Breast implants removal and excess skin?

January 26, 2017
Asked By:Miranda72668 in La France, FR

I'm a M2F transgender woman. I have decided to re-transition to male after ten years of being female. I need to have my breast implants removed and my surgeon told me I will have sagging "flaps" or empty excess skin hanging down but can't he somehow remove the excess skin? What happens to the "male" chest after implants are removed?
