#keyhole breast surgery

[sorin-sunchild]

"But we've seen this character topless and he doesn't have top surgery scars so he can't be trans!"

Keyhole surgery. Next.

[fibrofeline]

Did you know there’s more than one type of top surgery for transmasculine individuals? Depending on the surgery you get, your scars may not look like what you commonly see on photos of trans guys and fan art. Introducing the most unheard of variety, keyhole or periareolar!

This surgery is uncommon because you must have very little breast tissue to get it. Most surgeons will only operate on A cups, although some include B cups. The scarring for this is extremely minimal and sometimes unnoticeable!

My goal with this post is to show the varieties of transmascs out there, and how the most commonly shown type of surgery is not the only one available. There’s no “default” to show a trans man after surgery just like there’s no one type of natural trans body before surgery. 💖🤍💙

Also, because I know my younger self would do this: don’t compare yourself to others! My photos have 8 years of post-op healing. Your own journey is what makes you unique.

The Best News of Last Week

1. A branch of the flu family tree has died and won't be included in future US vaccines

A type of flu virus that used to sicken people every year hasn't been spotted anywhere on Earth since March 2020. As such, experts have advised that the apparently extinct viruses be removed from next year's flu vaccines.

The now-extinct viruses were a branch of the influenza B family tree known as the Yamagata lineage. Scientists first reported the apparent disappearance of Yamagata viruses in 2021.

2. Hospitals must obtain written consent for pelvic and similar exams, the federal government says

Hospitals must obtain written informed consent from patients before subjecting them to pelvic exams and exams of other sensitive areas — especially if an exam will be done while the patient is unconscious, the federal government said Monday.

New guidance from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services now requires consent for breast, pelvic, prostate and rectal exams for “educational and training purposes” performed by medical students, nurse practitioners or physician assistants.

3. Germany approves new law that will allow adults to carry up to 25 grams of cannabis for their own consumption and store up to 50 grams at home.

Germany's upper house, the Bundesrat, cleared the way to partially legalize cannabis on Friday. Adults aged 18 and over will be allowed to carry up to 25 grams of cannabis for their own consumption.

4. Tick-killing pill shows promising results in human trial | Should it pan out, the pill would be a new weapon against Lyme disease.

Tarsus Pharmaceuticals is developing a pill for humans that could provide protection against the tick-borne disease for several weeks at a time. In February, the Irvine, California–based biotech company announced results from a small, early-stage trial showing that 24 hours after taking the drug, it can kill ticks on people, with the effects lasting for up to 30 days.

5. Thailand moves to legalise same-sex marriage

Thailand has taken a historic step closer to marriage equality after the lower house passed a bill giving legal recognition to same-sex marriage.

It still needs approval from the Senate and royal endorsement to become law but it is widely expected to happen by the end of 2024, making Thailand the only South East Asian country to recognise same-sex unions.

6. French Revolution: Cyclists Now Outnumber Motorists In Paris

Official measurements have found that Paris is rapidly becoming a city of transportation cyclists. In the suburbs, where public transit is less dense, transport by car was found to be the main form of mobility. But for journeys from the outskirts of Paris to the center, the number of cyclists now far exceeds the number of motorists, a huge change from just five years ago.

7. 'Miracle' operation reverses blindness in three-year-old girl giving her 'promising' future

A three year old with a genetic condition that causes blindness is doing incredibly well after unique pioneering operation to restore her sight.

The UK is the only country performing keyhole eye surgery to inject healthy copies of a gene into sufferers’ eyes. It is being used to reverse blindness in children born with a rare condition which means they can only distinguish between light and dark. And it has given little Khadijah Chaudhry, born with Leber congenital amaurosis-4, a chance at seeing properly again.

Some more t4t gentlebeard headcanons!

Ed's fine with giving himself his T shots but Stede has to be on the gel, not because he has any weird reactions or anything but because he cannot fuckin handle shots. Getting stabbed? That's fine, he can walk it off, he's just pissed about getting blood on his nice jacket. Giving himself an injection every other week? No! This is awful! It's terrrible! YES it's worse than the time he got stabbed, EDWARD!

After a while your T levels stabilize, for most people. Stede still has a couple days after his T gel application where he gets crazy horny, they call the person he becomes during this time "Mr. Sex"

Speaking of sex. One of the cool things about being on T is that you do tend to have a higher libido even as you get older, and Ed and Stede generally have a higher sex drive and more stamina than others their age. Yes they make this everyone else's problem

both of them had to push for the kind of top surgery they wanted. Ed was a good candidate for periareolar/keyhole top surgery (the kind where they make tiny incisions and you get to keep your nipples with no grafts), but he chose double incision (the classic two scars and nipple grafts) because he wanted to be super flat and peri/keyhole usually leaves you with some tissue. Stede was told he needed double incision but he really really wanted keyhole because he was pretty small-chested and he really wanted to have enough tissue left to be able to breast boobily in a masc sort of way. Ed's nice and flat and Stede's obsessed with wearing deep-v shirts to show off his pecs, and they're both very happy.

Overall it's probably a good thing that Stede played it safe when choosing his new name after he came out. But sometimes Ed catches him muttering "Stede Montague Bonnet" to himself in a sort of disgruntled way and he knows Stede's regretting not making his middle name "Sexfiend Coolmeister" again

Ed has a running bit where when they go out and he's wearing a mesh crop-top or something so people can see his top surgery scars, and they ask what happened that gave him those scars, he looks down at his chest and pretends to scream in horror

[abuzd]

your top surgery results are so awesome! I've never seen a top surgery heal up so well, especially since it was so recent too omg

-

hope this next part isn't too personal but how did you avoid scarring? like. I don't see any scars at all in your photos and everyone I've known irl who's gotten top surgery has visible scars, especially right after the surgery but even years down the line they still have them. not sure if surgeons in my country are just not good, if you found a surgeon whose quality is better than usual, if it has something to do with how your body was before surgery, if you found a way to make the scars fade/look unnoticeable, if you're just a magical being, or what. but you look amazing as hell ✨

hello hello thank you!!!!!!

okay so!! my surgery type is called a keyhole surgery (specifically peri-aureolar). my surgeon has his own technique but it’s essentially a peri-aureolar keyhole double mastectomy! (pulls all the breast tissue out through my nipples then sew my nipples back on)

this surgery is only possible on chest sizes that are C cup or smaller. i was an A cup :)

this is what it looks like day 7 —

i get my dressings changed tomorrow!! one of my nipples has lost sensation, could be indefinitely temporary could be permanent idk idc lol but my other nipple is sensitive as all normal lol

[dogshit-enchantment]

Every now and then I see art of sonic/sonic characters with top surgery scars the span across their chest and I think its rly funny. Not in the sense of "ugh sonic can't be trans" yes he can. But it's funny cuz there's a multitude of top surgery types; Keyhole typically results in a very small scar and is reserved for ppl with a-cup or small b-cups, T-cut is a popular method and retains the original nipple and is usually for c-dd cups. And then there's Extended Incision which is for ddd+ in where the entire breast is more or less removed, and the skin is simply pulled down to form a connection. Its what I got when I got top surgery and as a result I had to have nipple grafts put it.

So what I'm saying here is ppl keep giving sonic extended incision surgery scars, implying that pre-surgery he had bigger tits than rouge

they are like brothers. sometimes they fight for dear life and the other time they send each other funny memes at 3 am. in my head, both of them didn't have a great family dynamic, so they stayed together late at night.

miko was more easy going, so he was always worried about tiger when something happened to him. they aren't ashamed to show their love to each other.

• inyo: when they were kiddos she truly loved him in the most sisterly way you can think of. both of them are very careful when it comes to developing relations so they become very important to each other. it hurt when they had no contact with each other for years and then they become super league enemies (they never even have a talk after this).

• rasta: tiger is welcomed in rasta's house and tiger is always open to do something for rasta in return. buddies.

• cool joe: its complicated. on the one hand they are good friends and joe considers tiger as one of the most normal mates in their team, but they still have that unresolved tension that prevents them from deepening their relationship further.

Hello! I'm sorry if this is an invasive question or inappropriate but your top surgery timeline looked really good. The scars were basically invisible; did you get top surgery different from the typical surgery to make it less visible? Are there more options with this stuff?

Sincerely, a inarticulate trans guy planning on stealthing it and getting a load of surgeries.

Hey! There are several different methods for top surgery, it's important to find a surgeon who will go through those different methods and work with you to find the one that works best with your body and your needs.

Pre-op I was about an A cup, so I qualified for periareolar or "keyhole".

So the only scars I have are around the border of my areolas. Periareolar is only an option for smaller chest sizes. Some B cups, but mostly C cups and up cannot qualify for periareolar due to the higher amount of breast tissue.

Hope this is helpful! Feel free to hop in my inbox if you have any other questions.

[nightmarist]

are there top surgery options where you keep your nips? I remember reading that it costs more to keep them bc they consider it "cosmetic" -_-

Yes! But as a separate procedure it can cost more regardless if it is cosmetic and largely depends on if you have insurance and what the insurance covers.

Keeping nipples partly depends on the type of top surgery but most if not all top surgeries technically can keep the nipples give or take cost.

If you do double incision mastectomy, which is common for larger breast sizes, there is a separate procedure that is called “free graft” - it’s not that the cost is free but it’s called “free” because they completely remove the nipples (“free” them) and restitch them after the chest has been reconstructed.

Keeping nipples without grafting occurs with keyhole or other incisions more easily done with smaller breast sizes where they don’t have to move the nipples anywhere.

You can technically choose the size of your nipples, but they’re commonly quarter-sized (as in the US coin currency)

If you ask for top surgery, ask about nipple grafts or keeping your nipples.

My surgeon’s assistant has told me they will no longer be erogenous, and several trans mascs I’ve seen from the same surgeon online say there is little sensation. One said after nearly 3 years he has more normal sensation returned.

My surgeon does grafts automatically and it is considered a necessary trans affirming procedure where I live so my insurance covers both the mastectomy and the grafts. It may depend on your insurance or how much you save because sadly they do cost extra because it is a separate procedure regardless if it is cosmetic.

There may be differences in whether a surgeon, state, or insurance considers nipple grafts cosmetic or plastic so I recommend booking consultations to ask about top surgery.

Surgeons send out requests for coverage approval to insurance anyway, but if you want to know sooner if your insurance covers it you can ask your surgeon or consultant for the CPT codes. That’s the special serial numbers, so to speak, that says what procedure they’re doing. Then you call your insurance and they can plug in that code to see if they cover it and under what circumstances. Sometimes insurance covers certain surgeries under specific circumstances. For example, my insurance does not normally cover facial reconstruction except for recovering from an accident or for gender affirming care in instances of dysphoria.

You could also look into if your insurance covers trans or gender affirming care on your own but it’s sometimes hard to find out when it’s still such a taboo subject. No harm in looking!

Consultations w surgeons or their assistants are usually free. You go in person bc they measure your chest to figure out what kind of surgery they recommend. You can ask if the consultation is free before booking it if that is a concern. If you want to sound more stealth, double mastectomy is one potential term.

My official appointment documentation also refers to the procedures as “simple total mastectomy” and “full thickness free graft”

[chaifootsteps]

Hey, Chai. Is it true that when transitioning and getting top surgery, do you have to pay extra to get your nipples back on? I’ve been trying to design a character who’s transitioning overand been reading information, but I’m trying to get information from trans people and get their opinions on what I should do. Also, while doing my research I saw that is actually a lot of different types of tops scars besides the Frankenstein scar. Apologize. If this comes off as offensive, you can ignore this ask Or delete it. 

I...don't think so? I think that just comes with the basic package?

But yeah, there's different kinds of scars depending on the shape of your breast, maybe depending on the surgeon. If you're lucky and have a small chest, you can get Keyhole surgery and have almost no scar at all.

[defilerwyrm]

did u bind before top surgery? if u did, what methods did u prefer? I'm considering starting to bind when I have money to look into it, but I'm worried about using traditional binders cause of the chance of rib damage.

I basically lived in my Underworks binder, yeah. It was not a good idea, don’t do that. Traditional binders are fine as long as you get one that fits, don’t wear it too long (no more than 8 hours if you’re 18+, no more than 6 hours if you’re younger than that), and don’t perform strenuous activities like exercise in it (or if you must, wear one size up).

This article has info on how to measure yourself for proper sizing: https://www.rainbow-project.org/safe-binding-and-packing/

Also if you smoke or vape, quit as soon as you can. Not only do those things mess with your lung capacity, but nicotine seriously diminishes healing, making it a risk for any surgery. Some surgeons will actually test you for nicotine before the procedure and cancel on you if you have it in your system, so the sooner you quit, the better it’ll be looking ahead to your top surgery.

Anecdotally I’ve heard that long-term binder use can cause sagging and increase the likelihood that you’ll need double incision rather than keyhole, but that’s only a concern if your breasts are already super small to begin with, and there’s nothing wrong with DI anyway (the scars are SO much finer than what you see in art on the internet).

[mueritos]

Matteo…is it possible to get gyno or breast reduction surgery instead of the regular double incision for trans guys? For minimum scaring? Like I’m already working out hard and building chest muscle but…i just want a surgery without them ripping my nipples off.

In some cases, your insurance will approve your double mastectomy as a breast reduction; for some insurances, top surgery and breast reduction have the same or similar codes. This was my case, where they approved it as a breast reduction, but also approved the free nipple graft, which is when they cut your nipples off and graft them back on. Top surgery is not exactly the same as a breast reduction because it includes the additional masculinization of your chest and the possible grafting of your nipples. You can be eligible for keyhole, which is where they remove the mammary glands and fat from an incision around the nipple, and this usually has a higher rate of retaining sensation. However, this surgery isn't offered to every candidate, and you have to be within a specific size and have a specific amount of fat on your chest to have it. Some top surgeries also include liposuction depending on the fat in your chest, others don't use it, so this can also complicated whether you're getting a breast reduction or top surgery (one that will masculinize and sculpt your chest). If you aren't eligible for keyhole, your reality will likely be double incision, so I will tell you now that you cannot always aim to not have your nipples removed. You can, however, discuss your surgery goals with your surgeon. A good and compassionate surgeon would work with you regarding scarring, sensation, and the look/feel of your chest. Scar care is also a thing and can greatly improve the look of your scars, but the more you work out leading up to top surgery, the better foundation your surgeon has to masculinize your chest.

[officialpenisenvy]

what type of top surgery would you like to get? i have been looking into it but there's so many variants i have no idea where to begin

oh my breasts are way too big for basically anything other than a double incision like it's not even a question. tbh even if i was a candidate for peri or keyhole i would likely still get a double incision because it tends to give smoother results and because i LOVE the surgical look of the scars where you can see that something has been cut open and sewn back up. it's super hot and flashy which works great for me

[lacefuneral]

no one asked but i try to be educational about my experiences with transness when i can, and today i'm thinking abt my top surgery

(surgery description, nipples, me being kind of tmi)

ok so i had a double-incision top surgery, which is the top surgery most frequently depicted in artwork and spoken about.

when i had top surgery i didn't know (or care) about alternative surgeries. i knew about keyhole, which i did not qualify for on account of my massive tits (not a humblebrag)

i did not know about T anchor, which is a surgery that leaves the exact same scars as double incision, plus an additional vertical scar leading from the bottom of the nipple to the scar below it, forming an upside down T shape.

the primary difference, aside from scarring, is that T anchor leaves the nipples intact. the extra incision allows the surgeon to move the nipples to where they should be on the chest without cutting into the stem. meaning, the likelyhood of retaining FULL sensation is greatly increased

whereas with double incision, the nipples have to be cut off of your body, trimmed, and grafted back on in the correct place.

the result is unpredictable, and this is an instance where "your milage may very" is EXTREMELY apt. because some people have full sensation. some people have none. some people have one or both nipples fall off during the healing process (usually as a result of not properly caring for them) - it's um. it's wild. a lot of stuff going on there, with nipple grafts.

because, yeah, you can go to the best surgeon in the world, and that increases your chances of success. but then it also comes down to: how well does your body heal - and - are you putting in the work to make sure that you aren't disturbing the stitches, changing your bandages properly, keeping the incision sites clean, etc. and then the final factor is time.

i had surgery in april of 2016. my nipples survived the ordeal, although they look very different from one another. the right nipple looks like a real nipple, while the left looks more like it was formed from areola tissue. i do not know the story, nor do i want to. (the thought of my surgeon fucking up in the operating room distresses me, so i'd rather not think about it)

i had no sensation in my chest anywhere for at least a year. over time, i gradually gained sensation in different areas. for a long time, the sensation meant for my nipples were somehow misdirected to my surgical scars. i would say that at least some of that feeling remains there now. obviously ask first, but your man may enjoy having his scars rubbed when he's healed up. just a T4T tip from me 2 u.

anyway, the nipples themselves had NO sensation at all. for YEARS. and then (and sorry, this is gross) in 2021, i noticed that my left nipple appeared to have some sort of cyst or zit. now, i have OCD. and more specifically, dermatillomania. so after i dealt with the left side, i looked at the right to see if there was anything similar. i squeezed the nipple in various areas, only to realize that, as i continued, i was in PAIN.

and i was so, so ecstatic about this. because i realized that i could help the nerves wake up by stimulating the area. my right nipple now has full sensation, or something close to that.

my left, though? there's a marked difference. hardly any sensation at all, even in my attempts to "wake it up." so i'm not getting my hopes up about it, especially because it is made from different breast tissue than the right.

but yeah, while sensation isn't 100% where it was prior to surgery, my chest overall does have feeling when i touch it.

and also, despite the left nipple being, in my mind, "pretty much dead", it still reacts to temperature and touch in the way you would expect a nipple to. so it "knows" it's a nipple. and i think that's really weird? cool?

this has been jay's nipple corner

[transineurope]

Hi I just had an appointment to talk about top surgery in Aalborg, but I am concerned with retention of nipple sensation as I know the surgery they do won't allow that. Does anyone know if there are other places in Denmark that do the T-anchor type of top surgery instead of double incision with a nipple graft?

AFAIK only double incision and keyhole are performed in Denmark. During my communication with surgeons at Riget and at Odense Universitetshospital, only those two procedures were mentioned -- and once they'd measured my breasts, only double incision was offered. Here is Rigets information on top surgery.

Unfortunately I'm fairly sure that if you want another procedure, you'll have to go abroad and pay out of pocket. The public surgeons are only trained in a certain set of procedures so they tend to be slow to adopt new methods and private clinics still aren't allowed to provide gender affirming care.

It's worth noting that some people do regain a significant amount of sensation a while after double incision. Unfortunately I haven't been able to find any numbers. Personally one of my nipples has more sensation than the other, which I suspect is due to some factors during the healing process. It is true that it's not at all the same as prior to surgery, although I do think it varies a lot.

-mod siggi

EDIT: If you want to go abroad for a procedure, it might be possible to get the state to cover some of that. If that's something you want to pursue, I'd contact LGBT Danmark for advice. You can also take a look at some of these links and see if there's a useful group in your area

Keerthi for smooth and pain free treatment, she has 15+ experience in treating varied cancer complaint where she has treated further than 10,000+ cancer cases with Minimal Access( keyhole) Surgery i.e. Laparoscopic surgery. After completing her MCh – Surgical Oncology through Tamil Nadu Dr. M.G.R. Medical University, Dr. MSS Keerthi is honored as one of the few oncologists in Hyderabad who performs the minimum access surgery. Currently Dr. M.S.S.

What is Laparoscopic surgery ?

Laparoscopic surgery, also known as minimally invasive surgery( MIS) or keyhole surgery, is a surgical system performed through small lacerations ( generally0.5 to1.5 cm) in the stomach or pelvis. It involves exercising a laparoscope, which is a slim, long pipe with a camera and light source attached to it. The laparoscope is fitted through one incision, allowing surgeons to view the within of the body on an examiner.

Types of Laparoscopic surgery performed by Dr .Keerthi

Dr.M.S.S. Keerthi’s experience in  minimally invasive surgery in Hyderabad  encompasses a range of procedures related to cancer treatment and opinion. Here are the special types of laparoscopic surgeries she performs:

Laparoscopic Cancer Resections: Dr. Keerthi performs laparoscopic surgery to remove cancerous excrescences from varied organs. This path minimizes the size of lacerations, reduces post-operative pain, and promotes quick reclamation assimilated to traditional open surgeries.

Laparoscopic Lymph Node Dissections In cases where cancer has spread to near lymph bumps, laparoscopic lymph node deconstruction is pivotal.Dr. M.S.S. Keerthi utilizes laparoscopic methods to remove affected lymph bumps while conserving surrounding healthy tissue.

Laparoscopic Biopsies: This involve carrying tissue samplings from suspicious areas or lumps for pathological examination. She  performs these minimally invasive biopsies utilizing laparoscopic instruments, abetting in accurate cancer diagnosis and treatment planning.

Laparoscopic Colectomy: Dr. Keerthi specializes in laparoscopic colectomy, a procedure to remove portion or all of the colon( large intestine) exercising minimally invasive ways. This path is generally assumed in treating colorectal cancer and certain benign colorectal conditions.

Laparoscopic Staging Procedures: This procedures are vital in arbitrating the extent and spread of cancer within the abdominal cavity.Dr. Keerthi aLaparoscopic specialist in Hyderabad conducts laparoscopic staging to charge the stage of cancer directly, guiding further treatment opinions.

When does laparoscopic surgery work best in cancer?

Laparoscopic surgery/ Keyhole surgery is most effective in early- stage diseases that have not spread considerably beyond the primary excrescence site. It’s especially profitable for excrescences in organs popular by laparoscopic instruments, similar as the colon, uterus, and stomach. Still, its relevance may vary depending on the cancer type, stage, and individual patient factors.

What is the success rate of laparoscopic surgery in cancer patients?

According to thebest cancer specialist in Hyderabad,Dr. MSS Keerthi laparoscopic cancer surgery has an overall success rate of around 85 to 90 %, meaning that roughly 85% of patients who witness this procedure are healed of their cancer. Still, success rates may vary for different cancer types like stomach, lung or breast cancer Success depends on factors similar as cancer type and stage, surgical team expertise, and patient health. Usually, early- stage cancers and carefully selected patients profit from key hole surgery, offering similar success to traditional open surgery but with smaller complications, shorter medical center stays, and fast reclamations. Discussing specific success rates with your healthcare team based on your special situation is pivotal.
