Gynecomastia Surgery Gone Wrong ?
Hello Everyone,
I’ve had large gynecomastia since a very young age of 8-9 years(maybe even younger).
After living with this embarrassment for almost all my life, i got its surgery i.e. Liposuction+excision done about a month ago at the age of 23.
It looked good initially with a drastic reduction in size and i think it was flat that time….,doctor claims to have removed about a pound from each side….and i believe him, but recently about 4-5 days back i started to notice them getting big and stuff underneath(especially behind the nipple/areolas) has gone very hard, and its protruding, giving it all a breast like appearance again
I’m still wearing my compression garment everytime.
Doctor says its swelling and will go away in 3 months time, but i have my doubts and anxiety.
I still cannot remove my shirt in public…..hate myself.
Anyone knows about it as to what itt is and what can be done for it ??
Eagerly Awaiting a reply.
Have you seen another doctor for a second opinion? Second opinions are never bad to have, and no doctor is perfect. He might be right, but if he’s not, that second opinion could be worth your life.
no
Believe the dr. With almost all plastic surgeries, it takes 3-6 months for it to show the full effects.
Tell your dr what is going on. Might be scar tissue on the inside, similar to what women get after breast augmentation.
I’m about to have a procedure done on my own Gynecomastia… The surgeon said that sometimes fluid might start to build up inside, but that it’s not a big deal because it can be drained. That’s all that I heard from him about it swelling up. I’m worried about the possibility of having slight inversion in my nipples… I can visualize it… It doesn’t look to nice…
