The Perils of Gynecomastia Surgery: Insights from Milos Sarcev, Jose Raymond, and Chris Tuttle
In a gripping interaction on YouTube, respected bodybuilding personalities Milos Sarcev, Jose Raymond, and Chris Tuttle shed light on the potentially disastrous outcomes of gynecomastia (gyno) surgeries.
The conversation began with a surprising revelation from Chris Tuttle, who spoke about soliciting his father’s help for his gyno surgery, despite his father having no prior experience with this particular procedure.
“I had gyno surgery,” said Tuttle. “My dad’s a physician, he’s never done gyno surgery before. I asked him about it and he goes, ‘I’ll give it a shot.’ And he goes, ‘But you’re going to be awake. We’ll just numb the area. If I hit a tender area, just let me know.’ So, I’m lying on the table, he’s trimming away, tracing the nipple and he flips the nipple over and I feel him start to cut the tissue out. I’m like *screaming* and he’s like, ‘okay, hold on.’
Goes in there with Novocain, numbs around the area again, goes back in, starts tugging on it. I didn’t even had that bad gyno but when he pulled it out it was pretty massive, like the size of an old school flip top cell phone. When you look at it, it doesn’t look pretty big but it’s an iceberg.”
Bodybuilding Nightmares: Lost Nipples and Gyno Surgeries
Sarcev, in a shocking revelation, shared an anecdote about a bodybuilder who tragically lost his nipples due to an ill-fated gyno surgery. This extreme case serves as a cautionary tale about the potential risks associated with such procedures.
“I go to the bodybuilding contest in England and I’m watching this… I can’t really like what is wrong, what is weird, what is it? Then I realized a guy had no nipples.I think his last name is Connolly. So, I guess he went to somebody that wasn’t really that much experience and skill to do the gyno surgery. He removed everything including the nipples.”
Hotel Room Surgery: Roelly Winklaar’s Story
Raymond added to the discussion with a story involving bodybuilder Roelly Winklaar who, in an unconventional move, underwent gyno surgery within his hotel room. This story underscores the lengths to which some bodybuilders will go in pursuit of their professional goals.
“I heard a story about I think it was Roelly over at Kuwait and they just came to his hotel room to remove the gyno. It was just some guy in his hotel room just came with some scissors and blades and whatever and just cut it out right in the room.”
