My surgeon during consultation said that it may not be necessary to remove the gland. What is the benefit in that? Isn’t the point to remove the gland?
Brother don't do same mistake as I done 😢😢😢my surgeon also said me that and doesn't remove gland now after my surgery nothing changed only some upper chest fat is reduced
Man, I’m sorry to hear about that. I always make sure to talk about where incisions are going to be and how big. If they were going to be any bigger than the areola I would have made sure to talk about that with my patients to make sure that was okay. Sorry to hear about your experience and I hope your scars fade as best as possible.
@@ThePlasticLife Well i was told i need it to remove excess skin. Problem is i was lean and there was only 80g of tissue. it was completely unneccesary and i was made to feel i was wrong when highlighting that everyone i know has only had incision around the areola.
@@KerLurOTurHur That can be the case sometimes. There’s two ways to address loose skin after removal of all the gland tissue: 1) remove it right away and have a scar or 2) let the skin retract over the next 6 months and if there is any poor aesthetic from the loose skin then go ahead and remove it. Either approach might result in a more noticeable scar on the chest and the possibility of those scars should be discussed before surgery.
The more weight you can lose before surgery will help you to get even better results. If you have the surgery and then lose a bunch of weight then there’s a chance you could have some loose skin if its massive weight loss. But if you just need to lose about 10 to 15 lbs and are young then you should be fine having the surgery
Sometimes that can happen. I’ve done cases where after I finish my lipo, i can’t feel any glands left behind. However, I will still make the small incision along the areola border to investigate as there have been times that there was a small amount of gland that was present, just difficult to feel through the skin. If you have the results that you want, I would enjoy your new chest and give it time. There’s a good chance it won’t return and you’ll be fine.
Can you recommend anyone in Arkansas, i live in North West Arkansas. I've been an unhappy person for many years due to gyno. no matter how much exercise and running i do, its still there
Some indentation after the procedure is normal for a few weeks after, but if it stays like that permanently then the likely problem is that not enough tissue was left under the nipple to support it in a normal manner.
Thats a great question and one I should probably make a video on. The short answer: over the age of 18 if it is still around, men should get it whenever they really want it. Under the age of 18 depends on factors such as psychological impact (teasing, embarrasment) and wether it tends to go away in the family or how young the patient is. Very young like 10 to 12 I’d recommend waiting to see if it gets better, 13 to 18 is kind if that grey zone. It could go away, but the confidence boost guys get when its gone can really help psychologically
2-months ago a have surgery gyno know I’m happy but I feel un equal to sides of the my boobs I don’t know what is that my I will bag my doctor after to weeks good luck
@@ThePlasticLife Thank you sir. So far so good. One side has healed near perfectly. The other scar is a bit more raised and spitting more of the dissolvable sutures. Wearing silicone sheets over both scars and my compression vest. In the gym doing just legs (3 weeks post).

@@sabirbelim...... so sad 😢 you can reduce upper fat without surgery by dropping your fat percentage by doing exercise and caloric deficit diet😊
My surgeon cut 2cm either side of the areola completely unnecesarily. Im in the process of opening a lawsuit. Makes me so mad..

I don't live in Texas can you recommend anyone in the Boston area that's takes care in all these aspects for a good outcome for me?
Closest to boston and best surgeon I can recommend in the North East is Dr Lebowitz at Lebowitz Plastic Surgery in Long Island.
@@ThePlasticLifecan you recommend someone in Oklahoma City?
How much would it cost all together the lipo and the gynecomastia surgery and if possible could you recommend a Doctor in Georgia or in Florida
How much does this cost ?
I've seen deals for around 3k on Groupon but they were for LA. In AZ it cost 7300 and that includes tax, gland removal and liposuction.
@@Chaosfury50 for me, $12,000 in NY state
Also what part of texas are you in?
Doctor ty for the video
You’re very welcome! Hope it was helpful!
Do i need to be low body fat to have the surgery? i am a heavier guy didn't know if some fat loss was required prior to surgery
The more weight you can lose before surgery will help you to get even better results.

what age is minium for surgery
At my practice, if it’s anyone under 18 (15 to 17) we’ll need to talk with the patient and their family members. Otherwise, 18 years old.
My surgeon said to do both liposuction and gland removal but later i found that he had done just the liposuction
Sometimes that can happen. I’ve done cases where after I finish my lipo, i can’t feel any glands left behind. However, I will still make the small incision along the areola border to investigate as there have been times that there was a small amount of gland that was present, just difficult to feel through the skin.

@@ThePlasticLife thank you doctor that help me a lot I was so stressed about it
Can you recommend anyone in Arkansas, i live in North West Arkansas. I've been an unhappy person for many years due to gyno. no matter how much exercise and running i do, its still there
I wish I did. Have you looked around the Little Rock area? Otherwise we’d be happy to do a virtual consult with you from here in Austin.
Do you recommend anybody in Michigan ?
Unfortunately I don't know of anyone in Michigan that I could recommend.
I’ve seen another Dr in the area who does this but I’ve seen nipple indentation after whys that?
Some indentation after the procedure is normal for a few weeks after, but if it stays like that permanently then the likely problem is that not enough tissue was left under the nipple to support it in a normal manner.
@@ThePlasticLife thank you so much. To add on what’s the cost of the procedure for local?
My surgery is 9800 igot git most of it from my retirement im so ready😢
What age do you recommend people get surgery?
Thats a great question and one I should probably make a video on. The short answer: over the age of 18 if it is still around, men should get it whenever they really want it.
