MTF Top Surgery in Atlanta

Top surgery, also known as gender affirming surgery, or in this case, chest feminization, is ideal for patients who are transitioning from male-to-female. For those ready to transition, having a body that does not align with who you are can be very psychologically damaging.

It causes low confidence and self-esteem, often negatively affecting your social life. Likewise, you may avoid regular physical activities or feel discomfort when wearing certain clothes. This is called gender dysphoria.

An MTF top surgery in Atlanta can help you achieve comfort and self-assurance in your body. For more information about this treatment, connect with our team of cosmetic breast surgeons today.

What Is MTF Top Surgery?

Male-to-female top surgery can help patients who are transgender or non-binary achieve gender affirmation by feminizing the chest area. Our Board-certified plastic surgeons will augment the breast tissue with volume while repositioning the nipples for a more feminine appearance that aligns with your desires.

In order to help you achieve your ideal transformation, we will work closely with you to design the best and safest surgical strategy. This will help you attain peace, wellness, and satisfaction with your body and overall appearance.

Do I Need An MTF Top Surgery?

MTF top surgery is not for everyone, but it can be ideal for our patients who experience the following due to their physical body image:

  • Gender dysphoria
  • Discomfort wearing certain clothes
  • Discomfort in social and romantic situations
  • Feelings of shame, low self-confidence, and low self-esteem
  • Inability to participate in social situations and various activities

If you relate to these issues, schedule a consultation with our team today. We can help you decide if MTF top surgery is right for you.

Your MTF Top Surgery Procedure

The procedure will be customized for each patient’s unique needs but generally involves augmenting the breasts with implants. This includes the surgical implantation of FDA-approved saline or silicone implants. During your initial consultation, we can help you decide on the shape and size of your breast implants to achieve your ideal look.

Our medical team will do our best to ensure that incisions are carefully concealed and scarring is minimal. This surgery generally takes a few hours, but you will need to take an entire day off for the procedure and allow plenty of time for recovery. The procedure is performed under general anesthesia to ensure your comfort.

Post-Procedure Recovery and Downtime

Before your surgery, our clinical team will provide you with a list of directions that you should follow to ensure a smooth and pleasant recovery. If you abide by these instructions, you can expect to achieve a positive surgical outcome and recovery.

Following your procedure, you cannot drive due to the anesthesia, so you must arrange a ride home from the surgery center with a trusted friend or family member.

Wear a Surgical Bra

In order to keep your breasts in place and to aid the healing process, you will be required to wear a surgical bra. This will support your breasts, minimize swelling and bruising, and accelerate your recovery.

Avoid Overexertion

For the first few weeks following your MTF top surgery treatment, our expert Atlanta medical team recommends that you steer clear of vigorous exercise or movement. During this time, avoid lifting your arms or working out your chest muscles.

Caring For Your Gender Confirmation Results Post-Surgery

To enjoy your results for as long as possible, you must care for your body with a healthy diet and lifestyle. Our team will schedule follow-up appointments with you at one of our plastic surgery centers to monitor your progress as you recover from your MTF top surgery.

Our medical team cares about the success of not only the surgeries we perform, but also the patients who put their trust in us. We understand that transitioning is a sensitive process, and we will do our best to treat our patients with their health, wellness, and safety at the forefront, all while providing world-class medical service.
