TW for surgery results and scabs/blood!
Anyways this is my chest, post surgery of course. PM me if you wanna see what my chest was like before. For reference, I was a 42 DD. I’m posting this mainly cause I don’t see many bigger guys posting their surgery results.
I had surgery with Dr. Matthew Stanwix in Richmond, VA. I chose him mainly because I lived like 1 1/2 hours away from him at the time and also because he does informed consent. I paid around $8000 out of pocket. Dr. Stanwix does not take insurance.
I had a wonderful experience with everyone involved with my surgery. They all respected my gender identity and used the correct pronouns. Dr. Stanwix has a great sense of humor and is very caring and nice. He is obsessed with making everything symmetrical (he drew on me for like 15 minutes making everything perfect before surgery).
The worst part of the surgery was definitely the drains. They made it hurt to move my arms. The drains were placed in the armpits, which I believe is a very awkward place for them. They were only in for about 4 days though so there wasn’t too much suffering.
My only complaint is that I’m still rather itchy around my scars and nipples even over 9 months later. I hear that is just a sign that the nerves hooking back up though, so I’m not too concerned. I have yet to regain full feeling in some parts. I can’t feel my nipples, however they do react to stimulation (get hard/soft) which is pretty cool.
Thanks for reading! I hope you find my post helpful!
