This is what im thinking about getting done?
(http://www.elyzea.co.uk/cosmetic-surgery/cosmetic-surgery-male-chest-reduction.php)

Anyone Know if this will get rid of it? They are removing the Glands and removing extra fat so it should be ok shouldnt it?

And it costs a 1/4 of what other surgerys are charging?

Please Help.

Thanks ;D

i asked this question around six months ago! when i first heard about this site. i think the general feelins is that due to most gyno cases involvin a gland it needs to be removed and smart lipo isnt enough.

so smartlipo only tackles fat stored not the gland, so u could end up paying twice be carefull! but if like u say there is goin to be an exsicion as well this might be ideal.
are u in the uk?

if it is just the lipo they are offering be wary as there has been a lot of members unhappy with this.

hope this helps

Hi,
Thanks for the reply,
They do say they remove the gland so it sounds like normal surgery to me but with smart lipo? and is half the price,
Trying to find someone who has had this done. ???

Cheers

 ye jake i was having the same problem, when i asked the question awhile back.who actually has had this done in the uk?

it looks and sounds great i even went for a consultation wich i talked to a guy who was like a sales rep.  wich i just didnt feel comfortable with i know the price is an issue, are u in the uk? hopefully someone willl turn up saying they have had this type of surgery.

i havent had the sugery yet but im looking to go with an experienced as i only want to get this done once, i have seen a few unhappy people on this board who have had to do two surgerys? keep this in mind
good luck postiey

If it sounds to good to be true, it is!

The going rate for male chest reduction in the UK is £4k give or take a few £100.

How can this group cut the costs by 75%?  By outsourcing it abroad! Do not take ANYTHING you read on the internet about elyzea with any integrity. It takes all of 5 minutes to go on a website and leave good feedback and in the shady plastic surgery business you can bet that their are people in the company doing it

Dont risk your body with these inexperienced surgeons, you'd be so much better pursuing NHS treatment!

So0o Im scheduled for the 15th of January doing Smart Lipo and gland excision. After watching some videos of the actual procedure on youtube and reading up on it, it seems like smart lipo uses a laser to destroy the fat cells and uses a smaller incision to suction the fat out. Like everyone else says this is only good for fat, but they say it is less invasive as regular lipo leaving the skin tighter and less swelling. I am not too sure how true all of this is but my surgery cost was 3500 dollars in NYC... I guess after the 15th you can find out from me if it really is worth it.
Peace and Love

I dont get it ??? :D Soo is their website a scam?
I wouldnt  pay upfront untill im their,
If it is all true they are removing the gland so it is gynecomastia surgery,
The NHS is  a long path which could take ages correct?
I have found other websites like the one stated,
is their anywere you can just get the gland removed? i dont mind hitting the gym to get rid of the fat myself.

Cheers
Jake

it's a relatively easy operation to botch and mess up. The last thing you want is an uneven or lumpy look to your chest which looks like it has obviously been operated on. Be very careful who you go with. I would only go to the best surgeon for something this important.

I have done alot of research on www.elyzea.co.uk,
Read alot of reviews, spoke to alot of people and although it was a diffrent type of surgery (breast enlargement) everyone gave a positive response. *these wernt 'fake' company people*
Elyzea seems to be a popular company for woman getting a breast enlargement.

Im in the process of getting a loan for this once ive got it i will proberly go ahead with it.

i cant really comment on this type of procedure as no one on this site seems to have mentiond it! i asked this question around six months ago in my search for gynecomastia and what type i had.

the general feeling was lipo alone was not enough but maybe u only have the fat it would be sufficient enought.

in my case i think i have mostly gland fat type wich is directly behind the nipple wich causes it to puff out. good luck to u who is having surgery i will check their website now. again thanks for the info.

Postiey i have the same as you i dont have any fat at all on my body just a tiny bit on my chest were these glands are  >:(
Their website say's they remove the glands.
If i could find a place were they just remove the gland i would be happy to remove the little bit of excess fat myself with a few more chest workout, at the moment the more chest exercise i do on my chest just makes them more visable.
Ive had these since i was around 13  >:( im now 19 and i want these things gone for good 8)

You're looking at the positives all the time, look at the negatives. Dont believe what you read on the internet this is their only advertising platform dont be so naive to think that a few messageboard users cant be conjured up!

Are you getting female breast enlargement? No?

well all of that feedback you've read is irrelevant! This is a completely different type of surgery and much harder than sticking implants in! Real research is

Visiting the clinic
seeing the surgeon (not a salesperson)
reading signed testimonials
seeing before and afters (of the surgery you actually want)

If you really want to risk getting scared for life by an inexperienced surgeon to save a few grand its your prerogative. You wont be the first and you wont be the last!
