Top surgery includes bilateral mastectomy (removal of the breasts) and male chest contouring, and is one of the most frequent FTM surgeries performed. Top surgery is also sometimes referred to as male chest reconstruction or simply, chest surgery.
Metoidioplasty, also known as meto or meta, and sometimes spelled "metaoidioplasty", is a FTM surgery that releases the testosterone-enlarged clitoral tissue from its position and moves it forward to more closely approximate the position of a penis.
Phalloplasty is a FTM surgery that constructs a penis using a graft of tissue taken from a donor site. Like meta, Phalloplasty may or may not also include: vaginectomy, urethroplasty and scrotoplasty. Implantation of an erectile device is also optional.
