Chest Feminization: Breast augmentation with implants or your own fat, for trans women

How it works

In trans women the breast base is usually wider and the gland smaller, so the choice of implant, the plane (submuscular or dual) and the position of the folds are planned differently than in a conventional augmentation. The aim is a natural result in proportion with the rest of the body.

Dr. Yolotzin is a clinical partner of CETRANS and supports the process with respect for your name and your pronouns, in coordination with endocrinology when applicable.

Is it for me?

  • Trans women with at least 12 months of hormone therapy, or as determined in consultation.
  • Non-binary people seeking a feminine chest.
  • Anyone who wants a team with specific experience and dignified care.

What you should know

How it's done, how to care for it and what to expect.

General information so you arrive at your consultation with the right questions. Your plan is defined at your consultation.

Technique

  • Measurement of the chest base and sizer simulation.
  • Incision in the inframammary fold or around the areola; dual plane in most cases.
  • Repositioning of the fold when the base is very wide.

Aftercare

  • Post-surgical bra day and night for 4 to 6 weeks.
  • No lifting heavy objects or chest exercise during the first month.
  • Periodic ultrasound to monitor the implants.

Results and how long they last

The implants take their position between the second and third month; final result at 6 months.

Risks and how we reduce them

Capsular contracture, rupture, asymmetry and changes in sensation. They are explained with actual percentages and reduced with clean technique and follow-up.
