Dr. Larson offers MTF top surgery, called MTF breast augmentation or augmentation mammoplasty, at Larson Plastic Surgery. We believe you have the right to beautiful, natural-looking breasts. Dr. Larson is proud to offer several options for MTF top surgery in Tucson, AZ, where we are honored to be part of your journey to achieving a body that matches your true identity.
When it comes to breast growth, hormone therapy can only accomplish so much. Most transwomen find that they also need breast implants – or MTF top surgery – to complete their transformation.
Among our Tucson transgender surgery clients, silicone implants are the most popular option because they feel softer and look more like natural breast tissue than saline. However, many clients also find the benefits of saline appealing – including the shorter scar and lower cost.
Once you’ve chosen your ideal type of implant, you will need to refine your selection. Prior to surgery, you will have the opportunity to try on different implant sizers to determine the volume, projection and shape that is right for you.
If you decide to undergo our Phoenix MTF top surgery with Dr. Larson, your procedure will be performed under general anesthesia. He will create an incision in your chest, either along the areola (periareolar), beneath the chest muscle (inframammary,) or in the armpit (transaxillary.) Through that opening, he will place your implant to construct your new chest. Patients can choose from silicone, saline, or gummy bear implants.
Dr. Larson will be there every step of the way to help guide your choices and ensure that your outcome aligns with your goals for an authentic-looking transformation. MTF top surgery has many benefits, including increased self-confidence, expanded wardrobe choices, and improved peace of mind. Top surgery has among the highest rates of patient satisfaction when it comes to gender-affirming procedures.
