What To Expect From FTM Top Surgery
Consultation
Your first appointment with our team will be an initial consultation. This is when you talk with one of our experienced surgeons about your concerns and what you would like to change about your appearance. Once they understand your goals, they can explain your options for surgery and help create a procedure that is right for your needs.
Anesthesia
For FTM top surgery in Jacksonville, we use a general anesthetic to keep you comfortable during your procedure. Your surgeon will explain the details of your procedure, including what techniques they plan on using, and give you the opportunity to ask any questions. Once you feel confident in your plan, they help you schedule your surgery.
Procedure
There are multiple techniques that your surgeon can use for FTM top surgery, but all techniques are meant to remove breast tissue and re-contour the muscles to appear more masculine. For larger-breasted patients, your surgeon will also remove any excess skin and possibly resize and reposition the nipples for a more natural-looking chest.
Recovery
Once you are out of surgery, you will wear a compression vest for 3 to 4 weeks to reduce swelling and bruising. Your doctor will review your post-care instructions with you again before helping you schedule your follow-up appointment. Your surgeon will also give you recommendations to help minimize the visible scarring.

FTM Top Surgery FAQs
Everyone’s transition is going to look different. While HRT is not a requirement for FTM top surgery in Jacksonville, it can help augment your results for a more masculine appearance. We suggest talking with your surgeon and PCP before beginning HRT.
There is no clear answer on whether or not FTM top surgery reduces or eliminates the risk of breast cancer. While less breast tissue means a lower chance of cancer cells in the breast tissue, the higher levels of estrogen from hormone replacement therapy (HRT) typically increase the risk of breast cancer. You should continue to perform regular self-breast examinations and have your doctor perform a chest exam annually to check for abnormalities.
