Breast Implants in men
Placing beast implants in genetic males can be done and does not have more complications when done by a qualified Board Certified Plastic Surgeon.

The skin is usually tighter than on a woman but stretches out with time. I have probably had about a dozen or so men that I've treated with implants, most but not all transgender. As I recall, they have all been pleased and I cannot remember any of them having complications, although complications are certainly...

Not so hard.
I have done this for two patients who were not transgender, were married (wives in attendance for consultation, surgery, and recovery with full agreement and support), and have much experience with implants in the genetic male chest as I do a significant amount of non-genital transgender surgery, and have done so for over 2 decades.
Of course, incisions and scars are irreversible, but implants can indeed be taken out (which I did in one of the two patients). The important thing is having...
