๐น FTM Top Surgery Explained: Incision Methods & Expert Team at THE Plastic Surgery
For many transgender men and non-binary individuals, top surgery is a deeply personal step in aligning their body with their identity.
At THE Plastic Surgery Clinic, we specialize in chest masculinization procedures with a focus on safety, aesthetic results, and
individualized care.
Our team, led by Dr. Ock Jae Jin and Dr. Kim Jae Woo, are recognized experts in breast surgery,
including reduction, reconstruction, and gynecomastia.
✂️ What Are the Main Incision Options?
Every body is different, and so is every surgical plan. The incision method depends on breast size, skin elasticity, and chest shape. Here’s a breakdown of the two most commonly used techniques for FTM top surgery:
๐ธ 1. The Periareolar Incision Method (์ ๋ฅ์ ๊ฐ)
This technique is ideal for:
Patients with A cup or small B cup
Minimal skin excess and good elasticity
How it works:
The incision is made around the areola, usually in a semicircle on the lower edge.
Tissue under the chest is removed.
This method minimizes visible scarring, making it a good option for those seeking a
more subtle result.
๐ฉบ It’s similar to gynecomastia surgery, often used in cisgender male chest contouring.
๐น 2. The Double Incision Method (์ด์ค์ ๊ฐ)
Best for:
Larger breasts with significant glandular tissue
Patients with B cup or larger and moderate to severe sagging
Procedure Highlights:
A horizontal incision is made along the bottom of the chest (inframammary fold).
Excess skin and tissue are removed.
The nipple and areola are repositioned to a higher and more masculine location.
This method provides the most effective contouring for a flat, masculine chest appearance.
๐งพ Note: Scar length can vary depending on your breast size and skin laxity.
