Patients may or may not be on hormones preoperatively – this is not a requirement. In many cases, these procedures can be covered by health insurance, thanks to increasing awareness of the diagnosis and treatment of gender dysphoria.
FTM gender affirmation surgery involves removing a patient’s breasts and rearranging the chest tissue and nipples into a more masculine appearance. There are a variety of different techniques we use, depending on what a patient’s goals and appearance is before surgery. Some of these techniques include liposuction and free nipple grafting. These procedures are typically performed in either an outpatient setting or an overnight stay in the hospital, depending on the patient’s needs and preferences.
MTF gender affirmation surgery assists the patient in creating a more feminine chest and breast shape. We use breast implants as well as fat grafting to help accomplish the patient’s vision. Fat grafting can help soften the contours of the implant and give a more natural appearance to the breast. These procedures are typically performed in an outpatient setting.

Let’s hear I recently underwent surgery, and I can't express enough how pleased I am with the entire process. From my first consultation to post-operative care, the medical team demonstrated outstanding professionalism and compassion.
The staff took the time to explain each step of the procedure, addressing all my questions and concerns. Their attention to detail made me feel at ease and confident in my decision. On the day of the surgery, I was greeted by a friendly team that ensured I was comfortable and well-informed throughout the process.
The recovery phase has also been remarkably smooth. The team were attentive and always available to assist me, making sure I had everything I needed for a comfortable healing process. Their support not only helped me physically but also gave me a much-needed mental boost.
Overall, my experience has been incredibly positive. I appreciate the dedication and care from every member of the team; they truly made this a remarkable journey. I would highly recommend this facility to anyone in need of surgery. Thank you for making such a potentially stressful experience enjoyable.
I had the best experience with Dr. Rowe and his team. From the consultation through recovery, they were professional, caring, and attentive. Dr. Rowe made me feel amazing and confident, and I’m beyond happy with my results. Highly recommend!!!
I want to extend my deepest gratitude for the incredible care and support I received during my breast reduction last August. From the moment I hopped on a call and walked through your doors, I felt embraced by warmth and compassion.
A special shoutout to Amanda, whose guidance and encouragement made the entire process seamless. Sorry for the countless phone calls, but most importantly thank you for always answering my annoying questions (hehe). Even when she wasn’t in the office, Lily stepped in with her kind and unwavering support. And of course Besiana!! You’re simply unparalleled in your compassion and care. Bes, your office became a sanctuary for me, where our conversations transcended the typical patient-provider dynamic. We shared stories, hopes and just inspired one another (you mostly).. :
Loved that there were moments when our connection was so profound that we nearly cried with love and understanding.
Dr. Schneider, where do I begin?
You provided me with more than just medical expertise; you offered me a sense of motherly comfort that eased my anxieties and filled me with confidence. Your words of reassurance before the surgery and your presence during it made all the difference. You’re so amazing!
Thank you, Rowe Plastic Surgery, for not only changing my life physically but also for giving me emotional support beyond measure. With heartfelt appreciation, I am forever grateful for everything you've done for me.
The entire team at Rowe Plastic Surgery, especially Dr. Schneider, were nothing less than amazing. Every person I have dealt with was incredibly helpful and kind hearted. They all made the process of something this life changing so much easier and less stressful. I give them my many thanks, appreciation and respect for their hard work.
