Thank you for your question. I find that the biggest obstacle with a male chest is that the pectoralis muscle is a lot stronger and therefore, sometimes it is much harder to get a bigger implant under the muscle. Make sure you go to a Plastic Surgeon with experience doing implants in male chests.
Surgery on men who wish to live their life as a woman is now very common. The transgender surgery is not a requirement to qualify for breast augmentation. I believe it is important to have a psychological evaluation before the surgery and be appropriately cleared from a medical point of view as well.This is a very gratifying operation and I usually encourage patients to also have liposuction at the same time to achieve a more hourglass shape to the abdomen at the same time. In addition, many also choose to have a Brazilian buttock augmentation. Good luck,
Hi there, Thank you for your question. Yes, men can have breast augmentation. You will have to be assessed by a plastic surgeon in person. This way you will get accurate information regarding outcomes and sizes. Best, realdrsix
Thank you for the question.I have had the opportunity to work with several men interested in breast implants ( to feminize the chest wall). This is a different situation from trans gender patients in transition and from men who are looking to augment their chest walls ( pectoralis implants).Nevertheless, this subset of patients is somewhat uncommon; it is very important to understand patient motivation clearly and to educate these patients about the long-term effects of having feminized chest walls.Best wishes.
Not all plastic surgeons have had experience with breast augmentations on men, so please find a surgeon who has had experience with this surgery on men.
The short answer is that, yes, men interested in breast augmentation can have surgery. There are some issues such as tissue quality and implant visibility that can be unique to the male breast. The specifics should be discussed during your consultation. Best of luck.

Thank you for asking about general anesthesia and your breast augmentation. Statistically, risks rise after six hours of general anesthesia.Breast augmentation however is usually done in 1-2 hours. Risks are even lower for surgery that takes two hours or less. Hope this helps. Best wishes. ...
Thank you for your question and photos. Based on your photos provided, there is obvious signs of bruising. This is normal after surgery. If severe bruising continues to worse I would advise you to follow up with your surgeon, he or she will rule out a hematoma after an examination of that is...
Based on your photos alone, it does appear that you would need a breast lift in order to improve the sagging. If you have any asymmetries, a breast lift can help improve that as well. While a breast lift involves some additional incisions, scars usually fades very well over time. If you desire...
There is no ideal weight for a breast augmentation. You should technically be at your “best” weight, and it should not fluctuate. If you are planning on losing weight, I recommend that you lose the weight completely prior to the procedure. It is possible that fat reduction in your breasts cou...
