What Our Patients Say
Questions & Answers
Transgender breast augmentation (also known as transgender top surgery or an augmentation mammoplasty) is a surgical procedure that adds volume and shape to the chest of transfeminine patients using a silicone or saline implant.
While everyone is different, you should expect at least three days of solid downtime and relative downtime for at least another two weeks. You can also expect pain, swelling and sensitivity for a few weeks, but it should subside enough within the first few days to allow you to return to most of your activities without significant discomfort.
There are many factors that go into choosing the right size implant. These can include:
- Your body size and shape
- Your desired breast look and size
- The amount of breast tissue you currently have
- Your lifestyle
It’ll take at least six weeks for your implants to drop and fluff, though it can take up to a year for all the swelling to completely go away and for your full results to appear.
Breast implants can last anywhere from 10-20 years, however Dr. Barrett recommend replacing your breast implants every 10 years.
