Hi everyone, I am new here. I have searched the board and read lots of informative posts. I still have a couple of questions that I hope someone can please answer for me.
1) I read most people who have lipo only surgery are never happy with the results. My Gyne consists of fat and there is no hard lump when I feel my chest. Would exsicion as well as lipo still be reccomended for me?
2) Are there any cases where lipo only would be reccomended for gyno surgery?
Thanks again
I prefer my
Dynamic Technique where, what I find during surgery helps guide what needs to be done.
When gland is present, and it usually is, I prefer to start with and target the gland first. By concentrating on gland, I target the tissue that compresses the least and reserve the remaining fat as a potential tool for my reconstruction.
Liposuction is fine for fat. However, all forms of liposuction preferentially remove fat over gland. When fingers of fat are between fingers of gland, liposuction alone tends to suck out the fat condensing the gland behind making a mess.
Liposuction is but one of many tools of my artist's palette for surgical sculpture of the male chest and gynecomastia.
My
Fat Flaps can bring fat into a crater. A flap is tissue moved
with a blood supply. Adjacent fat transfered with a blood supply tends to survive, much better than a graft. When carefully done, fat flaps tend to look like normal fat, feel like normal fat, and move like normal fat. There are limitations to what fat flaps offer since fat still connected to its blood vessels will move only so far.
Try to go through the entire section about male chest sculpture on my site to learn what my techniques of surgery have to offer.
Hope this helps,
