What is a transgender breast surgery?

Transgender breast surgery is a transformative procedure performed by skilled plastic surgeons who specialize in transgender healthcare. It involves reshaping the chest to create a more feminine or masculine appearance, depending on your gender identity and goals. The surgery can include breast augmentation to increase breast size, breast reduction to decrease breast size, or a combination of both.

The surgical process

During your initial consultation, the plastic surgeon will discuss your medical history, health, and desired outcome. They will help determine the most suitable approach for your needs, whether it involves breast augmentation, breast reduction, or a combination of both procedures. The surgeon will explain the details of the surgery, including the expected results, potential risks, and necessary aftercare. They will also provide guidance on implant types, placement techniques, and size selection. Throughout the decision-making process, Dental Studio Antalya will provide support and guidance to ensure your comfort and satisfaction.

The entire treatment duration for transgender breast surgery is approximately 15 days. If you are taking blood-thinning medication, it’s important to discontinue its use at least one week before the surgery. Smoking should be stopped for at least 4 weeks before and after the procedure to promote optimal healing.

On the day of the surgery, the plastic surgeon will mark the incision sites on your chest. For breast augmentation, implants will be placed through carefully planned incisions. In the case of breast reduction, excess breast tissue will be removed, and the remaining tissue will be reshaped to achieve a desired size and contour. The surgery is performed under anesthesia and typically takes around 1 to 3 hours, depending on the complexity of the procedure.

Post-treatment care

Following transgender breast surgery, you will need to stay in the clinic for a period of time to ensure close monitoring by medical professionals, including nurses, surgeons, and anesthesiologists. If necessary, drains may be placed to remove excess fluid from the surgical site. These drains are typically removed within 24 to 48 hours. Once the surgeon and medical team determine it is appropriate, you will be allowed to leave the clinic. Dental Studio Antalya will arrange transportation to your accommodation.

In the initial days of recovery, you may experience discomfort, bruising, and swelling in the treated areas. These symptoms gradually subside within 2 to 6 weeks. Pain medication and medication to minimize swelling will be provided to ensure your comfort. Rest is essential during the first week, and pressure should be avoided on the chest area.

During the initial weeks of recovery, you will be instructed to wear a supportive bra or compression garment to provide optimal support and promote proper healing. The duration of wearing these garments will be determined by your surgeon. Physical activities should be avoided for the first few weeks to allow for proper healing.

Around 2 weeks after the surgery, the stitches will be removed. After 3 weeks, you can gradually resume light activities, and approximately 6 weeks post-surgery, you can fully engage in your regular activities.

The results

In the first few months after transgender breast surgery, the incision scars may appear red or fiery in color. However, over time, they will fade and become less visible. It’s important to protect the scars from sun exposure during the first year and use a high-factor sunscreen afterward. Initially, your nipple sensation may be altered, but normal sensation typically returns. The final results become more apparent after about 3 months, and the outcome is considered permanent.

Risks and complications

As with any surgery, transgender breast procedures carry general risks, including allergic reactions, poor wound healing, bleeding, or, despite sterile conditions, infections. However, these complications are rare. There is a very small risk of thrombosis or anesthesia-related risks. In some cases, the naturally forming capsule around breast implants can contract excessively, requiring corrective measures. The implants may need to be replaced if the outer layer wrinkles or tears. Breast asymmetry or permanent numbness are rare risks associated with the procedure.

At Dental Studio Antalya, your safety and satisfaction are of utmost importance. Our experienced surgeons and medical staff will guide you through every step of the process, ensuring the best possible results for your transgender breast surgery.
