I dont want to take the chance of this gynecomastia coming back after my surgery so Im going to ask the surgeon to remove 100% of the gland.  I know that this will leave a bit of compression under the nipple.  Im just wondering if anyone else has has this done?  If so what will it look like.



It's difficult to move 100% of the gland, and if gland is removed too aggressively, an unnatural depression will result, which can be very hard to correct. Remember it's always easier to go back and remove more as opposed to try to correct any indentations or contour deformities.

what do you mean with an unnatural depression?

The natural contour of the male chest varies from patient to patient, but it is not natural to have a concavity under the nipple areola complex which might result if every bit of tissue is removed between the chest skin and muscle. As such, too much tissue removal will result in this type of depression, which is very hard to correct.
