Worried & Excited! *Updated Photo's*

[fed-up]

Hi everyone, i've got my consultation on monday with Alex Karidis in London, & im really excited to discuss what he will be able to do for me, however - as expected, im very worried at the same time. In my opinion i believe i have a 'Bad' Case of gyne, an the years of bodybuilding especially woking the pectorial muscle has left me with large pecs - but due to the fact that i used to be very overweight - there's also fat, which makes them look larger. Im worried now that i have an 'awkward' figure to perform surgery on, im also concerned about my bodyfat % - i.e. will it influence the outcome of the surgery. I know Dr. Karidis will probarbly answer all these questions for me, however i would also like other opinions.

Please see attatched photo's - any advice will be greatfully appreciated. Fed-Up

well, from those pictures I really can't understand why you  would want surgery........

perhaps a side on pic would be better, but I don't really see much there to be honest...

ive been trying to upload some new pictures, one with a side picture - but with my new camera the quality's too high - thus the file size is too large. In addition to this, they do look a lot worse depending upon which stance, i.e. if the shoulders are relaxed their worse - and if im sitting down they're awful! If you know of a way to change file size of pictures i would be able to post some more. Many thanks

i know what your saying.. iv my op in 2 weeks and my gyne is similar in ways.. iv been into weights for around 3years also and iv built a lot of muscle on my pecs when i tense them their rock hard and i too worried but my surgeon benito assured me id have a flat chest and he recommended no excercise 2weeks before surgery!!! maybe this is because iv a good bit of muscle on my chest i dont know?? but here are my pics take a look because i can see some similarties http://s247.photobucket.com/albums/gg139/irishlad2008/.. iv no fat its a glandular problem with me i think the gland is sitting on the muscle not sure but i jus think its kind of similar good luck

Hi Irish Lad, you do have similar gyne to mine, however i 'Think' i have much more fat in the area! its nice to see similar gyne to mine!

I can defo see why you want the surgery mate. Some people may put up with it the way it is but if it was me I would be looking at getting it corrected. My gyne was different as I had puffy nips and a lot of gland, but as you say, your problem seems to be more fat. However, gyne is gyne and Karidis will be able to flatten your chest no problem.  Go for it!
