Have you ever performed areola donut pexy or do you not like this practice? If you do perform it, is the scarring always permanent or can it heal???
This inquiry relates specifically to male breast reduction or gynecomastia surgery, where there is an excess of skin, frequently in combination with a large areola. And the answer is, yes, I do perform skin resection when necessary as a "donut pexy." I have a number of patient examples of this procedure, but one that is particularly appropriate to accompany a reply on this website can be found on my site at:
Myofiber size is dynamically regulated, increasing, and decreasing depending on muscle use. Hypertrophy is defined by increases in myofiber cross-sectional area and mass, as well as myofibrillar protein content. During muscle growth, cell surface receptors, relay signals from extracellular growth factors, hormones, and cytokines through cell surface receptors into the interior of the myofiber. These signals are then distilled through a myriad of signaling pathways to regulatory compartments known as nuclei within the myofiber. Therein, "myonuclei" harness growth factor-induced signaling into transcriptional signatures, protein synthesis, and notably, muscle growth. Myofibers contain many hundreds of nuclei each of which has a nuclear domain
"One of my friends who got breast implants last year just competed, and I didn't think her implants looked very good. Her surgeon told her that since she's a bodybuilder, the implants had to be above the muscle. Now that I'm planning to get mine, I'm not sure what to do-Above or below the muscle?"
Placement of breast implants in bodybuilding women presents a unique challenge for plastic surgeons and women bodybuilders. When I first started to do breast implant surgery in the early 1990s, silicone gel implants were only available for limited use, and as a result, nearly all of my early experience was with saline implants
Free weights aren't the only thing that's hardcore....
Most lifters will tell you that the most hardcore piece of gym equipment is a power rack. I would agree. And when you're young and invincible, tossing around free weights in or out of a power rack is a wonderful thing. Not too many of us use free weights exclusively though. Modern weight lifting machines are an excellent adjunct to your free weight training and can provide a tremendous variety to any training program. For instance, many believe squats are the foundation to a serious leg building campaign, however, leg presses, extensions, curls, hacks, etc., also have their placeSubscribe to RxMuscle on Youtube
