None. I had mine done this past May2006! Its now December 06, and everything is fine! Best thing I could have done for myself..

I honestly cant see him not doing it, I mean if there is a bunch there, why not remove it?? It only takes a few seconds.. My doc was joking and he said he did mine for free.. I know it probably was included in the total cost!

sounds like you got ripped off to me. My plastic surgeon said that for a regular lipo excision, they can either perform an ultra-sonic lipo on the entire chest region then go into the chest through a small hole and use the lipo cannula to remove the fatty tissue. Then, they would remove the lumps, if there were any. Since I had lumps, he made small incisions like a quarter of a circle on the lower portion of the areola and removed them there and entered into that area and removed the fat across the chest. It's basically all in one for the great low price of 5500$. For an extra 3k , they removed my fat on the front abs/flanks
Oh btw, my insurance paid over 6k in bills including the gyno removal lipo/gyno removal is part of the price..But, it does make sense if the doctor went up through a small hole using a cannula - that would leave a raised feeling like your describing. Either way, call your doctor and he'll call you back asap. They're pretty good that way , if they are good that is

If you had gyno, certain lumps are much more easily removed permanently with a scalpel than lipo.
If he removed the gyno then he would still need to reattach the fascia, and he would need to reattach it to muscle, where else would he suture it, skin, bone?
Resorbable sutures last for different lengths of time 6 months to 36 months, I would suspect he put something in there that lasted at least 12 months.
The goal is to have the tissue heal before the suture looses any strength.
That is a fair question, I don’t know, but gyno, like a wart can’t appear, for instance under the breast, maybe it was attenuated, I don’t know unless it had a root type appendage. Or the fascia may have needed reinforcement, ???????????????
Good questions for the surgeon

thanks!
actually when he was formulating the pricetag and said that he didnt need to do lipo, i responded that i didnt care very much what he had to do or not to do, i was only interrested in the result, so do whatever gives me the best result, and he was like, "yea of course, dont worry, be happy" (so maybe lipo isnt out of the question, i would just totally expect him to TELL me if he did something that deviated from the plan!)
I may have applied my own ignorance the the equation, as i've understood fascia to (only)be what contains the actual muscle fibers.. however the skin should be attached to something as well now shouldnt it .. that something is, i imagine, the fascia as well
If that is a 6-36 month suture, it needs to become a hell of alot more flexible.. i would totally suck if i couldt do pullups or chins (or advanced sexual positions) for several years!!
Thanks again!
