What Is Top Surgery?

Top Surgery is a type of mastectomy performed for transgender men and non-binary transmasculine individuals. This procedure involves removal of existing breast tissue by various techniques to create a masculine chest.

Which Top Surgery Technique Is Right For Me?

Top Surgery is a type of mastectomy, that is, removal of breast tissue. The type of incision and approach for removing the breast tissue that you are a candidate for will be discussed with you at your consultation. Although you may want one specific technique over another, factors such as how much breast tissue you currently have, how much excess skin you have, the shape of the breasts, your weight, and your age may all play a role in which procedure you will give the best outcome for you. Different incision techniques such as keyhole, periareolar, and double incision procedures all lead to different scar patterns. Dr. Fisher will help you understand which technique is most appropriate for you.

How Much Recovery Will I Need After FTM Top Surgery?

At your consultation, Dr. Fisher will also discuss the requirements for surgery, your aftercare, and recovery expectations. In general, here’s what you can expect:

Patients will need care at home and supervision for a few days after surgery. Care is generally done by a family member, close friend, or intimate partner. A compression garment will be worn for several weeks after surgery. Comfort is initially managed with prescription pain medication and progresses to over-the-counter medication within the first week after surgery. The ability to shower after surgery depends on the technique used. In some cases, drain tubes are placed, and will stay in place for 1-2 weeks. 

While walking is encouraged after surgery, it is important to limit activities requiring upper body motion. In most cases, light physical activity can be resumed 1 week after surgery, and vigorous activity must be avoided for at least 1 month after surgery. Most people are excited to see that within 3 weeks after surgery, your result will start to be clear.
