Top Surgery Anatomy // What Procedure is Best For Your Anatomy?

Описание: This video is going to help you figure out which top surgery procedure is best for your anatomy. How do you choose a top surgery procedure? Should you choose a procedure involving a larger scar such as the double incision approach OR a minimal scar approach like the periareolar and keyhole approach? I'm going to show you how you can measure your own chest and use these measurements as guidelines to determine what procedure would most effectively remove the breast tissue on your chest wall. All you need is a tape measure, a marker and a mirror to do these measurements! I will also be reviewing the ideal chest wall anatomy for the double incision approach, the periareolar approach and the keyhole approach and the three physical characteristics I look for in my patients when deciding which procedure to choose.

There are two broad categories of surgical approaches to gender affirming top surgery, approaches that involve some kind of skin excision (such as the double incision approach) and those that involve minimal scarring (the periareolar and keyhole approach). While ideal scarring is never a guarantee, usually scars after periareolar and keyhole approach top surgery are extremely well hidden within the border of the areola and surrounding chest wall skin. Top surgery scar care is an important part of the postoperative care. Other important adjuncts are using drains to remove fluid and prevent complications that could develop as a result of fluid buildup, and compression therapy to prevent swelling and to keep the surgical skin flaps flat against the chest wall. In this video, you will see what the drains look like and what it is like to have drains removed. You will see the compression wrap being removed at the first postoperative visit and what to expect regarding the amount of swelling at the first few post op visits.
