I’m six years post-op top surgery today with Dr. Satterwhite at @alignsurgicalassociates 🙌 - Crazy it has been 6 years 😳 - Six years ago when I had top surgery I hadn’t even come out to anyone but my closest friends. I really wasn’t sure I ever would but the more and more aligned I felt in my body, the more confidence I built in order to come out and completely live my truth. ( also major credit to @dzhartwell for being such an amazing support through the years ❤️). - Having grown up religious, I had a lot of shame and deconstruction to sort through. It wasn’t easy by any means but I’m so happy I kept pushing through. 💪 - It can be easy to get caught up in the struggles that being trans comes with but I can truly say I am thankful for this life and all that comes with it. I’ve been able to experience life from a few different perspectives and it has made me a more resilient person in the long run. 😁 - Whatever you are going through right now. Don’t you dare give up! One day you will be look back and see how far you have come and how fucking strong you are! 💪 - #keepgoing #ftm #ftmtopsurgery #flexfriday #fitness #ftmfitness #health #strength #motivation #workout #exercise #dontgiveup #fitfam #bodybuilding #ftmbodybuilding #trans #transgender #transman https://www.instagram.com/p/CFks0r8sT1F/?igshid=12lbs21c31ork

WOW Wednesdays great results sent to us by a previous patient. Natural aesthetic lines, anatomical placement of scars and nipple grafts. This doesn't come easy and takes years of experience to master. Call us today to setup a phone consultation at 954-752-7842. #drgarramone #mansculpture #mansculpting #ftmtopsurgery #gensculpt #transgender #transmasculine #nonbinary #drg #wowwednesday #instagood #instadaily #instalike #instagram #expert #ftm #transgender #transguy #transmasculine #resultsmatter (at Dr. Charles Garramone) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5p4ETWDMxG/?igshid=52hfklkjwy6e

It's been a little over five months since top surgery and I couldn't be happier. I finally feel like me and that's such an underrated feeling. Even though times are pretty crappy, this is the happiness I've ever been! 😆😆

But I hope you all are staying safe and taking care of yourselves. Sending love to you all!

First week post op has been a wild one.

It hurts, but it's so worth it. The drains are annoying but not as terrifying as I thought they would be and the bandages have been constantly trying to fall off my body. However, I wouldn't change a thing. Tomorrow I get my drains out a d I vday to see my chest for the first time. I can't wait. Im so excited to see myself.

I'll post a picture of my chest when I can. Thanks for the support!

10 Things you might not think to do before Top Surgery

There are about a million “preparing for top surgery” posts out there - so this isn’t one of those! This is a list of the stuff not usually on those lists - its not key (hence why it’s not on the lists) but I think a lot of it is helpful! 

Wash your bedding - Because it’s nice to have fresh bedsheets when you feel anything but fresh, but also for hygiene reasons!

In fact - wash everything. Clothes, towels, blankets. You don’t want to risk getting ill - and it’s this stuff that bugs tend to stay growing on!

In a similar vein - clean your room. Not tidy - clean. I’ve got some disinfectant wipes I’ll be using for my room and bathroom. It’s nice to have a tidy room - and essential to not get ill!

Get “thank you” presents ready for the people who will be looking after you. You’re gonna smell and be grouchy and not that fun to be around. Don’t lie to yourself - you will. I’ve got some chocolates for my house mates, cupcakes for a friend, fudge for the friend that's driving me home, and so SO much stuff for my girlfriend. They’ll appreciate it. 

Take vitamins! 1000mg of vitamin C (way above the normal necessary amount) has been found to help wound healing 

Move stuff around - I’ve asked a house mate if I can use his fridge shelf because it’s easier to reach than mine

Get snacks and food for when you can’t cook 

ASK YOUR SURGEON FIRST - if they say its ok, shave the bits that are gonna be having tape put on them. 

Stop taking ibuprofen or aspirin

Get in food for the meal you’re having the night before surgery - and make it substantial because you’ll probably be fasting for a while the next day!
