Hi,

I'm 25, and will be moving to Oakville from Vancouver shortly.  I'm still unsure about going in for a consultation with Dr. Fielding in Toronto.  I've tried to search through the pictures and well they all look pretty scary.  I can clearly tell where the incision must have been made around the nipple.

I've done some basic research and I understand you can have it done under the armpit as well ?  Can someone please post some hi-res images of the scars under the armpit.  I only have a mild case, and I'm not sure if having a life long scar is worth it.

I'd rather wait until some better technology comes around which is scarless ?

Thanks...
:)

nismo....

Doc Fielding made a smei-circular incision at the base of my areolas. I am 5 1/2 months post-op and the incision scars are barely noticeable. Trust me Dude, nobody will be able to tell that you had chest surgery.   ;)

Dr. Fielding does make the peri-areolar incision.

Many other PS's are now using a technique where they insert a special instrument through the lipo incision (ie under armpit) to remove glandular tissue, so there is no additional incision made. Dr. Lista is one such doctor who does this.

You can check http://www.theplasticsurgeryclinic.com/ for some pics.

Sorry to take this off-topic, but you look great Bambu!!  Wow!!  From your latest pictures it seems that all the scar tissue that was present for a while is completely gone - especially the right side!!

Yeah, the chest is looking much better now. The first few pics look kinda brutal huh?

And..... for the guys who are worried about scars, check out the pics. My scars are barely noticeable!  ;)

Hi.

I had my surgery with Fielding a week ago.  The results are incredible.  It's only been one week and my chest/profile already looks amazing.

I'm so glad I finally had this done ....

:D

from the sides it looks so much better in even 3 days bambu! i mean wow the bruising but the side angle looks fine if you wore a muscle shirt even the next day......


i hope Warren C law is a good surgeon i only have 1 review so far lol

how hard of a procedure is this for a surgeon?  iwas under the impression it was not difficult and very low risk?

what are the risks?

i am trying not to wuss out this time, last time i said i could work it out by benching big mistake, they stick out now more then ever thank god im not at school you can clearly tell i have them if i wear a t shirt.. dress shirt not soo bad.

my chest carries it a little better but it is more apparent in tight clothing
i went from 45 lbs on each side of the bar to 45 + 15 and i mean it shows working out is a bad call, i still continue because i am not in school tell co-op is over so i may as well get a good chest so i can see it sooner...... after surjury
