I had the surgery about a year ago. I am really skinny, always have been, but once puberty hit I had man boobs. I can wear T-Shirts now without feeling self aware and I might actually take my shirt off at the beach this summer. If it is something that is really bothering you and exercise does nothing (it didn't for me) then go ahead. It is the best thing I have done for myself, though my credit card says otherwise.
