What Transmasculine Bottom Surgery Can Do

Gender roles are often dictated by society at birth based on the genitalia. If you were assigned female at birth (AFAB) but identify as male, this can be frustrating. FTM bottom surgery helps trans men look and feel like the person they know themselves to be. Aside from the cosmetic improvement trans bottom surgery provides, most trans male patients report higher self-esteem and body confidence after gender-reassignment surgery.

If you are considering FTM bottom surgery Fairfield County experts at The Aesthetic Center will be your guide. Our professionalism, discretion, and cutting-edge surgical methods have helped many trans men become their true selves.

FTM BOTTOM SURGERY FAQ

How does FTM bottom surgery work?

There are various gender-reassignment surgeries for transgender men. FTM genital surgery starts with an FTM hysterectomy with ovary removal, then removal and closure of the vaginal opening with vaginectomy, or colpocleisis. Patients can choose between metoidioplasty or phalloplasty to replicate the male phallus. Scrotoplasty (testicular implants) also help mimic the appearance of male sexual organs. Urethral lengthening may also be necessary in some cases.

The plastic surgeons at The Aesthetic Center are versed in the latest genital reconstruction procedures. Our surgical plans are tailored to meet your specific goals. Whether you wish to have the female genitalia partially or fully transformed into male sexual organs, we can help.

What is the difference between metoidioplasty vs phalloplasty?

Choosing phalloplasty or metoidioplasty is a very personal decision. These are two very different procedures. While both can involve scrotoplasty (testicle implants), they differ in significant ways. The main differences are the penile size and the degree of sexual function a transgender male hopes to achieve after genital surgery.

Metoidioplasty releases existing clitoral tissue to enlarge the penile area, along with optional urethral lengthening so that the patient may urinate standing up. Patients must engage in testosterone hormone therapy for two years prior to surgery to pre-enlarge the clitoral tissue. Metoidioplasty does not allow room for an erectile device because neo-penile length is limited. Penetrative intercourse is generally not possible with this method.

Phalloplasty is considered the gold standard in FTM genital reconstruction. It is a more extensive surgery than metoidioplasty. This procedure replicates a full-size male penis with neourethra using a flap of skin grafted from the thigh or forearm. If urethral lengthening is needed, the vaginal wall flap may be reconstructed for this purpose.

Highly experienced in both types of gender-reassignment surgery, our plastic surgeons will be glad to discuss the surgical method that will deliver the results you wish to accomplish.

What is the FTM bottom surgery recovery time?

Recovery time varies based on the extent of surgery. The average phalloplasty downtime is 4-6 weeks. Metoidioplasty (clitoral release) is a less complex procedure with a shorter downtime of approximately 2-4 weeks. If urethral lengthening occurs during metoidioplasty, it may prolong recovery. However, the benefit is that you will be able to urinate standing up.
