Techniques
Three incision methods, one honest recommendations
Your surgeon recommends a technique based on chest size, skin elasticity and your goals for scarring — not on what's easiest to schedule.
Most requested
Double incision
Free nipple grafts and the flattest possible result. Best for larger chests or lower skin elasticity.
How it works →
Least scarring
Keyhole
A small incision around the areola, nipple sensation preserved. Suited to smaller chests with good skin elasticity.
How it works →
Middle ground
Peri-areolar
Areola resized and nipple kept attached, incision hidden at its border. For moderate chest size.

Common questions
Before you ask, we've probably answered it
Eligibility letters, scar healing, travel logistics and payment — the full list is on the FAQ page.
Browse all FAQsMost patients bring one letter of support from a mental health professional, following the WPATH Standards of Care. We review your documentation during the free consultation and confirm exactly what's needed for your case.
We schedule a check-up around day 5–7 after surgery and clear you to fly once drains are out and the surgical team is satisfied with healing. Most patients fly home on day 7.
Surgeon and hospital fees, anaesthesia, one night's hospital stay, hotel, airport transfers and your coordinator are quoted as one number. Only international flights, travel insurance and optional add-ons sit outside the package.
