Bro you jus told my story. I have been battling gynecomastia for the past 3 years now, I also noticed it for the first time back then in NYSC camp bauchi state, I was also told it will disappear with time on its own(I believed the doctor and didn't get any drugs) but this has not been the case as it has more than doubled over this 3 years period. Am presently considering surgery to completely remove it and then initiate testosterone therapy

Jakumo:


Mine was done years ago in Ontario California. The total cost of the surgery at that time was $1,200 USD.

My prediction is that such an operation would cost up to 400K naira in Nigeria today, but once again, a COMPETENT surgeon with a proven track record MUST be sought out, to avoid errors being made.

Blaksheep:
If u haven't gotten the money for your surgery yet, I'll take care of the bills for u. Cheer up.

Jakumo:


Don't lose hope. My estimate is very likely wrong. I simply converted the amount I paid in the US, into naira. My estimate could be off by many multiples of the true figure that this surgery would cost in Nigeria.

There is no substitute for your carrying out your own price survey with reputable doctors in Nigeria. Since my surgery was done long ago, even the technology used for this procedure may have advanced to where it has become a minor, affordable procedure.

Shop around for pricing. Figures posted online, based on the past, may no longer be valid.

Day 1

After the surgery.... The surgery experience I can't explain but thank God it was a success

odunade01:
Mine is only on the right breast, will it cost the same price with those that had on both breasts. Pls Enlighten me

godwon01:
It doesn't go like that. It is excess adipose tissue that accumulated there. U have to operate it and U will be prescribed on hormonal drugs. No need to panic. Best of luck.

babawon2:
I must do mine too. am ashamed. I want to live normal lofe

demo4ril97:
Yes there was a visible decrease around the operated area post surgery, which later formed a fluid (seroma) within a week and was drained out.

Healing process should depend on your body system, I think there begins a noticable change within 6-weeks.

It exactly one year March 28 I got the surgery done and I can now go shirtless and do most activities I have stopped while growing up.

Your scar is quite big, unless your breast mass was a huge one.
We don't usually use big incisions that'll result in big scars.

21sailor:


How can I reach you sir?

ChybuzzDD:


I'm not currently in Nigeria, but we can chat here and then see how we csn proceed

21sailor:


I'm in a similar situation too, just that mine should be Grade 1.
I'll like to know what it would Cost me, if I'll be able to gather it up cos I'm just a student but also a tailor and the embarrasment from this man boóbs is not funny.

My operation was carried out by a doctor whose office was at the time located on North Mountain Avenue, in Ontario, Southern California, not far from Ontario Airport.

That said, there are bound to be competent doctors who can carry out the procedure in absolute safety if you happen to live in Nigeria, though you will need to exercise due diligence in selecting the doctor to perform this simple procedure with the precision that is essential, to prevent complications post-surgery.

My surgery was done under local anesthetic, so after being given a couple of small injections on the chest, I could sit up fully conscious to observe the process, which was accompanied by a loud repetitive scraping noise, as the doctor separated my skin from the underlying tissue with a blunt instrument, while a steady stream of blood was vacuumed off by the nurse. It is vital the surgeon ensures ALL the fatty tissue beneath the nipple is cleanly removed, including the two narrow string-like structures called "tails" that extend upwards toward each armpit, along the lateral edges of the chest (pectoralis) muscle.

For week or two at the most after the surgery, the doctor will leave a tiny drain-pipe in the stitched-up cut through which the surgery was performed, to empty out fluids as the healing takes place under a light wound dressing. When that dressing comes off, and the tiny drain-pipe is extracted, there will still be some minor swelling that will subside completely in another week or so, at which point this minor medical condition that has inconvenienced you for so long, will cease to be a part of your life, forever.

Once again, do NOT pick an doctor whose reputation cannot be thoroughly investigated, because the are are risks of nerve damage or even infection that can ONLY be minimized by putting yourself in the hands of the most highly qualified and experienced surgeon one can afford.

All the best, my brother, and remember, don't allow anyone to steer you into hormonal treatment. That chit is really bad news to the human body. Surgery is your ONLY viable and SAFE option, if handled by the right doctor.
