Hello,

I am a 18 years old gynecomastia victim, i had this issue since i was 9-10 years old, and it became a severe case of gynecomastia, i am not fat though, i was fat but i lost all of the weight and my boobies are still there, i decided to get my surgery done by Dr. Cruise - Orange County Plastic Surgery, but after time i changed my mind due not having enough money for the surgery plus going from Kuwait to California will take me days to arrive, so i found a very good plastic surgery center in my country, and after 1 month of having blood tests done and meeting the Anestashialogist + buying the garments for after the surgery, my day is tomorrow  ;D i am very excited .. little bit concerned ~ my surgery time will be about 1-2 hours will include breast tissue removal + Areola Resize + Breast Lift!

Wish me good luck guys! i will post a pictures before and after, after i get my surgery done!

Regards for everyone who worked to make this forum a successfull place to discuss the gynecomastia!

Thanks :)

5 Days post-op! The Swelling is gone now! and the pain i think its gone, i feel pain sometimes but it dosent bother me anymore~ will visit the doctor next sunday for a checkup
so far i thought the recovery from the surgery is tough! but the good news is no! :) the only bad thing about the surgery is the first 2 days-post-op because you will feel alot of pain and need to take alot of medications..

After 8 Years of Struggling.. now i feel like i am a new person... 14 Feb / 2009 ( Valentines day ) was my rebirth  ;D
