What Is Gender Affirmation Surgery?
Gender affirmation surgery, or top surgery, supports individuals in transitioning to their desired gender. At Gulf Coast Plastic Surgery, female-to-male (FTM) top surgery removes breast tissue and contours the chest for a masculine look while male-to-female (MTF) top surgery uses implants to achieve a feminine appearance. These procedures are customized to each patient's unique goals, helping align their physical appearance with their gender identity. Contact our Pensacola, FL office to schedule a consultation.

I've never been more comfortable or felt more taken care of than i did here. I had top surgery with Dr Leveque, but honestly everyone is so sweet and accepting. im happy and comfortable in my own skin thanks to everyone here. it was the best experience i could've hoped for.
Friendly staff and lovely interior of the office. Dr. Leveque was very friendly and informative during my consultation! She really knows her stuff when it comes to transgender patients.

Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the right age for gender affirmation top surgery?
There is no single “correct” age for top surgery for gender affirmation. Surgery is typically considered once physical development is complete and the individual feels confident in their decision. Our team follows established medical guidelines and works closely with each patient to ensure readiness from both a physical and emotional standpoint.
Will MTF top surgery look natural?
When planned carefully, MTF top surgery is designed to create natural shape, proportion, and symmetry. Implant selection and placement are tailored to body frame and chest anatomy. Our providers prioritize results that align with the patient’s goals and overall appearance.
Can breasts grow back after FTM top surgery?
FTM top surgery permanently removes breast tissue, so regrowth is uncommon. However, significant weight gain or hormone changes can affect chest contour over time. Our team discusses long-term expectations during the planning process.
