How tissues
evolve after surgery depends on the problem treated, surgical technique, skill of the surgeon, after care, scar care, and how a patient heals. I prefer my
Dynamic Technique in which there is minimal bruising and swelling. The biggest change happens on the operating table. That is how I am able to post images the day after surgery. However, further refinement happens over time as sculpted tissues evolves as they soften with scar care, compression, and healing. As with any cut, tissues need to heal and soften.
You can see other examples of early resuts:

This one sided (unilateral) gynecomastia shows the swelling after surgery
typical swelling after my gynecomastia surgery compaired to the side that had
No Surgery.
Here is another example of early healing after unilateral surgery typically seen with my techniques. Here is another example of
typical minimal swelling and bruising in a 14 year old patient with more images
images of tissue evolution and swelling here..
You can find many more examples on my website of primary gynecomastia tissue evoluation.
I perform many
Revision Gynecomastia Male Chest Sculpture Operations on patients done by other doctors around the world. Each patient has told me how different their tissues were after my
Dynamic Technique compaired to their previous surgery. They all have commented how the swelling was much less, comfort better, and their expectation met, even at their first view of the tissues after surgery. You can see typical tissue evolution after
Revision Gynecomastia Surgery here.However, even with these techniques, the tissue continue to evolve over time.
Here is another example of a patient revised after initial surgery done in Australia, early and 2 years after his operation.This is real surgery and tissues do need to heal just like any other cut or injury.
Scars after surgery depend on the problem to be treated, surgical technique(s), complications, skill of your surgeon, after care, scar care, how you heal, and other factors.
The areola chest skin interface is a great place to hide a scar. Check out the many before after pictures of this Areola / Nipple Gallery
here,
here, and
here. These results are typical for my sculpture of my patients.
How tissues move is important. The human body is beautiful in animation. That is why I show pictures of the chest with arms up, down, and with muscles tight / relaxed in addition to the results from multiple views. Limited view demonstrations can pick the best angle to hide deformities and problems. Such analysis of the results as well as how tissues evolve, the possible need for drains, comfort level after surgery, are important factors in picking your doctor. It is like an artist selecting a paint brush. The results are what matters, not with what tool they sculpt.
Hope this helps,
