i had my gynecomastia surgery few days back and i see doc did a transverse incision on left(i can see its little open as there is no stitches in the middle they are on top )  and right chest  is around areola ..looks neat

what may have caused doc to opt for transverse incision on left ??? the gland from left was big around 86gms .. but right was only 10 grms less..

will there my any scarring??

iam quite worried about it..


thanks

These are questions that you should direct to your surgeon -- he was there and should easily supply answers to you.

thanks dr . Jacob .
i did ask my surgeon and it was a wrinkle that looked to me as a transverse incision .. i was told that it will shrink  and  get in shape. iam hoping it happens soon.
