No probs mate.
I was similar to you in ways, but I'd disagree to say you have out and out puffy-nip gyne. You do have a fair amount of underlying fat aswell, giving your chest a more boob-gyne appearance. I'd say you have 'a-bit-of-both-gyne'. Again, not the real name, but you see what I mean!
My nipples were a bit larger, and not as pointed - imagine a couple of domes. I had a fair bit of underlying fat like you have.
BUT...............!!!
Not sure if you have read much of the older posts but basically I had surgery on the NHS a couple of years before my op with Levick. I had ariola excision, where they actually cut about an inch around the bottom of each nipple and get the 'gristle' out direct. It wasn't very successful.
Anyway, my point is that maybe this previous op has something to do with how my nipples are reacting at the moment. So don't start getting worried about what you'll look like. Everybody heals differently and has a different shape and amount of gyne, so it would be hard to base the results of one man on those of another.
Just look at how many people are happy with Levick's work. I'm not at all disappointed, as I know that it takes alot of time to heal fully, and my chest is still changing from day to day. I think I'll get in touch with Mr Levick and get the pre op photos (he takes them just before they send you to sleep) and also see if I can get him to have a look at my chest as it is now. I'm only about 5 weeks post op, so I'm still very optimistic over the results. Maybe I've forgotten how I looked before the op and seeing the photos would remind me just how good Levick is.
It's natural to be worried either before the op (like you) or after the op (like me), so we're very lucky to have this resource and be able to 'compare notes'.
Just stay cool and don't get any real paranoia built up. The better you handle things mentally, the better your body will cope with the changes.
Cheers.
