About FTM Top Surgery in Los Angeles
FTM top surgery is rarely a single procedure, it is a set of techniques, and the right one depends on your chest tissue, skin elasticity, nipple position and the result you want to see in the mirror a year from now. At Chrisalys Clinic, we offer double incision, periareolar and keyhole chest reconstruction, and we take the time to match the approach to you rather than fit you to the approach. That decision is made, in conversation.
Double incision typically suits larger chests or looser skin and allows the flattest contour with resized, repositioned grafts. Periareolar preserves the natural nipple-areola complex and works well for moderate tissue with good skin quality. Keyhole is reserved for smaller chests with strong elasticity, leaving the most discreet scar. In every case we plan for contour, scar placement, nipple sensation where possible, and the small details, areolar size, chest wall symmetry, the slope beneath the pectoral edge, that make a result feel like your own rather than a template.

Frequently asked questions
What does FTM Top Surgery in Los Angeles involve?
FTM top surgery is the removal of breast tissue and careful reshaping of the chest, including resizing and repositioning the nipple-areola complex, to create a contour that reads as masculine and settles naturally with your frame. The technique is chosen around you (most often double incision with free nipple grafts, or a periareolar approach for smaller chests), and at Chrisalys it's planned, with recovery quietly supported in our private spa under the same roof.
How much does FTM Top Surgery in Los Angeles cost?
Cost for FTM top surgery in Los Angeles varies with technique, anatomy, and the level of aesthetic refinement you're looking for, so we prefer to quote a precise figure only after we've met and understood what you want from your chest. Every quote from Chrisalys is itemized end to end, surgeon, anesthesia, facility, so nothing about the investment, or what's included, is left unclear.
How long does FTM Top Surgery in Los Angeles take?
Most FTM top surgeries at our Beverly Hills practice take between two and four hours in the operating room, depending on the technique planned for your chest and body. The exact timing is something we walk through with you during your unhurried consultation, so nothing about your day, from arrival to recovery in our private suite, feels uncertain.
