr. Wilcox and his professional staff are highly trained in the care for Gynecomastia patients. Dr. Wilcox has perfected his technique for “no scar on the chest” by listening to his patients and understanding the hardships and embarrassment brought on by this condition. This is the reason this procedure is the most common procedure performed by Dr. Wilcox. It is probably accurate that he performs more Gynecomastia procedures than anyone else in Texas-about 200 per year. Dr. Wilcox tells every patient that if a question or issue arises to please return to the office so that he can help you.

This happened exactly to me Its odd that its out of character if it happened multiple times. I got my surgery around November 18 2014. The first month I had to come in a every week to have blood drained, then 9 months passed and I still had "heavy brusing" around my left chest area. I would be fine with that, but you also left a 1.5 inch crater around my nipple area. https://www.realself.com/question/dallas-tx-gynecomastia-surgeon-calling-quits#1921739
Its been over a year and a half and I still have darkening around my pectoral area. The reason I am on here is to find a surgeon to help me with the revison, which you told me was perfectly fine multiple times and "I dont think there is anything more I can do for you.
I am willing to very my surgery if need be.
