The presentation will discuss the following: • Understanding FTM Top Surgery • The Medical Process Explained • The Emotional Journey • The Recovery and Aftercare • Aesthetic Aspects of FTM Top Surgery • FTM Top Surgery at Top Surgery Art

  3. Understanding FTM Top Surgery • Female-to-Male(FTM) Top Surgery, is a gender-confirming surgical procedure that involves the removal of the female breasts (also known as ‘mastectomy’) and shaping of a masculinized chest, often sought by transgender men binary as well as the non-binary individuals assigned female at birth who wish to align their physical appearance with their gender identity. • The intention behind FTM top surgery isn’t purely aesthetic. It’s about affirming one’s identity and living a life that aligns with who they indeed are. The surgery can significantly enhance the individual’s psychological well-being and quality of life, reduce or eliminate gender dysphoria, and improve body image and self-esteem. • Before committing, it’s crucial to understand what it entails, including its risks, benefits, and the commitment required for a successful recovery.

  4. The Medical Process Explained FTM Top Surgery primarily involves Double Incision Mastectomy and Keyhole Top Surgery. Double Incision Mastectomy involves • making two horizontal incisions along the chest’s contour, • removing breast tissue, and • repositioning and resizing  the nipples to the typical masculine position. This is typically suitable for individuals with larger breasts or excess skin. Keyhole Top Surgery involves • making a small incision along the lower edge of the areola • the breast tissue is removed This technique suits individuals with smaller breasts and good skin elasticity, leaving minimal scarring.

  5. The Emotional Journey • The journey to FTM Top Surgery is physical and deeply emotional. It often starts with self-realization and acceptance of one’s gender identity. Acknowledging one’s gender dysphoria and deciding to undergo a life-changing surgery is a significant step. • For many, the path to surgery is marked by anticipation, impatience, fear, and excitement. A mix of these emotions leads up to the procedure, but once the decision is made, it often brings a sense of relief and hope. • The post-surgery period, too, can be an emotional roller coaster. The joy of seeing a chest that aligns with one’s gender identity may be mixed with the temporary discomfort from the healing process. Remember, having these feelings is okay, and it’s essential to have a support system in place – trusted friends, family, or support groups. • As with any surgical process, patience is vital. The top surgery results will gradually refine and improve over several months, leading to the final result that reflects the person’s true self.

  6. The Recovery and Aftercare • The recovery process after FTM Top Surgery is as crucial as the surgery. Proper care post-surgery ensures not only a smooth recovery but also optimum results. • Post-surgery, patients usually spend a few hours in the recovery room under medical supervision before discharge. Initial healing typically occurs within 2-3 weeks, while complete recovery can take several weeks to months. • During the recovery period, patients may be advised to wear a medical compression vest to support the healing tissues and reduce swelling. Regular follow-ups to monitor the healing progress and address any complications if they arise. • Importantly, taking care of mental health is crucial during recovery. The emotional adjustment to the new body shape can take time, and psychological support can significantly help during this period.
