So I pretty much have like a male chest it’s flat. Has some fat but I wanted to get my breast done the size I was thinking was D cup. is it too early to do this? And if I did what would be the cons of doing this prematurely
Answer: MTF Breast Augmentation Yes, sure you can get breast implants. The recommended placement is behind the muscle, in order to prevent the outline of the implant from resulting too sharp or evident, because you have almost no gland development. My preferred approach would be to make the incision in the armpit, so the resulting scar remains hidden. Some measurements of your chest would be necessary for a better assessment, but according to my experience, probably 400/450cc implants could be used.

Answer: MTF breast augmentation Hello and thank you for your question. Yes, you can have breast implants even if you have a flat chest. However, there are natural limits on the size of implants you can have based on your existing skin and muscle tissues. If you desire a larger-sized implant, tissue expanders can be used to stretch the skin and muscle, allowing for a somewhat larger size implant to be placed. However, starting out with a very large size may lead to complications later, such as shifts in the position of the implant on the chest, leading to suboptimal results. Schedule an in-person consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon in your area to have a full exam and discuss your desired goals in greater detail. Good luck!Michael Eisemann M.D. Plastic Surgeon Houston, Texas

Answer: MTF breast augmentation Your pectoral muscles will limit the size of the implants, requiring an initial surgery to stretch the muscles and the skin. The second surgery is to remove the stretching device, called a tissue expander, and your D-cup implants are inserted. Sometimes the solution can be reached with a single surgery if you place the implants on top of your pectoral muscles.

Answer: MTF Breast Aug While it is common to do breast implants in flat chested patients (both male and female), there is often a realistic limit to the size. It depends a lot of the elasticity of the existing tissues and your end goal. While it is certainly possible you will not be able to fully reach your desired proportion in the first surgery, there is no question that you can achieve a VERY noticeable change.
