*RAW & UNCUT* MY ADVICE TO ANYONE GETTING GYNECOMASTIA SURGERY!

My name is Jacob McDonald and I want to welcome you to my UA-cam channel.
In this series of videos I take you through my gynecomastia surgery and post-surgery recovery journey.
My story goes like this. I developed gyno through the onset of puberty at around 12 years old and dealt with the sh*t that came with it for 15 long years.
That included various levels of bullying throughout my school years, never feeling comfortable without my shirt on and an extreme anxiety surrounding wearing anything that wasn't dark in colour because all I could ever focus on was my nipples.
It wasn't until I started going to the gym regularly at around 18 years old that I decided to do some research and figure out exactly what this was, why I had it and what I could do about it.
I eventually found out about gynecomastia surgery not long after that and due to my particular case not improving or changing at all since developing it at 12 years old I knew that if I wanted to fix this properly I would one day need to get this surgery.
The surgery was always out of reach due to the price and I also began to just live with it and accept my body. However my love for bodybuilding and training in the gym grew over the next few years and at the age of 24 I competed in my first bodybuilding show.
I can safely say that at this point I was living life without too much of a worry because I had learned to accept it which comes with age and maturity, but certainly still lived with the anxiety around wearing light coloured clothing etc.
I reduced my body fat down to single digits for the first time in my life at this point and realised that I may have what people might describe as a "minor" case of gyno but in my mind, it was even more pronounced.
I knew that if I wanted to get back on a bodybuilding stage one day that I would need to get the surgery done.
I was eventually able to find a surgeon that offered a drastically reduced price due to the surgery being covered somewhat by Medicare which is Australia's version of government subsidised health care.
I finally decided to book the surgery and in November of 2017 at 26 years of age I had the procedure done.
My recovery was a rocky one. It tested me mentally like I had never been tested before and through that I decided to bring my experience to my UA-cam channel.
That was one of the toughest things I've ever done but it did help me due to the support I received at the time and now has also gone on to help thousands of other men dealing with the same issues I faced.
I faced depression, anxiety, regret, disbelief, and many more emotions throughout the recovery process but managed to stay strong and if there is one thing I can say with the upmost confidence as I sit here today, that would be that the surgery was still worth it.
I want you to make the right decisions when it comes to choosing a surgeon, preparing your body prior to surgery and looking after it after surgery. Do what I say, not what I did.
I've made a video playlist on my UA-cam channel titled "GYNECOMASTIA" for you to find easily.
Thanks for watching my video and have a great day!

I got my surgery 2 days ago!!!!! I am soo happy. I genuinely wish the best for all of you that have it. I can't explain the happiness that I feel after 12 years of pain! Good luck guys, please stay strong and don't lose hope.
how long is recovery?
Just had surgery done yesterday. Have dealt with it for about 30years. 😞
how much did it cost you bro and where did you do it? thx

Takes a big man to be open about something like this. Respect.
Or a big nipple
Not really
no doubt,most embarassing bullshit ever!
@@glenmetcalfe9784 why’s it embarrassing? It’s something that occurred naturally in the body and it’s treatable.
@@kgthdc2468 its called PRIDE!smh maybe go for a walk on the beech and youll find out lol.Is common sense a super power today or what?
got mine done 10 years ago. Don't hesitate for a second. 100% worth every penny.
Did it affect your testosterone?
@@mann8283 not at all. Still highly sexually active. No side effects at all.
just wanna let you know that this video was probably one of the most important things I’ve ever watched in my life. Thank you so much.
Got my gyno surgery about 3 months ago, procedure went very smoothly and took about 2-4 weeks for me to fully recover with a compression vest. No drainage required and it feels amazing. So happy with my results and not to mention the military paid for it since I’m active duty 🙏🏽 pretty awesome
After you removed the compression vest did your nips look normal and all, also were you able to still perform more strenuous activity right afterward? good on you tho bro!
@@bigvel5766 hey bro, so it’ll take about a solid 4 weeks for your nipple to look normal again. Mine was a little weird lookin in that it looked like it was caving in but it evened out fine after a month. Do the surgery, you won’t regret it and you’ll thank yourself afterwards now taking my shirt off is not even a second thought
@@bigvel5766 mainly just listen to your doctors advice and do exactly as they say, I wore that damn compression vest everyday 24/7 unless I was showering it sucks but it’s necessary and usually it’s about 2 weeks average to have to wear it post surgery.
@@aroyalflush4000 i’m most likely going into surgery within a months time bro, good to hear that it took only 4 weeks for it to look normal again, i guess it varies with how bad it is, my gyno is very small, no lumps or anything but the puffiness in the nips just ruins the physique, i’m pretty lean so hopefully i turn out like you! btw how long did it take you to hit the gym after surgery?
@@bigvel5766 right on I had the same issue as well just oversized glands so they took them out and it was all good I didn’t workout for a full month just to let my chest heal up fully once the stitches are healed you should be good but for me it took a month
I had this surgery 5 years ago. I had some bruising and swelling for awhile. Kind of made me worried, but around month 3-4 I could tell majority of the swelling was gone. After around 6-7 no swelling. I feel like after 1 year I was totally recovered and really felt so glad and relieved I had the surgery. Now looking back I am so much happier 5 years gyno free. Rarely ever think about it. Thank you for posting your gyno journey for the rest of us.
Man I dont like needles and knives. lol Hearing they put you out completely is very tempting. I'm dealing with my gyno for 14 years. I'm so tired. I dont even know my insurance is covered.
Did you work during this time? My worry is I can only get a month off, but i know my body and will need 3-4months. Skin removal for chest and stomach. I'm nervous about employment during the recovery.
I did this surgery 11 years back, don't regret it and this totally changed my life!
Do you think I should get it, I’m gonna be 16 soon and I’ve had it for a while, and it makes me feel like shit but idk if I’m too young for it
@@nuclearclown5374get it man if it makes you have low self esteem. It will change your Life. Stay strong and safe 💪🏻
@@nuclearclown5374
Wait until you are 22, and by all means, save as much money as you can, all over the world, this surgery is extremely expensive.
@@nuclearclown5374go for it bro
@@nuclearclown5374I waited till I was 17 and honestly I don’t think it made a huge difference at 16 you are prolly fine to get it but ask your doctor first
Kind of similar story here- have had gyno since puberty. Family and friends make fun of me, and have been living with depression w it for years. 25 right now and got into natural Bodybuilding the end of 2019. And my mind has been wrapped around making myself look and feel better. 26 in November and if I can land a job w Air Force or something else that makes me happy, you and this video are helping me out thanks Boss
Did u get surgery?
I've had moobs since pre-puberty. I'm 52 & finally had bilateral gyne lipo & gland removal in June '21. I followed the pre-surgery advice in this vid (100 pushups/d, 2 months from surgery) & it's had really good effects. 9 days after surgery, I feel good, have minimal chest pain & good mobility.
PS - Dec '22: 175 PUs / squats /d, increasing to 200. Good results. I finally have the chest I've always wanted. Do the prep & get the surgery.

How much did it cost
@@yabbaWtf $5,500 USD in Apr 2021. Worth every bit.
@@argonunya8751 does it look seamless and like there wasn’t even a surgery, also did your areola get smaller? Like more masculine kinda areolas because mine is kinda large
Mine got done just 4 days back under local anesthesia. It's a whole different feeling, especially since I have suffered with gynecomastia from the last 15+ years. Best wishes to you and thanks for this video.
Which city/DR and cost? Also, did you feel pain under local.
I train quite some days at home and at the gym but I think I have slight gyno, some seems a bit weird to me is I feel like some guys have Gyno but its not as severe as others so some could have chest fat but have Gyno on top which makes it look alot worse than usual my body fat levels are quite low not the leanest but id say its enough to build good chest gains but only problem Is I think I have slight gyno due to low testosterone levels, so I decide to buy a pill which I will use only once a week it might help if that doesn’t then I guess it’s surgery time :/
@@AB-kw2ux I did it in India and the cost was around $900. Pain under local was very minimal and tolerable.
@@jmy871 what kind of pill
Recommend any doctors in the US?
8 Days Post Op!!! Feeling Great and Ready to Motha***** Rock out and Chase my dreams!! Thankful for everybody who is doing the proper work to get rid of Gynecomastia... Thankful for all the lessons and healing here!! Peace
I’m going under surgery in 5 hours time. Wish me luck. ☺️
Phalaax Izmeil before and after pictures?
How did it go. Did the have to do lipo?
Dustin N hi. Yup. Did it with lipo. Today is 11th day post surgery. Right side is completely flat but left is a but swollen. Doctor said it is normal that how my body reacted and it will go. Started massaging and have to go for review after 12 days.
xxkj - can I have your email address. I can email to you.
Hi, my email is dustnewell@gmail.com. was your bruising bad? Did you have to wear the drains for long. Thank you for responding!
Great video bruh, you pointed out some good do's and dont's. I would recommend to anyone who is interested in gyno surgery to spend the time and find a surgeon who you are completely comfortable with. Ask to see video or before and after photos of their work. I had gland removal with lipo 8 months ago in Austin, Texas. I was back to norm in less than 3 mnths without any signs of gyno or ever having surgery. No drains either. If you have gyno, stop waiting, save up and get it done. It's the best $ you will ever spend.
6:53 welcome
💜💜💜
Thank you 😆😆😆😆
I highly recommend the surgery. My surgeon did an amazing job. Absolutely amazing, as there was no scaring or abnormal shape left behind. I did work out years prior to my surgery in attempts to lose the chest fat naturally. I’ve always been thin but people suggested that I just carried fat in my chest. That was not the case. 6 months after my surgery I was proudly able to wear fitted shirts without feeling self conscious about my chest. It’s been 4 years since my surgery and I’m beyond satisfied. Highly recommend it guys!
Does it hurt after surgery???
Ali Saeed no
How much did yours cost?
Where did you get it done?
How much please
I’m on day 7 of recovery. It’s crazy to me how flat my chest is, although there’s a decent amount of swelling. Even with the swelling though, my chest is so much flatter than what it was before. Very happy, and ready to be out of this compression vest lol.
How is it now? 5 months later
How much was your surgery
@@user-xb4cr1ym4f depending on the severity of your case. but mine was about $4,200
@@professionalbirdlawyer7443 dead ass ? Where ?
@@professionalbirdlawyer7443
Can you please help me with the location 4,200 is not bad
I was under general anesthesia and was out of the office within 4 or 5 hours. Home same day and I was def put out completely. So out of it when I woke up after it was removed. Best thing I ever did.. Not sure why I waited so long.. Biggest impact on my life out of anything I've ever done.. Soreness and all was nothing compared to the issues I Had with gyno.. Amazing how much of a positive impact this has had on my life.. Def agree with the advice on here saying to build the muscle and lose as much fat as possible prior to the gyno removal. It will help you a lot, trust me.. Make sure your surgeon has a solid approach to avoid cratering nipples and to contour the pecs / chest to get a nice masculine look. This is as important as actually removing the glands.. After surgery, take it easy and plan to do nothing for a few weeks, even if you feel like you can.. Get some hydrocortisone cream in case you're itchy like I was. Wear the compression shirt for a full month. I dont care what anyone else says, wear it and dont cut it short.. You'll be glad you did later.. Take the recover seriously and this will be the best thing you've ever done for yourself. Good luck guys!
Did you lose nipple sensitivity? If so, did it return?
My surgery just got scheduled. I’ve dealt with this my whole life. Even when I was at my leanest and in my best shape, I never liked the way my chest looked. Thanks for sharing your experience!
Hey! How did it go brother?
@@matedzlieri4988 it went great! Just hit 2 weeks post-op yesterday so I’ve been easing myself back into the gym. I’ve got a decent amount of scar tissue that I’ve been massaging out, so there’s some tightness when I raise my arms up and to the rear. There might be some stuff to clean up once I’m all healed, but I feel like I look so much better with a fitted shirt on now
@@kgthdc2468 I am happy for you. So how long did it take , 2 weeks to get back to the gym?must be such a good feeling after removing so much weight from ur shoulders after gyno surgery!
@@matedzlieri4988 yeah I waited 2 weeks before starting to hit it again. I had some scar tissue build up that was limiting range of motion the first couple days but I’m back to lifting heavy again. It’s a noticeable difference, I’m happy with it!
how do i schedule this?
2:32 was so motivational but I felt you were staring right into my eyes, i felt the shame.
Edit: that 1080p60 though is on point.
Haha well, get to doing those push ups then brother! ❤
I've been watching you for a year seeing all your videos on gynecomastia. Yesterday I finally did the surgery after so many years it bothered me! I want to say thank you so much for helping me! Secondly I wanted to say that you also frightened me a little because of the pain you had the day after surgery, for me it is different there is no pain, a little uncomfortable but no pain at all and without taking a pain reliever and pills, I pulled out 350CC of fat and also the breast tissue. Secondly, I am from Israel and the surgery here costs something like $ 5270
But I paid $ 3600 because I got insurance.
Third thing FOR ALL : You don't have to suffer like this for years because of such a small thing !! Don't let this put you in depression !!!DO IT!! Good day everyone ### and thank you again man :)

Hopefully will have my surgery in September.
I feel so excited and nervous.
@@KustomGear1 That's awesome man.
Experience for me was so much easier than removing my wisdom teeth.
John W okay this just shot my nerves so much lower haha thanks for easing my nerves brotha
When I get this surgery I’m wearing the tightest shirts 🤣🤣
Dude this is my dream. When I was younger I use to never wear shirts or a muscle shirt can't wait
Me too
Got mine taken care of around 18 in the 80's. Whole adolescence was jacked up. Take care of it as soon as you can. Dont wait or suffer like me.
Thanks this gives me and probably many other people a bit of courage to indeed do it sooner than later.
@@Tntpker dont wait brotha. Some guys live with it their whole lives and dont really care what people think. They get on with their lives and their "bitch tits" and dont feel the need for surgery...they have normal relationships and families
You've seen them everywhere.
Sensitive guys like myself are ripped apart on a most basic level--that of feeling like a man, being attractive and opening up to relationships with the opposite sex.
I used surgical bandages to wrap myself every morning in HS and wore a T-shirt and then a loose, open button down shirt over that. Never got a second look. I came up with this remedy myself.I got out of swim classes by bullshitting about inner ear inflammations and took golf and tennis instead. But going to the beach,Spring break or the waterpark with friends was impossible. I didnt have extreme gynecomastia, but enough tissue to elicit a rude comment now and then. It broke me psychologically and has poisoned my ability to have normal healthy sexual relationships, even after surgery. Get it done and get some counseling.
Dude!!!! How was your recover in the 80s??? I can’t imagine it was as good as has you had surgery today?? Are you happy with the end results ??
You just got mine done and it been one of the best decisions of my life
Did you have to do lipo
getting my surgery done May 10th, 22. this upcoming tuesday. i see all the comments, never thought i'd smile from other people's happiness. i'm excited and hope for a smooth surgery. this is something i've wanted for about 10 years now.
Had mines may 9th yesterday
Was it painful during and after the surgey
I’m doing general and i was told I’ll be home the same day. 8 days from now can’t wait !
Andy Whyte right on man that is awesome! Did you have drains or any complications? I hear getting drains removed is not fun
How are the scars
how much did it cost? @theoneguy
Thinking of having it done next month
25 yrs old. 78kgs. 6ft. Melbourne, Australia. 2 days since my surgery - slightly sore but glad it's done. Gland removal and liposuction. The vest is slightly annoying but it's manageable. My brother and I both did the surgery on the same day.
Surgery cost me 9k (without private insurance). Happy to pay more knowing I got a specialist for Gyno- not some backyard butcher. Very happy with the process for far.
Hoping for a great result :D
Looking great Bro. It looks like it was worth the pain.
Have this gyno shit as long as i can think, tired from it. I train and stay in shape but never get rid of it. I want that surgery.
Love your vibe brother, I’ve been saving for 3 years straight and in doing my research & I appreciate you taking the time to make the video, I live in Dublin & it’s just looking for the proper surgeon & the best for value, I’ve to do some serious thinking, you have a new sub, much respect for making this video because I know all to well how hard it can to talk about it,,, Thanks for your time
Hey Taz, living in Dublin also, who did you end up going and how was the experience?
I am 17 and i aslo have Gynecomastia. Its very embarassing when i get to take off my shirt in front of someone. I loved swimming when i was a kid but i gave up that hobby because of this problem. My flight school classes are starting from 20th july. I am stuck between my thoughts and now i strongly feel to have a surgery. I am fedup of this shit. But still i cant build up my mind for this. I dont know what will be the right time get this surgery. Some words from you will be highly helpful.
Clash Killing!! Do it
Ashton Duffield I will soon Thanks for replying
Honestly it’s one of the easiest surgery’s out there , it is minor . Recovery is only a week fam
jaylin marksman that really helped me coz i am very scared of getting it done
jaylin marksman You have been through this?
Thank you for this. I didn’t even know there was a name for this. I am 40 and been ashamed all my life. I hope I can afford the surgery.
I was similar to you had to save up for this but do wish I just took a loan and got it sooner.
On day 2, wish me luck. My Surgeon in San Diego does several Gyno surgeries a week. Really confident in him. He doesn't do drains but I have a tight compression vest on right now. Feeling good, no pain or discomfort aside from the tight compression vest.
I’m in San Diego too. Who’s your doctor? I am considering Dr. Chen and two other doctors in Tijuana. Your advice will be very helpful and appreciated.
Just got it done 5 days ago! Recovery is going well so far
i just had gyno surgery earlier today and it already looks so much better and doesnt hurt as much as i thought.
I'm gonna do it too.. In the process of getting lean 1st. ua-cam.com/video/AASE3UAFLyk/v-deo.html

@@GM-jm6te USA, it costs 2700$ + fees that totaled to about 4600$.
and no its not covered by insurance.
it looks fantastic though already, i had so much muscle under my man boobs from trying to work out to get rid of them. and now i just have a muscley chest
I'm getting my surgery done next month, I'm anxious ngl, don't know what to expect really, wish me luck 🤞🏾
How did it go, how much did you pay
I'm getting mine in two weeks. Pretty excited to have a normal chest. I got pretty lean for this surgery and my doc says he's very confident ill have great results based on already being in good shape and it only being a mild to moderate case. I already my skin has good elasticity also. Can't fucking wait lol Had my pre op appointment yesterday actually and paid for it in cash, $6,100. My surgeon does everything through two small holes on the side of the chest, no nipple damage at all.
@@chriswilson1968 good luck! Also some video or pictures of this on a post somewhere would be greatly appreciated. Based on my research, if you’re fat and lose weight you still have to get gyno surgery to get a good looking chest. Just my luck :/
@@ColdComrade Yeah but you'd probably only need lipo and no gland removal at least. Idk if I'm ever taking pictures lol
@carl moore It went pretty well, healing up nicely.

Thanos mine went really well thank you. I had mine done in Poland, I was put to sleep, and stayed the night in the clinic, with great care. I'm wearing compression garments (no drains required) and apart from a bit of swelling, bruising and being uncomfortable, I'm recovering well. How was yours?
Adam Macleod mine went great. Basically the same as yours. I had mine done in toronto

Adam Macleod yeah I needed no drains
Hey man I'm 13 and I have gyno.
This has gotta be one of the realest videos I've seen so far on this topic, I wish you a great recovery.
Been wanting to get it done as well. Took prohormones a bunch for working out in my teens an into early 20s... Thanks for the advice dude.
LOL same. Even funnier when you did it knowing the possible consequences lol the shit we do after high school
Friggen tren xtreme got me in high school 😑
Had the surgery done on Thursday and I could say your case could have easily been fixed much faster. 48 hours post surgery I took my first shower and my chest was already flat. I've watched your videos many times and it is very noticable that you had the hematomas from the very beginning and it just got worse.
This is why it's important to listen to your body and choose the best surgeon available.
Thanks for the tips.
I just did my surgery 9 days ago with a top plastics surgeon (he’s done over 100 gyno surgeries and showed me pics). I watched all Jacobs videos before surgery and I could relate to EVERYTHING he said. I’ve been working out for a few years (mostly body weight exercise and running) I got to a stage where the gyno was getting on my nerves (imagine having abs and man boobs at the same time I’m 180cm 71kgs). There was a hematoma that formed on my left side (2 days after surgery) and then the doctor drained it. It’s now a week since he drained it and there’s more swelling on that left side and it doesn’t look good whatsoever. From the way things are looking right now I’m not expecting it to look okay before 4/5 months. My advice would be get as muscular and lean as possible and take a look at your chest. If you decide on surgery then rest as much as you can the week or 2 after surgery and expect hematoma/seroma, scars or some serious swelling in the following weeks/months. Thank you so much Jacob for sharing this !! Btw I did the same mistake and travelled 3 days post surgery. Cheeeers bruvss
12inchesthick hey man I have mine in 8 days. Hoping I don’t get a hematoma. Can you tell me the process of how you got your drained and was it painful?

Starting saving money for Gynecomastia !!!! it 's time they disappear from my body!!!!!!
I was thinking about it too but I just seen some video of some dude with a mild case like me and he just focuses on upper chest and doesn't do lower flat bench presses because that pushes the gyno out and makes it look more pointy but if you do upper chest and back and traps and shoulders it will pull all that skin up and make it tight so you won't be able to tell unless you squeeze it unless you have a severe case that is that and eating all healthy and taking a natural testosterone booster and hormone balancer supplement drinking a bunch of water and getting good sleep and I think eventually you would look fine unless you have some type 3 gyno or worse

Thanks for all the information through out your journey mate.
It’s encouraged me to get the surgery and I’m on a week post-surgery now.
Your recovery videos are helping me compare my condition to yours and less my worry.
Thanks again mate ! 👍👍
Got mine 12 hours ago. Even with bruises the change is dramatic. I had minmal/normal breast glands but significant fibrous fatty-tissue. Still so surreal
And how is it now ?
Thanks mate i just hsve 3 weekends after my gyno surgery i had my doubts but after see you result i think in gonna be good
You're awesome man. It was you that encouraged me to look into surgery. I got my gyno surgery yesterday and the doctors are going to keep my drains in for 8 days. They took out a half pound of tissue in each breast! Fucking crazy huh. I'm not in any pain really, just not able to move my arms much. I have dinosaur arms basically.
is there any scars left ?
Thank you for this video.
I really wanted to make this surgery but now i am sure i will do it.
I really took the advice about drains to heart. So when my doctor ended up cutting out the glands and not putting the drains in, I was a little worried. However, I ended up having no bleeding at all and my recovery has been smooth so far. So I’d say, it’s probably up to the doctor to determine how your body reacts and wether the drains are needed at all
Ive had gyno for more than 10 years. Its real tough ngl, cant wear light coloured shirts, always getting disturbed. Been gymming for 5 yrs and didnt rly do much. Just went for my first consultation and i cant wait for surgery
How was the surgery
Update?
@@ham5483 as of today i am 8 months post surgery. My surgery was slightly different than the traditional cut around the nips and pull it out. My insertion was done near my serratus which causes less bruise and faster recovery. Overall i can proudly wear light coloured t shirts, am less shy about my body. it was the best decision ever made. i don't have to think about being embarrassed anymore or wearing black coloured tops. Although my dr kinda f*ed it up a little. my left is not the exact even size. it was too much of hassle to book through appointments again so i didn't do anything about it. it still looks way better than having gyno and was just a minor issue. if u have the chance to do it, do it 100% from a gyno man to another gyno man.
@@adhnrjb thanks man, ive been watching moreplatesmoredates videos on it and i think im gonna try the pharmaceutical way first, where did you have the surgery done and how much was it?
@@adhnrjb did you go to a gyno specialist? How long was the recovery? Sorry about all the questions
Boys I’ve had gyno for like 4 years and I’ve got answers. I’m 17 btw. I ran some tests with my doctor and they said it’s due to an increased amount of progesterone and prolactin. I have high testosterone levels and normal estrogen levels but still have gyno. Currently being set up with a specialist in hormones to get me sorted out. I’ll keep y’all updated.
Give us update
Yo
The last 30 seconds meant a lot to me, Thanks, I'll probably get it done
Im scheduled for Sept 15! I have Grade 2+ gyno… Im 30 years old and have had moobs prob since i was 13 . Its been hell… kinda mad at myself for taking so long to go ahead and get a surgery … glad I finally took that step that’s gonna change my whole life!
How did it got? I’m 25 and had it since 23 cause of test booster pills
@@youngmillionaire7480 it went great brother! im 4 days post op. Just today i got my drains removed, and i got to see my new chest today. i havent had much pain, not enough to take my pain meds anyways. Im only left with my compression vest for one more month, which i can take off to wash it every now and then. i already feel great mentally and physically… Wish i had done it ages ago!
@@2k17si6 fuck ya dude, I miss the polo shirts🤣 how much did it cost
@@2k17si6 hey bro any side effects?
@@mann8283 still a bit of burning sensation only when i take off the compression vest, otherwise i feel normal.
my surgeon says I might not need drains, my case of gyno was like yours, they say it is not bad, and I am already very muscular since I obviously tried building muscle to hide it. I have a good friend coming into town to take care of me and keep me on a meal plan for my recovery. thank you for sharing your experience, when we were kids there were no resources like the information you have put out there on gyno, I am very thankful for your videos, I never considered getting them removed and I have some money saved up from when I was in the military and I am getting it taken care of thanks to you!
Hey! Always listen to your surgeon :) Super glad to hear you are getting it sorted out finally and that my videos helped with the decision! Stoked for you mate, good luck with it all.
Thanks so much for sharing this my guy!! Not a lot of guys are open to talking about something like this because it's not "manly" or "too feminine" but really these things do happen. I don't really like to share stuff about myself but I understand 100% what it's like as a trans guy getting chest masculinization surgery (or double mastectomy as it's medically called) and having drains and a tight ass compression vest with surgical pads all strapped to my chest really frickin sucked but the results are amazing.
For any guy out there struggling with this you're not alone. My situation may be different but we're also the same, my body is just different at birth.
If you got it you got it, time to get it out- this sums it up perfectly
Hey Jacob, thanks for this. It's been really helpful. I guess I'll take you up on the excercise bit. I've had gynecomastia couple of years now. And now it's really increased to the point where it's gotten large and very noticeable on my thin body. I was planning on it for March but quarantines kinda delayed that. But hopefully once my lockdown ends. But thanks for all the tips. And can't wait for this to get done.
Keep up the good work. Subscribed ;)
Just had surgery done after 7 years of pain. Returning to this to take in the days of anguish I went through. Stay strong everyone and get thay mf surgery 💪💪💪
Yo how is your chest now
@@aboka1d Its flatter than ever however there is some residual sagging and tissue. I had a really big removal as I had a lot of tissue accumulated after I had lost a lot of weight. It looks better than ever however the shape of the gyno is still there and the skin is most likely going to take some time to actually tighten. Results are not perfect but better than ever and it is not noticable anymore (:
I had surgery two days ago and my experience wasn't really bad. I got local anesthesia and I woke up at one point during the procedure. It hurt just a bit but I was fine. I didn't really experience much pain when I went home, except when I moved around in my bed. Have to be sleeping on my back. Most pain I felt was in my hand where I got the iv drip. It's still sore and swollen. Tolerable though. I went back in the following day for a lymphatic massage. It only hurt when she ran the massager over my nipples and I've had no leakage so far, except for the blots on the dressing when the doctor removed it. My experience doesn't sound half as bad as yours but I guess each person will have a different one. I didn't even need the painkillers she prescribed.
Thanks for letting us see the after. I bodybuilder and even being big with muscles. No matter how much muscle I put on in the chest, I’m still not pleased AT ALL. I need to chill & relax is what I tell myself, but finding your video lets me know this is a common issue and is fixable. Thanks man.
Had surgery today can't wait to see the results when I heal great advice
Awesome to hear man. Good luck with the recovery!
How sore did you feel after on a scale of 1-10?
Samuel Mijares Didn't hurt much after my leg were super cramped from the compression socks I had on. But the only pain i had was day one and they prescribe meds for you and also the drains are annoying but other than that it's been going extremely smoothly
President Hanosh Great!!! I have so much confidence now honestly. So happy i was able to receive surgery beyond greatful
Yeah it was scary for me also. I was very anxious but the doctor I had eased all of my worries with his bed side manner and his resume. Do as much research before hand it will ease your worries.
Have mine in 8 days overwhelmed with anxiety but at the same time so excited
Dan Blizerian ya sure but why
Dan Blizerian I’m 16. ya for sure after the surgery I’ll lyk. I watched a lot of vids of people directly after the surgery and they don’t look like their in to much pain. I’m just ready to get it over with so I can move on with my life
Dan Blizerian hey man I had my surgery and I’m home now. I’m on hydros and I’m not in that much pain. My chest jsut hurts from this vest. It’s not that bad I thought it would be worse. I just ate a large Mac and cheese from panera
@@mitchellgifford329 nice
I'm from India you made my day easy when you told to do 100 pushups 4 months to go for surgery and I'm already on 150 a day 💪
Are you done?
I have surgery in 3 days. Soooooo pumped to wear white T-shirt in the summer
Really admirable to put this out there for others in the future.
hey Jacob, I got my surgery 7 days ago and on the third day I got a hematoma on the left side of my chest only (right side was recovering extremely well).
I just want to point out that I listened to your advice and went to the doctor to suck out the retained blood and water that was causing excessive edema. Thankfully, the doctor himself said that it is best that we do this instead of leaving it out and I got instant relief when he removed it, as all the pressure went away.
Thank you for all your advice and guidance on the series of your gyno journey!
Hello mate
I have my surgery in next week i want to know that is it painful?
@@usmanghani5145 not painful at all. Just a little discomfort - that's it
Had local surgery 2 days ago without drains. Barely any pain now, apart from during excessive movement. Will keep everyone updated. I was concerned with not having drains but there aren't many options in the UK.
@@j3488 I'm fully recovered now and back to weight training. There was slight swelling but very minimal yellow bruising. Swelling is completely gone now, one side is slightly indented when I lift my arm up but I couldn't have got a much better result. Totally worth it.
@@j3488 I kept my vest on for like 5 weeks day and night, then reduced it to just nights and half days.. After 8/9 weeks I stopped wearing it. Go by how you feel and take it steady, but I think it's pretty easy to tell yourself when you should stop wearing it.
@@j3488 luckily I had two vests and switched between them when they needed washing. I didn't remove it at all until I had my first shower after three days but follow your own surgeons advice since the procedures probably differ slightly. I didn't have lipo as I had low body fat but the glandular tissue was nearly palm sized for me!
@@j3488 reaching for stuff was really difficult for me for a long time, I felt like I constantly had to keep my arms by my sides. Just do as little as you can for now, you'll recover before you know it even though it seems like an eternity. I was going on long walks after a month but nothing really before that.
Jacob, I really want to thank you for sharing your experience and the information with us, really feel obliged to you.
Happy someone is making videos about this, keep doin what ur doin brotha .. maybe I should make videos about this topic
It's definately a topic that a lot of people are interested in it seems lol. I would say for you to go for it. Why not?
Dude THANK YOU for this wonderful video. THank you for sharing. The information is very much appreciated. I am gathering as much information for me to undergo this surgery. Your chest looks awesome!! Thank you again, from U.S.
You are the man. Thank you for making this video, had no idea to get in lean shape. Cheers brother you look great
I like that you are being honest. Thank you.
I appreciate that!
Took mine drains in 72 hours. Also, should do it. I would say that minimum terms for drainage is 5-7 days and not earlier!
About to get my surgery in a day!!!!!! So excited and can’t wait. Been preparing for a looooong time
How’s it going
I've been dealing with it for years but I am just not willing to go through surgery for it. It seems too extreme. I think I'd rather endure it the rest of my life even if it makes me a little unhappy.
What's your grade/severity?
Mate you look really good and symmetrical. Thanks for sharing your experience i am getting mine out so good to hear some advice from experience
I'm on the 7th day post surgery and everything is going well I took off my drains yesterday. There's still a bit of bruising on my right side but it's alright
My chest shape is great because I had been working out before it and the scars are barely noticeable. my only advice is find a comfortable pressure vest before you get the surgery.
Edit: my gynecomasita was both fat and glandular tissues. I started developing it at the age of 11
Updates?
@@its_just_me_ Tomorrow will be my 2 month anniversary. Everything is going so well and I've got back to gym. The scars of the tubes are still visible and lumpy. And the skin is still loose a bit. I have before and after pics. DM me on insta @calvar.9
@@tearkayron3021 ---> Glad to hear you are doing well.... the scars and lumpiness will fade over time. Not to worry.
I had surgery 15 years ago this past March. Money well spent.
@@Ducati_Dude that's great man. For me it's been my best decision ever. Totally life changing! It's been 2.5 months now the lumpiness is going away slowly and the skin is getting tighter. At First my nipples were depressed everytime I flexed my chest which made me feel so frustrated but it was just temporary. Everything is normal now. I'm back to intensive workouts such as ring dips and back levers.
@@tearkayron3021 ---> That's awesome to hear Dude.... Yup, a 'Life Changer' it is. 👍
I watched this video some months ago and I had my surgery a week ago. Thank you for your insights. I also want to upload videos of my recovery to inspire other people to make this big decision
Who watching this in 2019?
Ben Dukes I really wish I could
🙋🏾♂️
Me🙏🏻
Great video and gives a lot of perspective. I've done my surgery as well. For anyone worried, take his story as the WORST possible case. He literally did it in the back of a pharmacy. If you go to an actual plastic surgeon, you will literally look normal in 10 days, assuming you're lean to begin with. I recovered fully within 14 days. Cost me a grand total of $4,724 in 2022. No insurance. Included a check-up, scar gel and all the basic meds. Lean out and go to a real doctor, guys. It's generally more affordable than you think.
Thanks for advice, I'm going for a consultation soon to a very trusted doctor. The only thing is I don't think I technically have Gyno per say, but still I'm lean af and have fat on my chest that look like moobs and I can't wear a lot of shirts as my chest is too large. Working out chest only makes it exasperated issue.
@@coreykatz8111 Don't even hesitate brother. It may be an issue with testosterone/estrogen and your other hormones in the HPTA axis. Your doctor should bring this all up and request a blood serum test. If he doesn't, research it yourself and request a blood serum test with total testosterone, free testosterone, LH, FSH and estradiol at a minumum. You may request an endocrinologist if your general doc sucks, like mine did. I had to do all of this myself. If indeed there is no gyno and it's just fat, then it could be a liposuction job and that's it. But, gyno glands can cause fat accumulation in the nipple area because they are estrogen-prone glands, so removing them can stop that from happening. Read Estrogeneration by Anthony Jay for some things you can try naturally to remedy any potential estrogen excess. Godspeed.
@@CrimsonYetiCartoons I got gyno when I was 14 and I know why I was drinking plastic bottles 5-6 times daily and milk from plastic with hormones. Now I’m fine, I live in California and I have a consultation w dr Johnson Lee in Beverly Hills I know he’ll quote me an insane number. I’m a Canadian citizens so maybe if I go back it will be free in Toronto for me. But I want the best doctor, do you think a really good doctor in Toronto could take out all the tissue as well?
@@mann8283 Yep, plastics are god-awful hormone corrupters. Yes, any decent doc will get all the tissue out. Just lean out before your surgery so you have a cleaner slate and the tissue is more visible. The slimmer I got, the worse my gyno looked. So I was really very ready to get it done. The tissue itself is very distinct from the muscle and fat around it. A gyno gland literally looks like a tumor. Any doc could pluck it out. Just need a doc who has done it before and knows how to properly cauterize and stitch you up so it heals neatly.
you look good with the gray cap
Outstanding results bro
daaaym,,your chest looks amazing dude,,good job,,thanks for the advice
suck on it if u like it so much
So happy this post on my recommendation. I will definitely start do push up a lot 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Thanks brosef! I'm looking forward to getting mine taken care of in July
Same
How was your healing process?
I'd be happy with those results. Good info, answered the question I had in mind. Cheers.
Very helpful information before I get it done in a few months. Thanks mate.
Not a problem mate, glad it helped!
U get it done?how much did it cost
Imagine a woman with breast reduction or reconstruction surgery of the breast after cancer...the majority are tough and strong when having these surgeries but it is a scary and major surgery for both women and the men. Congrats on your recovery.
Had gyno since I was 16. Had the op 2 weeks ago under general anaesthetic in the UK 🇬🇧. Best decision I ever made. Worth the money, hands down. If anyone had any questions, especially those in the UK, give me a message!
How much did it cost in the uk?
How much did it cost?
How much was it?
Update?
You are a handsome man... I am 18 I was so upset for the last 2 days after I found out I could possibly have gyno... After watching your video and the tips dude I am so motivated to get lean broooo... Once I am lean Imma do the surgery as you said... Thanks brother
Are the scars very visable?I really appreciate you posting this video.
You look amazing, your results got gave me an adrenaline rush I’m so excited to have my surgery. Would love to know who did yours and some of the smaller details of what your surgery entailed.
I've had gyno since I was 11-12 years old. I'm 33 now, and it's my dream to get surgery. But I can't afford the ~$1500 it costs here. Every year I suffer through the summer until winter comes. I hate this and it definitely shattered my confidence :(
That is a good price actually
You have an anglo saxon name, how is it possible you can't afford the 1500 Dollar? Here it costs 4k Euro (5k dollar).
@@eiserneskreuz4616 It's a fantasy name. I live in Argentina. The minimum wage here is barely u$s 200.
@@martinwright1575 Oh, I see. Minimum wage here is only 450 Euro as well, though. I think the operation is worse saving for. Honstly it is not the money for me, just the fear of operation and the muscle loss after three months without sport.
@@eiserneskreuz4616 Yes, I understand that, since I also have been into sports for over a decade. But I'd be extremely happy taking 3 months off if that meant getting rid of this issue. I'm so fed up of this.
About to do my consult. Your videos and feedback are very helpful! Thank you. 😀 PS- looks amazing bruh. Makes me more excited than ever!
They put me to sleep was home 3 hours later was a little sore but not bad at all.
Anyone looking to get gyno surgery I highly recommend elite body sculpture they’re all over the country and the recovery is much easier and it’s cheaper
