FTM Top Surgery Procedures
Double Incision Top Surgery
The best choice for medium and larger chested trans men. Horizontal incisions along the bottom contour of the chest muscles are made, and the nipple and areola are removed, then resized and grafted back on. Sensation in the nipple and areola is usually compromised, if not completely numbed.
Peri-Areolar Top Surgery
A very good option for trans men with A to B-sized chests and good skin elasticity. Concentric incisions are made around the areola, and breast tissue is removed. The skin is brought together like a drawstring purse and connected to the outer edge of the downsized areola, similar to a drawstring purse. which may be downsized. The nipple stalk is usually left intact which helps retain sensation.
Keyhole Top Surgery
An ideal choice for trans men who have a small chest. A small incision made along the bottom of the areola to remove the breast tissue and the scarring is quite inconspicuous. Most men also opt for nipple resizing, which can be done in a few different ways but the nipple stalk is usually left intact which helps retain sensation.
