FTM Peri Areolar Keyhole Surgery Method. Boston, MA

For some reason my first post deleted some of my pictures. The cream that use so that my skin will tighten as much as possible in the next months and my 11 week post op pictures.

I'm a trans man I've known for years but I finally started transitioning in June of 2014 and started taking testosterone in November '14. It was a rocky start with the hormones because I got allergic to the patch, anyways, about 9 months into hrt I started looking into surgery to remove my breast, I did a bunch of research and went on multiple consultations, got turned down. But in the end I went with whom I knew I wanted to go with from the beginning, dr. Richard Barttlet, from all the research that I've done him and dr. Daniel Medalie would've been the only other Doctor I would've gone to. I always knew that I didn't want big scars so that was a big factor in deciding my surgeon. The reasons it took me some couple of consultations with different surgeons was that distance and insurance coverage were two big things, and the most defining one , the after results, not just from his website but from other FTM guys as well. The quote he gave me at first was honestly not that higher than what I got for a double incision mastectomy in Colorado and my insurance covered about 40% of my surgery so I ended up paying 6000 for surgery and me and my wife stayed at an air B&B and payed like 900 for 12 days that we stayed in Boston for my recovery. Dr. B was great and surgery went really good he took almost 5 hours because he wanted everything to be looking good. And everything went great I did throw up a bunch when the anesthesia was wearing off. As you can see in the pictures I have some residual skin laxity, mostly on mi left side and preop it was larger than my right side. I was told and I'm confident that it will resolve either all or most of it by itself and in the 11 weeks post surgery I have seen huge improvement. The doc also told me that if I grow my chest muscles, which I plan on doing anyways to get a better contour, the skin with get more taut. I'm also using an scar oil that has been working great and a cream that I bought at the local apothecary. I'm was wondering if there's anything else I can use to help with the skin laxity. A lot of the reviews really helped me deciding and for anyone being on the verge like this I would definitely say to go the distance because it can be the best decision of your lives, I know it was for me. Hope I can get some feed back!
