Ok, surgery done.... When did you start to see what was REALLY done? (Swelling gone)
It's been... three days... the drugs kind of messes with my sense of time... and the current look (if you minus the black and blue patches) looks slightly improved, but leaves much to be desired. Also... my chest looks smaller!

I wanted a permanent fix and made the decision to get the surgery done... I couldn't be happier with my decision and the price was acceptable for me... Dr. Blau is the most experienced doctor that has performed this type of surgery, so I went with the best to put my mind at ease... Good decision!!

It took a little over a month for all swelling to be completely gone, I'd say 6 weeks for the finished product... It may be frustrating at first because the 'swelling' is right in the area where you got the tissue removed... Mine did look slightly improved right away and has only gotten better over time as the swelling as disapeared... But it was sensitive to the touch if you pressed hard for several weeks post-op
Mine never had any black and blue marks tho... There was the mark where the incision was made, but that has faded and you can't notice it at this point... My chest didn't feel 'smaller' either, it looked much tighter and shaped better even 3-4 days post-op even with a little swelling

UPDATE: Bruising almost gone... The generalized swelling seems to be lessening daily, but I have noticed hard lumps forming under the nipple... Like only just now I'm getting REAL gyno! lol... I think the gland (what's left of it) is swollen. I have my next check up on Thursday and I'll find out for sure what's up.

still have the hard lumps... I've been reading up on this and it seems to be common. Some say it takes up to 6 months for the swelling (LUMPS) to disappear. It has to do with the healing process of skin.

Koubs – I have been thinking about flying out to see Dr. Blau myself......i have the same problem you had, my chest looks really good when my nipples are hard, but when they are soft they look kinda of puffy.....it's not really bad, but it really makes me self-conscious.......i do the exact same thing that you did when you take your shirt off, before I go swimming or something like that I always try to pinch my nipple when no one is looking to make them hard........lol........i really want to get this taken care of so I don't have to worry about it anymore. I'm trying to get everything figured out, so I can make a trip out to see Dr. Blau at the end of the summer......i got a question for you bro........since I will be flying out to see him, how many times will I have to fly to NY? Do you have to fly out to meet with him before the surgery and how many follow ups do you have?
Thanks!

Sal: Yup, it sucked being out of the gym, that was the longest layoff I've ever taken really.... but I'm real happy I got it done, I was always so self-concious about it...
Tank: Glad to see you here on RX! Here's how I did it and how pretty much all of his out of state patients do it:
-You want to first call and speak to Maryanne or Brenda: 914.428.4700 ... Explain to them that you will be sending pictures and would like to set up a PHONE CONSULTATION with Dr. Blau...
-Send pictures to [email protected] , and include name, age, and any other pertinant information (Maryanne or Brenda may tell you what you need to include or you can ask)
-Dr. Blau will then look at your pictures (Take them from the front, the side, the top, every angle you can) and determine whether or not you're a good candidate, which most likely you are if your situation is similar to mine... You will talk to him while he's looking at pictures during the phone consultation...
-Then you'll set up the appt. I set mine up on a Friday morning and got out there on Thursday to briefly meet with Dr. Blau in person... I flew back to chicago on Wednesday and saw him again that day when I left... There's a hotel 2 blocks from the office that they will refer you to...
Let me know if you have any other questions... I understand how it is man, it puts your mind at ease once you get it taken care of
**As far as additional follow-ups: They shouldn't be necessary... I got the couple stiches taken out on the Wednesday I left new york and from there the incision just fades.... If you have any questions afterwards, you can call and they are very helpful

You guys are all getting ripped off. $6200 is outrageous.
I had my gyno done a month ago by my wife's dr. and I paid $1500 and I'm extremely happy with the results.
The whole process takes less than an hour.
Seems ironic that our dr. makes my wife's tits bigger and makes mine smaller. LOL!
