This surgical technique, involving an incision around the nipple, allows for the removal of excess breast tissue and the reshaping of the chest to create a more masculine contour. Individuals seeking a flatter chest with minimal scarring often select this approach.
Achieving a desired chest appearance can significantly impact an individual’s self-esteem, body image, and gender affirmation. This procedure offers a less invasive option compared to other methods, potentially leading to reduced recovery time and smaller, less noticeable scars. The development and refinement of this technique have provided a valuable option for individuals seeking gender-affirming care.
