Female to Male Surgical Options:

1. Breasts

Female to male transgender patients need reductive surgery to create a male chest. The breast tissue is removed behind the nipple to create a flatter appearing chest. The surgical approach used is dependent upon the breast size, the amount of skin and position of the nipples. The nipples are usually reduced, made into a more elliptical pattern, and often repositioned more superiorly. Dr. Chen will discuss with you all surgical options so you can make an informed decision regarding your transition.

2. Facial implants

The two most commonly used implants to create a more masculine appearance are chin and mandible (jawline) implants. Dr. Chen will guide you during your consultation to determine the best shape and size to achieve your desired results. Facial fillers or fat grafting can also be used to help create a masculine appearance.

Dr. Chen’s goal is to make your transition as comfortable and easy as possible. There are several facial and body surgeries that can help enhance your transgender surgery results. During your consultation, you will discuss the options that best fit your goals, comfort, and anatomy.
