Top Surgery: An Important Step To Boost Self-Confidence

The size of their breasts has a big impact on daily life and confidence for transmen. Thus, transmen frequently have mastectomy in order to get a more masculine breast appearance. The sensation remains unchanged despite the reduction of the breasts. Furthermore, the areolas and nipples may be reshaped and readjusted to their proper size and shape.

In a female-to-male breast reduction, the extra breast tissue and skin are removed to flatten the breasts, and then the areola and nipple are reshaped to the appropriate sizes. This operation may lessen a sensation in the nipple area, depending on the technique used. 

Reasons You Should Get a Top Surgery

The following are the primary causes of Top Surgery: 

• Gender conformity: It can be uncomfortable and disconnected from your inner feelings to have huge, curvaceous breasts. A breast reduction procedure can ease this discomfort and increase your self-confidence. 
• Convenience in daily life: Having a breast reduction can ease the hassle of getting dressed and daily life, as it eliminates the need for a corset. 
• Reduced risk of health problems: Large breasts can lead to many health issues, such as neck and back pain. These other health problems can be decreased with a breast reduction procedure. 

Surgical Procedures

Breast reduction surgery is a major surgical procedure that involves several steps, as follows:

1. Medical consultation: To determine the best operation for you and to evaluate your level of physical and mental preparedness, you must speak with a professional prior to the procedure. 
2. Pre-operative preparation: You must adhere to all of your doctor’s recommendations, including stop taking certain medications, smoking, and drinking alcohol.
3. Surgical procedure: This procedure takes about 2-4 hours. This procedure involves cutting and reshaping the breast tissue to make it appear flatter.
4. Recovery: Following surgery, you will need to spend one to two days in the hospital and two to four weeks recovering at home.

Post-operative outcomes

Following the breast reduction, you will be able to live a more comfortable life and feel more confident about your appearance. However, the results of surgery may vary from person to person and some complications like scarring, bruising, and numbness in the breast area are possible.

Pre-operative preparation 

• You should take a week or so off from work.
• Do not eat or drink for 8 hours before surgery.
• Do not take any vitamin supplements for a month before surgery.
• Do not smoke for a month before and after surgery.
• Do not drink alcohol for a week before and after surgery.
• Do not wear makeup on the day of surgery and do not use long-lasting cosmetic products.
• Before the surgery appointment, you should let the doctor know if you take medicine, have a history of drug allergies, or have a chronic illness. 

Post-operative self-care

• You will experience numbness in the surgical site, but it will disappear naturally and return to normal in about 6 months.
• Keep the incision dry at all times until the stitches are removed.
• To lessen swelling, you should you sleep on your back and elevate your body. Avoid sleeping on your stomach or on your side. 
• For the first three months following surgery, you should wear a compression garment at all times to keep your breasts in their natural shape and to lessen swelling. 
• After surgery, refrain from taking a bath or swimming for one month.
• After surgery, refrain from hard exercise and motions that put pressure on the wound for a month.
