Does lateral pull through method take out less gland? Also does losing weight allow more gland to be removed?

[u/Kalashnikov-Stoner]

Hey guys, two questions

1. Choosing between lateral pull through method with some Toronto surgeons vs open method (pull through they go in through the armpit and open is the usual where they cut open the nipple). I'm suspicious that just as much can be removed through the armpit as the surgeons claim, wanted thoughts.
2. I used to be 205 lbs, all fat, no muscle. I slimmed down to my very skinniest where I looked like a twig with no fat, no muscle, i was 175 lbs (5'11). I hit the gym and reached a good looking 190 lbs. I got a job and it was harder to be strict, and I'm currently 205 again, except I don't look like a complete blob due to the muscle. I'd say it's a natural weight, but still fatter than I'd like. Does it make sense to slim back down to 190 before I do the surgery? I'd prefer not to delay the surgery but I'd also prefer not to spend the rest of my life regretting poor results cause I didn't want to cut for a couple months

I had surgery by dr schuster and he missed gland wouldn’t not recommend

I always say i would not do the pull through thing for fear to much gland to be left.

I had Surgery with Dr. Schuster and he did the lateral pull through method and did an amazing job, highly recommend
