Hi everyone. First of all a great thanks to the founders of this site. Its a great platform to share experiences and to know people across the world suffering from similar problems. I had referred a lot of material from this site and today I have been successfully able to get rid of the bilateral gynecomastia condition I suffered from.
Am 25 years old and I hail from Mumbai, India. As far as I remember I had known this condition since I was maybe 10 years old. Till date it had caused me lot of embarrassment. I had never been out swimming and always had a shirt on, being conscious all the time. And recently, one fine day, I decided that enough is enough and something needs to be done, that too, at the earliest. I visited a private clinic and I was advised ultrasound assisted liposuction and was asked to do some basic medical tests and blood reports. Later I came across numerous articles on the net which suggested that traditional liposuction beats ultrasound assisted liposuction on many accounts. Thats when I decided to look out for other options.
I digged in the internet for hours and zeroed upon Dr. Samir Kumta. Fortunately my friend's mother, who happens to be a noted doctor as well, also suggested Dr. Kumta to me. Well, with no further delay I took an appointment and went ahead to meet him in Lilavati (one of Mumbai's premier hospitals in Bandra). Dr. Kumta, a very professional medico and a good natured person, examined me and explained me everything from the process, post operative conditions and cost structure. He suggested traditional liposuction. I decided to go ahead with him.
It would have been a wrong decision to make had I went ahead with private clinics. Reason being Lilavati is a huge hospital where one of the best doctors and anaesthetics are available 24/7. Surgeries conducted under general anaesthesia have to be performed and monitored by skilled hands. And of course hospital services are readily available in case needed in extreme cases.
So finally the surgery was scheduled for 15th December and it went perfectly fine. The hospital staff was extremely caring as well. And as of today I can see the results for myself. Absolutely amazing!! Of course there is some swelling know which will gradually subside in few days time and also I need to wear a certain pressure garment to attain better results. So everything ends well and am very happy that finally I got rid of it.
The cost structure - Dr. Kumta generally charges $550(approx. INR 24200). Of course the rates would differ depending on the method suggested and other factors. The hospital has different classes - twin sharing, single, delux etc. So you can choose accordingly as per your convenience and budget. You can confirm the rates of the hospital by contacting them at
www.lilavatihospital.com . If you need to contact Dr. Kumta personally on his cell you can drop a reply to me and i'll let you know. You can also google on Dr. Samir Kumta to know more about him and his achievements.
Once again thanks to everyone here. I have learnt a lot from you guys. All the best and take care.
