Top surgery, regardless of the specific goal (masculinization or feminization), is highly individualized. For those seeking chest masculinization, Dr. Ives uses advanced surgical approaches tailored to the patient's anatomy and desired results, including techniques like Double Incision, Peri-Areolar, Keyhole, and sometimes the Inferior Ellipse, ensuring natural, balanced results.
For chest feminization (augmentation), the procedure may involve implants, fat transfer, or a combination of both. At IvesMD, Dr. Graham Ives ensures that every procedure is conducted with precision and care, reflecting his philosophy that marries artistry with empathy.
