I don’t see many trans art showing keyhole/peri scars, so I decided to draw my own body and scars :•)

i’ve been treated so nicely by your art i get surprised when i see other people draw apollo and he doesn’t have his phallo scars. where is it why does he have skin

happy TDOV! I'm now making it mandatory for all AA fans to draw apollo with phallo scars

#I kid I kid #though speaking sincerely I am delighted when I see things other than the classic dual incision top surgery scars #other surgeries exist too! #even just for top surgery I'm always happy when I see peri or tattoos or keloid scars or even scars that have more or less faded entirely #let's get some variety out there people! #as well as love for phallo which is so wildly neglected that I basically never see it #and that's a real shame

top surgery planning / blunt personal venting

*- -*

I think I've decided I'm gonna work to find a surgeon that's willing to do periareolar on a b-cup!

Have been feeling odd and off about the double incision results I've seen lately. They often look great, but when I picture embodying it, I dont feel quite right. I've worked out it's not the scars that bother me, it's the nipples. They look, because I suppose they are, ornamental. Lobbed off and pasted back on.. I don't like that for my body, I don't want to be severed from my nipples.. That makes me tremendously uncomfortable.

I have always felt incredibly awkward and unhappy with my tits but only because they're big and floppy (big for male tits at least. Kinda masculine/man tit looking but way oversized for even male Gynecomastia) Not because of the sensation or general vibe of having a bit of something there.

I can't say I wholey feel alienated from my chest, just greatly unhappy with the size of it. The extremeness.

I don't want a totally lean, totally unfamiliar chest with (most likely numb) little nubby thumbtack nipples. That doesn't feel right, it just feels like it solves a problem. The idea of my chest and nipples as I know them but simply drawn inwards, seems so RIGHT.

They'd maybe be a little puckered and low for a typical male chest - honestly most results I've seen, even if they don't meet the cis or trans male beauty standard - they still look typically male. And I think for my body type and lifestyle I could bulk out my pecs okay to get everything looking firmer anyway.

I think I'm set! Which is a big call because my size would be for sure considered only borderline eligible by most surgeon's standards. So I might end up having to travel because I've been yet to find any experienced surgeons here in Australia..

But I'm gonna chase someone with the right skills and experience because fuck it, it's my one and only body and if I'm gonna front up the bravery and money to change it, I'm not taking a compromise for convention's sake.

SIDENOTE I'm so happy for the people who feel elated and at ease with their DI results! It doesn't ick me on others, just the idea of it on me 🙏

#Also I know there's T-anchor / lollypop which will be my next considerations if my self estimate is off and I really am too big for peri #top surgery #transmasc #ftm

TW; mention of shots and medical stuff!

I got a tetanus shot, blood work done to see if I have celiac disease and the most important poke of today… I’m back on testosterone! A small dose but still!

So I bought myself a little treat to celebrate! A headset and gluten free Oreos~ time to get zaza’d and play Xbox!

Also my Dr was like “do you want a referral letter now?” And I was like “for…?” And she went “for top surgery.” So I’m already getting the ball rolling! I can no longer bind because of doing so for 4 years (my lungs can’t handle it lol oops) so the thought of finally being able to get peri top surgery done is… it makes me cry lol. Maybe it’ll be done before my 29th birthday this year?!

Being disabled has made this take a lot longer but I’m happy to say the wait has paid off- and! My nurse said I look like a fox so I’m a happy boy!

periareolar scar reducing revision surgery experiences?

Hey, I'm looking for advice/experiences around a peri-areolar revision surgery.

I had periareolar 5 years ago or so. The shape and position is perfect (shoutout to Kneeshaw in the UK) but the areolas and the scars around them have stretched significantly. I don't have the confidence to go shirtless which was something I'd really hoped for from surgery. :(

I had a consult with Brendan Wooler, very jolly guy at the same hospital. He said they often get the complaint about scars/areolas stretching out over time post-peri, and they will perform revision surgeries 'at least a couple of times' in hopes of getting the desired look. I moved countries since then though, so I thought I'd try and find a surgeon here.

The surgeon here (van der Sluis) seems legit and sensible, super friendly, but he said 'I'm a lot less optimistic about the results than Wooler', and that 18 of the 20 times he's performed this sort of revision, the scars stretch back out. 'No matter if you keep the T-rex arms all the time, no matter if you stick to the exact instructions'. He suggested just getting the shape of them fixed with a smaller surgery under local anaesthetic, and getting the scars medically tattooed to camouflage them.

At the time I agreed, but I am now wondering if I should still give those odds a shot since I have no body confidence right now at all, and scar tattooing has to be repeated every few years. I would obviously prefer local anaesthetic and a smaller surgery (although I'm sure it won't hurt as much as the real deal did), but I don't want to regret that I would never have known whether a revision would have worked out perfectly. I am also a little concerned that the areola position could change, because like I said I am happy with that aspect of it.

For my first surgery, I was told from day one to perform regular physio stretches that were much too drastic (touching your hand to your back over your shoulder!?) which I blindly obeyed. One areola got infected and lost some skin. There was no scar tape or silicone strips either, which the new surgeon recommends. I think I had pretty bad conditions for healing the first time, and wonder if it's worth a shot under these better circumstances.

My question is: have you had a scar-reducing/areolar-reducing revision to peri? Or have you heard about any success rates for it? I want to know whose odds to trust - whether Wooler was too positive or van der Sluis is overly pessimistic. Thanks in advance!

keyhole vs peri vs double incision…. decisions decisions

#top surgery #peri #keyhole #double incision #mastectomy #mine

[hjartasalt]

if you don't mind me asking, what kind of top surgery did you get? (DI, Peri/Keyhole, etc.)

I don't mind at all! It's actually pretty interesting since I've never met anyone who got the same type of surgery as I did

So when I was being evaluated for surgery my surgeon recommended DI but told me that I did also qualify for Peri since my chest was rather small but he also warned me that depending on the elasticity of my skin I might need a revision surgery to remove excess skin. While I wasn't super keen on DI at first due to the large scars the pros did outweigh the cons so I decided to go with that option instead. One fear I had regarding the operation though was potential necrosis if the nipple graft didn't take and I raised this concern with my surgeon. Keeping this in mind he offered an alternative way of doing the surgery so I actually got a combination of DI and Keyhole! My recovery went smoothly and without any complications or need for revision :)

(my nipples did hurt like a bitch when I woke up though haha)

I’m kinda tired of the “trans men have it easier” bit.

Especially as a feminine trans man. Even with years of hrt and top surgery there are times I’m seen as a woman for simply how I express myself. Testosterone is not some magical passing hormone that so many people make it out to be. And if anything, my chest makes MORE PEOPLE stare at me. Even though I had peri top surgery, my scars are very unique and that makes people stare.

Hi, I was just curious how you chose the type of top surgery you got, like your scar shape and such, and if you still remember the pros and cons of each

in terms of the general type of surgery, getting double incision wasn't really a choice – the size of my chest would've disqualified me from most of the other options even if i'd wanted them. as far as i'm aware, the only other techniques that i would've been able to get at my size (t-anchor and fishmouth are the two my surgeon does that come to mind) wouldn't make sense because the main reason someone would pick them over double incision is just to keep nipple sensation, which didn't matter for me. that being said, i think i still might've gone with double incision even if i did qualify for something like peri or keyhole; i don't mind visible scarring and, from what i've seen of other people's results, i like the control that double incision gives the surgeon over the look of the chest overall.

as far as why i decided not to keep my nipples, i laid out my whole thought process in this ask a while back. the tl;dr is this: sensation in my nipples has always been a bad sensory thing for me, i didn't want to deal with the extra healing process of nipple grafts, i can be very picky about things on my body being asymmetrical and knew that nipple grafts aren't guaranteed to heal perfectly symmetrically, going without grafts was cheaper, i liked the idea of having a chest that's visibly different from a cis man's chest, and when i imagined my post-op body i naturally imagined it without nipples. so as you can probably tell, it was a pretty cut-and-dry decision for me, given how many reasons i had to go nipless.

and a few things went into the shape of my scars. the fact that they meet in the middle and go so far into my armpits was just necessary – i had a big chest before, and i specifically had a wide chest that met in the middle and had a lot of tissue in the sides, so my surgeon had to make my incisions wider in order to get all of the tissue out and avoid leaving any extra skin on the ends of the incisions. other than that, i told her during my pre-op that my ideal scars would be mostly straight and not too low on my chest. those preferences are purely aesthetic; i wanted straighter scars because i felt like scars that were too curved would read as boob-shaped in my dysphoria brain, which i didn't want to deal with, and i wanted to keep the scars on the higher side because without the nipples there, i felt like the scars sitting too low would make my chest look weirdly blank.

so those were my reasons – double incision with long connected scars out of necessity, higher and straighter scars because i liked how they looked the best, and no nipples because that just made sense for me on every level. i can't really make a pros and cons list for you because things that were pros for me might be cons for you and vice versa; it's all super personal. but hopefully, hearing about how i thought it through still helps you!

Top Surgery Scars by MNLVLZ

Hello All!!

My name is Emanuel and I'm here to post my very first CC online.

Here I bring you 6 different top surgery scars in 5 different swatches. The procedures I chose are "Double Incision, Inverted T, Fishmouth, Peri-Aerolar, Keyhole and Minor Scar" Both double incision and Inverted T have 2 versions.

Swatches: Light, Medium, Dark and Deep were created to work with as many skin tones possible, as seen in the image above. I also added a 5th swatch that aims to match the already existing scars the game maxis has given us.  

I would like to clarify that I'm not a trans man myself, I'm a queer individual. So I don't know the experience of going through top surgery, I tried my best to do the proper research by reading articles written by clinics who perform top surgery and reading/watching blogs from transmen who have gone through with the procedure. If you believe I did a disservice please don't hesitate to let me know so I can fix it with your feedback or take it down if needed.
