Hello, I am finally getting top surgery in 2 weeks with an amazing Doctor.. So I am just doing my researches... I am qualified for peri and DI. I am aware of each methods pros and cons... But I would really like to have peri.. I don't mind a bit of loose skin or extra left in there... But my main concern is wrinkles or like indents that I have seen on the Internet.. Judging from my photos, what do you think?
Answer: Peri-areolar approach? Thank you for your question and photos. Agree--you are a good candidate for a periareolar approach. Good to see you have done your research and understand that there is a slightly higher revision rate for this approach for loose skin and areolar stretch. Best wishes.

Answer: Chest contouring Having done these procedures for over twenty years, I think that you may get away with a periareolar incision. However, it may take a second procedure if the skin does not shrink adequately.Gary Alter, MDBeverly Hills, CA - New York, NY

Answer: Peri-areolar top surgery Thanks for your photos. I do agree that you are a decent candidate for a peri-areolar approach for your top surgery. I would make sure you express your concerns to your surgeon as you mentioned - sometimes leaving a little more tissue or using liposuction at the end to smooth out any edges can lead to a better and less "bumpy" looking result, so perhaps mention this to your surgeon. You can expect some contour irregularities initially after surgery no matter what, but know that many times this resolves over weeks to months. Best of luck with your recovery!

Answer: FTM TOP Surgery Options Hi jmmm129,Thanks for your question and photos. From the photos I would say that you would be a good candidate for the areolar approach. Also, given the distance of your areolar to your breast crease, the double incision techniques would place the scar under a lot of tension and may not heal as nicely. Sincerely,Dr. Dadvand
