Hi, I had surgery in March, everything went well. Recently I have started trying to hit my chest with some weight training, at first I noticed that I was getting acne around a lot of the area where lipo canulas went in. Now I can feel a roughly 2cm diameter sore lump behind my right nipple, I would post pics but there isnt anything visible on the surface. What do you think I should do about this? I want to be able to lift weights and it has been a long time since the surgery.

Yes, very definitely return to your surgeon and have him examine you.  While actual re-growth of gland is doubtful, some growth of scar tissue is possible.  This can usually be treated by injections of kenalog.
