MTF top surgery refers to a breast-augmentation surgery performed as part of gender-confirmation surgery. It is a solution for non-binary transgender people or transwomen to achieve a more feminine-looking appearance. It is performed by Mr. Inglefield, a skilled plastic surgeon with special training in gender-confirmation surgeries.

Breast augmentation can happen any time during the transition for male to female. It is sometimes combined with other transition surgeries like body feminisation and facial feminisation.

MTF Top Surgery: Technique

Many individuals desire larger breasts to enhance the feminine contours of their breasts and to help alleviate gender dysphoria. Hormone therapy is a typical part of changing the body structure, and it encourages breast growth to some extent.

Breast implants further accentuate these results. Sometimes, breast implants are the only solution if hormone therapy doesn’t result in breast development.

Those who are already in the process of transitioning will surely know what breast augmentation is. By inserting breast implants, the size of the breasts can be changed to further emphasize gender expression.

If the individual does not have enough skin tissue, breast-augmentation surgery is broken into two stages, with tissue expanders placed in the first stage.

These devices are placed where the implants will go and are then gradually filled over the course of several appointments. This slowly stretches the tissues of the chest to accommodate the breast implants, which are placed in stage 2.

Choosing the Right Breast Implants

Breast implants come in a variety of shapes based on projection and width. Choosing breast implants requires the individual to concentrate on their overall physique so that the breasts look natural and proportional.

The individual has an option to choose from three different types of implants:

• Saline implants: Saline implants are silicone shells filled with a sterile saline solution. Saline implants typically require a smaller incision than silicone implants and are less expensive, but they also carry a greater risk of rippling, particularly around the outer edges of the implant.
• Silicone implants: Silicone implants are silicone shells filled with silicone gel. These implants are firmer and have a smoother surface. They provide a very natural look and feel.
• B-Lite implants: These cutting-edge lightweight implants are filled with silicone gel that contains borosilicate microspheres. These microspheres make it so the implants can be lighter than traditional breast implants, helping to avoid potential issues like strain and back pain.

The individual looking for MTF top surgery can try out breast implant sizers in Mr. Inglefield’s clinic. Mr. Inglefield will make appropriate recommendations for breast implant type and size based on the individual frame and aesthetic goals. Breast implants may require a replacement after around 10 years.
