What is Male to Female Top Surgery?
Male-to-female top surgery, also called transfeminine top surgery, is performed to create a more feminine appearance to the chest. At Charlottesville Plastic Surgery, we bring quality healthcare to trans individuals with care and support. Dr. Willis is dedicated to great patient experiences in a comfortable and safe environment where you can trust the highest level of care from a board-certified plastic surgeon.
Who is a Candidate?
Individuals who are of age to make consent, have been diagnosed with persistent gender dysphoria, and are ready to take the next step in their gender transition can often benefit from this procedure. It is important to understand that gender confirmation surgery should be done for yourself. Surgery is a major decision and should not be done to fit another person’s desires. For more information regarding candidacy, contact our office today to schedule a consultation appointment.
The Male-to-Female Top Surgery Procedure
Male-to-female top surgery is typically performed under general anesthesia in our accredited surgical center. This is a reconstructive breast surgery that can be performed with breast implants or a FLAP reconstruction that builds a breast mound from the patient’s own skin, fat, and muscle. These tissues are taken from the back and abdomen. No matter which surgical technique you decide upon, Dr. Willis will make sure your results are customized to your individual cosmetic goals so that you can achieve your ideal look.

After your procedure, bandages or gauze may be placed on your surgical site. You may need to wear a support bra to minimize swelling and support your new chest contours. Dr. Willis will provide post-surgical instructions on how to care for your healing incisions, how long to take prescription medications, specific concerns to be aware of, and more. Healing will take several weeks, and as swelling decreases results will become more noticeable.
