Mommy Makeover – Erasing the Tiger Stripes
Oct 16, 2018
Dear BlondeBombshell94,
First of all I wanted to tell you how much of a smile your name put on my face, thank you for that. You have definitely earned those tiger stripes after having your two little ones. In terms of you abdomen it looks like you would do very well with a full tummy tuck with liposuction of the tummy and waist for some shaping. Based upon your photos you probably are not a candidate for a mini-tummy tuck because of the the amount of extra…
I want to transform from female to male. How do I do that?
Transgender FTM – Where to start
Oct 16, 2018
Dear Shamika21,
You have arrived at an important stage of your journey for gender affirmation. In order to begin this transition u wicked definitely recommend finding a mental health professional (therapist, psychologist, psychiatrist) with expertise in providing transgender healthcare. That person will play an important role in guiding you on this journey. For some people other steps may include starting hormonal therapy and considering top and bottom surgery. I…
What happens once a nipple graft has failed (FTM transgender)?
DIFNG – Failed Nipple Graft
Oct 16, 2018
Dear alexjm,
I hope that you are healing well. 11 days is far too early to tell whether a free nipple graft has failed. I recommend continuing your dressings as specified by your surgeon (I typically would have you apply triple antibiotic ointment and Xeroform/Vaseline gauze) and be certain to treat your nipples gently and avoid any rubbing or shearing. Please check out my video below.
Sincerely,
Dr. Kpodzo

Beware of Cup Sizes in Breast Augmentation
Oct 5, 2018
Hello Disappointed,
I agree with my colleague that you have a nice result, I definitely see an increase in your breast size from pre-op to post-op. The first thing that I noticed from your post was that you went from a 32B to a 34C. When you purchase a bra the number is the size of your chest right underneath the breast (plastic surgeons call it the inframammary fold [IMF]) and the letter is the actual cup size. The number 32 should still be the same after your breast…
I was diagnosed with ductal carcinoma in situ. Can I still get top surgery?
Top surgery and Breast Cancer
Oct 4, 2018
Yes, you are absolutely a candidate for top surgery. Having bilateral mastectomies using either the Keyhole or DIFNG technique will decrease your average lifetime risk of developing a new breast cancer in the opposite breast which otherwise would range from 4 to 8%. I am not sure if this is a new cancer diagnosis or an old cancer diagnosis, if it is a new cancer diagnosis the size and the distance of the DCIS from the nipple will determine if you can keep the nipple on…
