Top surgery creates a chest appearance that aligns with your gender identity. For masculinizing procedures, breast tissue is removed and the chest is contoured for a flatter, more defined look. For feminizing top surgery, implants or fat transfer are used to enhance breast volume and shape. Dr. Zhu customizes each procedure with sensitivity and precision. Recovery depends on the approach but typically involves wearing a compression garment and avoiding strenuous activity for several weeks.
Bottom surgery refers to genital reconstruction procedures that help align physical characteristics with gender identity. Techniques vary depending on the individual’s goals and may involve creation or reconstruction of genital structures. Dr. Zhu works in collaboration with specialized surgical teams to provide safe, affirming care. This life-changing surgery is highly individualized and often requires multiple stages. Recovery timelines vary, but the results can greatly enhance quality of life and self-confidence.
Transgender breast augmentation enhances breast size and shape to support a more feminine appearance. Implants are selected based on your goals, body type, and skin elasticity. The procedure follows the same principles as standard breast augmentation but is tailored for transgender patients. Incisions are carefully placed, and recovery usually takes one to two weeks. This surgery helps many patients feel more aligned with their identity and improves overall body confidence.
