I had suffered a pretty extensive injury a number of years ago. As a result, I had experienced weight gain, and I also needed regular corticosteroid injections for years to deal with pain. This interfered with my hormone levels, and I developed a minor case of gynecomastia due to low testosterone levels. I finally lost the weight, but found I couldn't lose it from my chest, which became an extreme annoyance. I decided to have it taken care of. The procedure went without a hitch, and there was minimum recovery time at the office. I walked out, feeling only a little fatigue. When I got home, I made a sandwiche LOL Dr. Epstein called me that evening, to make sure I was OK, which I was. I had some soreness for a day or two, but it was minor. I didn't even use the pain meds provided. I went back 6 days later, and all was healing well. I wore the compression garment as instructed, and it helped reduce swelling. I saw him a few weeks later, and was able to stop wearing the garment. I was very happy with the results. A few months later, I had a followup appointment. We were happy with the results, but the doctor saw that there was a slight imbalance. This was partially due to a difference in muscle size bilaterally from nerve damage due to my injury. The doctor decided to bring me in for a slight touch up. It was a quick and minor procedure, and it made everything even better than it was before.
