Side effects may include feeling better about your own life choices in comparison
And probably get discouraged from getting SRS. Probably for the better if you have health problems and you were looking for a phalloplasty.
 
This is a result I actually don't consider too bad within the context of the thread, but serves as an excellent example of how top surgery as a goal for TiFs often seems incongruent with what natural male bodies look like. For example, OP here is a hefty honey to the point where her arms crease in the center, which draws attention to the eerie flatness of her chest. A guy her size would have what was once known in the biz as bitch tits, but you know being given a radical reduction wouldn't have been seen as "affirming" even if it was actually more accurate. Weird how that works, right?
LOL, her torso looks like a poorly drawn cartoon penis. Somehow more realistic than a rotdog, though.
 
Ever-shifting goalposts: despite not regretting her flesh-dildo for one blessed second, a FTM still feels that she may always have dysphoria around sex, specifically because she cannot get erect naturally
Did she not know that neopenises can't naturally get hard (and in fact will do quite the opposite)? What the hell was she expecting?
 
For something fun, fresh and different, I thought I would showcase lesser-posted procedures this time around so we can get an idea of all the horrible surgeries invented to profit off of insane perverts. Remember: most of these are subsidized by your payments to insurance! Thank you for doing your part possible to mutilate troons.

Blockhead: a tranny showcases his results after getting two different men to beat femininity into the bones of his sizable cranium, but the really jarring thing is that apparently there's nothing to be done about his black, beady eyes being too close together.

Primary FFS + Revision Rhino 2yr timeline

I had primary FFS in Oct 2023 with Nicholas Bastidas at Northwell and then a revision rhinoplasty in September 2024 with Joshua Rosenberg at Mt Sinai. Pics from L to R (A/N: chronological top-down): pre ffs, healing, few months post, healed after primary, rev. rhino, healed (6 months) then the last two pics show difference between my first and second healed nose jobs. The first left me with a worse curve than I had before but Dr Rosenberg worked his magic. (Apparently Bastidas' wife is doing rhino's now for his practice which for obvious reasons is a relief.) I'd recommend both surgeons but Rosenberg's bedside manner is better in my opinion (:

one month post-ffs, underwhelmed at apparent results.

1st pic now, 2nd pic before. likewise with 3 and 4.

i'm a non-binary transfeminine person who got a forehead contouring/reduction and a rhinoplasty done a month ago, was supposed to have a chin reduction but my insurance refused to cover it last-minute for some bullshit reason, so that's getting rainchecked.

i had a deviated septum and told my doctor i wanted my nose straightened out, which she said she would be able to do. i also voiced how much i hated my browline and how it casts a shadow over my eyes, which she told me she would be able to fix.

i dunno. i realize i'm still early on the recovery timeline, and i do see a difference, but it feels like she didn't do very much. and my nose is still crooked, perhaps even more-so.

i'm not looking to pass specifically, but i do want my face to get as femininely-shaped as possible. ultimately i'm disappointed, and beginning to feel like this has been a waste of time
, but i'm curious to know peoples' thoughts; especially those who have already been down this road. affirmations will also help. 🥲

One common procedure many MTFs get is the tracheal shave, an attempt to take the bob out of an Adam's apple. Of course, given that men have huge bull necks with sternocleidomastoid (SCM) muscles thicker than exercise bands, it often makes very little difference, but every surgeon could use another yacht or vacation to Belize, couldn't they?

Tracheal Shave

I got a tracheal shave about 3 weeks ago and at first I was so happy with the result (the first two photos above are the day after surgery), I believe now what I am seeing is swelling and the cartilage portion of my trachea looks no different than before surgery, perhaps a little smaller (the last photo is two weeks later.)

Did anyone else have swelling after getting a tracheal shave? If so how long did it take to go down?

Often times, one of the elements that guides TiFs in choosing thighs, arms, backs or abdomens for tissue harvest is due to a lack of tissue or proper blood supply. What has Dr. Del Corral started considering? Tissue expanders! And it looks just as fucking disgusting as you think it does!

Tissue Expander Update

Like the title says I’m updating my original post which can be found here: https://www.reddit.com/r/phallo/s/Lzn4oAYEKb (ARCHIVE)
Pre-Surgery: The initial goal was to get 200 cc’s in each expander, unfortunately, this didn’t happen. As time went on I was able to tolerate less and by the end my interior expander was very sensitive and notably painful. Overall I was able to get 160 cc’s on the top expander and 150 cc’s on the bottom.
Post- Surgery: because of how much I was able to expand Dr. Del Corral estimated a roughly 50% reduction in needed skin graft. As you can see I even have some skin that wasn’t used.
Overall, I am really pleased with the results. I would definitely do it again. I will say there was a pretty significant learning curve for all involved especially with pain management. The other component I wasn’t anticipating was that because I did the expanders it felt like I was the active process of getting phallo for longer. That kinda felt like a double edged sword.
Feel free to ama or dm me I’m happy to answer any questions I can.

Obviously, it's not an SRS post without a neovag, so enjoy this grotesque video in which some fucking ape manhandles the miserable pit carved into him by a sociopath. I like how his fingers tremble as he spreads the meat open as if he, too, fears what lies below - this could use some theme music to get us in the Halloween spirit for next month!

9 weeks past surgery, what do we think about it?

It's been now nine weeks since my vaginoplasty (penile inversion) and what do u think about the results so far. Anything major messed up or perfect for 9 weeks past surgery?
As part of the theme of this post, this is a top surgery result that has manifested very nicely for this li'l dood, and she has helped herself in terms of passibility by working out her upper body to develop a more traditionally masculine shape. Still, her traps are more impressive than the size of her shoulders neck and head, and her scars - while subtle - still exist as ghosts of breasts that once existed.

1.5 year post op - Alexander Armstrong (Nuffield Plymouth, NHS)

with my scars fading pretty decently i’ve been thinking about getting chest tattoos but to kind of accentuate my scars rather than cover them up because i actually fw them! any ideas? btw these pics were all taken around the 1.5 year mark and then the last one is a scar close up from yesterday. any questions lmk!

In contrast, the sutures on this li'l dood's chest are fucking gnarly, looking more akin to a radio signal than any sort of stitchwork expected from someone who has been to medical school. Naturally, she tries to gaslight herself by thinking she's merely being overly critical of her own body rather than holding a doctor accountable for what they've done to her body permanently.

weird incision shape 3 weeks po

like the title says, i’m 3 weeks post op. i just had my 2nd follow up appointment with my surgeon and he took off the tape over my incisions so this is my first proper look at them, and they’re… kinda odd to say the least. i will say that i love how thin they are, even on the edges where the tape had fallen off already, but i dont know if ive ever really seen a shape like this before and i dont really know how to feel. that being said, id rather have weird incision lines and a flat chest, but its just a very strange look considering i was expecting… something more along the pec line? i have stretchy skin so that very well could be why they look like this, but its just weird. i also have a bit of a skin tag thing on the right side that im hoping will flatten over time, especially since i feel like that side is still more swollen than the other, but that plus the incision shape is upsetting me more than it should. i know im hyper analyzing my own body and im overall extremely happy with my results, its just those two small things that are really fucking with my head

Good news for bloopearl, who we last saw was having issues with his rothole falling apart by the seams! During his visit to his surgeon, the good doctor ping-ponged repeatedly between adding stitches but tempering expectations by saying that they may not help but perhaps they will but even if they don't it's not a big deal but it will probably be better than nothing, which was simultaneously exhausting to read and exhausting to write. I would not trust this doctor for a second, but OP is a dumb tranny, so of course he'll do whatever the doctor says until it's time to spiral on Reddit about his surgeon ghosting him like many before him have tried.

update to canal dehiscence

i posted a few days ago about some concerning dehiscence i had with my canal roof separating from my vestibule, and im glad to say i got it looked at and fixed. i saw my surgeon today and he said it isnt as bad as it looks and that it will heal, but he did offer to try to put a few stitches in to maybe help it heal better. he wasnt sure if theyd hold, but said regardless it will heal fine, the stitches just might help it heal a little bit faster, but should they fail it wont be the end of the world, just might take a bit longer. i said it's worth a shot because if they do work it'll heal faster, and if not it'll heal as it would have if we didn't do the stitches. so he injected some local numbing stuff and i just held my mom's hand while he stitched it up, i really didn't feel much of anything but was still anxious. he also used some silver nitrate to treat some granulation which had been caused by the dehised part rubbing against the sides of my canal entrance, as well as some granulation i had along my right labia minora. this was honestly worse than the stitches, especially because i have a lot more feeling in my labia than my canal so once the numbing wore off i was (and still am) in a decent amount of pain. there's also some blood and other really nasty looking discharge now but I think this is all to be expected for the next few days after the work that was just done. the stitches look as though they held up fine through my first dilation session after the appointment, so considering they survived that as well as a very bumpy and uncomfortable 5 hour car ride home i think they might be okay, but im still not going to count on them holding up, and im just glad to know this is going to be okay regardless.
After a year awaiting for his fabled nerves to reawaken, a troon reports that his cock chop has forced him to use the jackhammer equivalent of vibrators to get remotely close to sexual satisfaction, finding that anything lesser like fingers and tongue simply can't get the job done. But surely there are solutions for this, right? He didn't just take a weed whacker to his nerves and screw himself permanently, right? There's hope for him, right? Right? Right?!

Lack of sensation on the clitoris

I am officially 1 year surgery and clitoral sensation is still... disappointing. I can have orgasms semi-reliably with a powerful wand. But, I had an orgasm from fingers twice, and oral just doesn't feel all that good. It is extremely frustrating as my partner enjoys to give pleasure, but I just don't really enjoy it that way. Any tips/recommendations?
A virgin Mary wants to get her manger mangled in the hopes of reaffirming her identity, but worries that the distended macroclitoris she'll get after a metoidioplasty will be off-putting to men who have desires for other a regular looking vulva or just a straight up penis. It should be against conduct to perform genital surgeries on obvious virgins, c'mon.

How have guys reacted to meta? And how do you even tell them you have it when stealth?

Context: I'm 23, stealth and in the process of getting meta, I have no dating or sex experiences and rarely even like someone. But when I do, it's so far only been guys.
When I think about most of my life - putting on underwear, peeing, swimming, walking around - I really want to have SOME kind of dick and balls attached to me, and I pack every day. Meanwhile, my natal genitalia leaves me apathetic on some days and disgusted and dysphoric on others. If I could, I'd snap my fingers to get a natal dick, but I can't. Phallo seems very taxing and time-consuming - I can't afford so much recovery time and have nobody to take care of me (my entire family disowned me). So "full" meta (including scrotoplasty, v-nectomy, hysterectomy,...) seems like the best and only feasible option for me.
I don't have much doubt about this - until I think about dating some day. Because as you probably noticed, people either really like our natal genitals, to the point of fetishization, or they like regular sized penises. I'm afraid to become super undesirable - when is the last time you've seen praise for micro penises in any erotica? When have you seen positive memes about it? - and it's making me doubt my decision. I'm afraid there's more queer men who'd prefer me with my natal genitalia than meta and, I guess because I'm generally insecure and really want to be loved some day, I keep circling back to that fear and doubt myself. Even though in every other area of life, I know meta would make me happier. (And even though I'm pretty sure I couldn't stand PiV sex if I ever tried lol)
At this point, I think I just need to hear some stories, positive and negative, to figure out my feelings
How have people reacted to you having meta in dating? And when did you tell people you essentially have a really small dick, especially if you're stealth otherwise? How does one even start explaining that to a potential partner? I can't think of anything to say that wouldn't be terribly awkward ;-; Should one even say anything before undressing??
Lastly, a MTF asks a very Veinscrawlian question about trying to get the "deep clitoral roots" that natal women have, likely hoping to get the body-rocking girlgasms of legend that every tranny soldier rides ever onward in pursuit of.

Thankee, Fren. It is pretty incredible, how big the menu of secondary tranny body mods is out there now for all their OCD needs. And how variable and pathetic the results are, really. Their faith in tech and progress is not being rewarded.

He didn't give us a full profile view, but I'll bet that he's got another one of those uncanny flat foreheads that slide into swooping ski jump noses that are fast becoming the standard FFS Tranny Look™. Even with all that work, certain areas of his face still reads unmistakeably male. It's unlikely to age well.

NGL, that's probably the best looking teet yeet result I've ever seen. The pecs are good, the nips are realistic and their slight misalignment isn't noticable. Or could be perceived as natural. But her wanting to accentuate the scars after all that effort just says how much she wants people to know that she was AFAB, and to get admiring feedback on her transformation. The goal is to pass- but not entirely. She went from NLOG to NLOB. Many such cases.
Possible_Peace5585 (bilateral cosmetic mastectomy with double incision)
And then there's the standard botch job we're used to seeing. "...the incision shape is upsetting me more than it should". Honey. Nip placement aside, those incisions should upset you a lot. Did your doc fail to have his usual pint of vodka before scrubbing up for surgery that day? Or was he bobbing to his favorite tunes when he applied the scalpel to your tender girl flesh? Jeebus.
 
These troons aren’t even in the uncanny valley at this point, they’re drilling under it with their plastic surgeries. Often the best they can do is look androgynous, but in a very freakish and off-putting way as if parts of a man and a woman were stitched together. You can change some of your sex’s characteristics, but you can’t change all of them.

I was scheduled for my third stage today. On the lineup was: length revision, a lift, stage two of my johansons urethroplasty, and a possible minor scrotoplasty revision (just to make the urethroplasty a bit easier).

Not long after I woke up my nurses took a look at me and I noticed a red flag- my glans wasn’t wrapped up like my surgeon said it would be. When I got my phone later in the evening my partner informed me that when my surgeon called him after surgery he explained that he felt an unexpected debulk was necessary, so therefore the glansplasty would have been too risky for him to feel comfortable doing it today. He did say however that it was actually possible to have it done under local anesthetic in his office in about a month!

While I’m disappointed, I’m relieved that my surgeon made the responsible decision. Obviously I value my health and the health of my dick, so holding off on an aesthetic procedure so that we don’t risk part of him dying ( :story: ) is worth it. These things happen in phallo. I just wanted to share for awareness.

Title. I have both a suprapubic and foley in for three weeks and my sp site has started giving me a lot of trouble in the last few days (barely a week and a half in rn). I've been wrapping the very base with xeroform and then pillowing the area with gauze, but I'm wondering if the xeroform is actually contributing to the discomfort. Have you guys found any tricks that help with pain/discomfort from sp caths?

Edit: to clarify, I really mean pain and discomfort at the site specifically. I have been staying hydrated and my spasms are under control, it’s just the area where the cath enters my body is very irritated. Based on the info everyone has provided so far, I’m going to stop using the xeroform and switch to just dry dressings to see if that helps. My team uses xeroform on the SPs and it worked for me last time, but I think the moisture and rigidness of the dried xeroform is causing some of the discomfort. I also might start taping it in place as a couple of you said that reducing movement as much as possible helped. Thanks everyone!
Oh. :story: Sadly her transbucket didn't have new pictures.

Oh, but what is this? She can finally pee standing, yaaaayy!!!
stp.webp
Disclaimer: my urethroplasty was staged, so I had just about two inches added at first and I had my full hookup two weeks ago, meaning I haven't peed through my penis yet. Idk how accurate this will be for full UL but I assume it shouldn't be too dissimilar.

I was also very nervous to start voiding. I was terrified of having an issue, especially in the middle of the night. The tricky thing about being nervous while trying to pee is that being nervous made it more difficult to pee, but then I got even more nervous because I wasn't peeing lol. Before you go to the bathroom, just take a minute to center yourself. Accept that something might hurt or feel uncomfortable, but that it's a normal part of the process. My first few times I had to take some deep breaths before I started pushing and it helped me a lot.

The very first void feels super weird. At the time I had zero sensation in my neourethra, which made it uncomfortable. I guess it felt like peeing through a straw. I gained sensation pretty quickly so it felt normal eventually, but that first week was very strange. The discomfort didn't last long for me, however for a while (maybe a month or two?) my first pee of the day burned and I also had some debris in my urine. My surgeons said both were normal. When you use foreign tissue to create a neourethra it will still do things like sweat and shed skin for a while. Eventually the tissue basically converts to urethral tissue. During that changeover process you flush out that debris while voiding, which can cause some sensitivity along your urethra and debris in your urine. Mine did stop in a few months, which was what my surgeons were expecting, but I have seen some guys on here say that even a year post-op they still had debris in their urine. I suppose that's a person-to-person and maybe a surgery team variable. While those things are normal, definitely reach out to your team if you have any concerns about sensations you're having or anything showing up in your urine.

I was advised by my surgeons to just cover a fistula with the pad of my finger while I peed, so that urine wasn't running through it.

Also to echo another commenters recommendation, drink lots of water! You'll get more comfortable with voiding the more times you it.

Oh and btw, my body had to relearn how to send full bladder signals again after having two catheters. I couldn't feel whether or not I needed to pee for about a month. Especially if you're drinking a lot, go try to pee every couple of hours. You might really need to go and just not realize it.

Those lesser-posted troon facial surgeries that change barely anything are fascinating to me. What they may lack in body horror, they make up for in pointlessness and irony.

Troons will go in for their 13th facial surgery, often with a ridiculous name like "frontofacial subdermal eyebrow feminization surgery" and look exactly the same as before, except with some scars. They're absolutely meaningless beyond raising your value in the cult, and it's downright comical that insurance subsidizes them. Insurance might as well be subsidizing scientologists' theta levels.
 
the worst part is this is deadass what all these lunatics and their enablers believe. Both male and female. They truly believe that shoving your dick in your body, colon in your body, or having a roll of thigh skin stapled to your crotch works like stem cells, that it will "know" it's supposed to be a cock/pussy and will "magically" turn into that tissue. I'm not exaggerating.

I'm sure it's a mix of trying to find the super secret cheat code that will fix the massive cognitive dissonance between what they see in the mirror and what they imagine in their delusion/fetish, and trying to one-up each other with the most custom accessorized Starbucks order.

The foot ones that have been shared here are similar: pay some butcher to smash your size 13s with a hammer, leaving you gimped & arthritic for life, and if you squint hard the result is size 12.5 man feet. I've actually seen it called a "Cinderella procedure".

Supposedly, the OP of this post is a man (press X to doubt), and he has such a measly little weenie at... 4 inches?... that he's considering getting his arms, back, belly or thighs mutilated for any sort of increased length at all.

Sewed some compression sleeves lol. It's funny how pooners will exhibit some of the most misogynistic extremes in their puffed up pseudomale projection, but then when talking about stuff like this they will fall back to talking about the most stereotypical female skills in the absurd context they got themselves in.

Crochet yourself a dick sling! Sew yourself some dick compression sleeves! Make a woolen phallus!

If AGPs weren't so useless at life skills I'm sure one would have Ron Swanson'd up a pair of wooden breasts by now.
 
Why do all the trannies shave? Pubic hair could cover a multitude of issues...is it a porn thing?
Someone else brought up the electrolysis which appears to be part of these surgeries, but I have another theory that may be simpler - it's about being able to see every little ridge and fold because they perceive it as the fix for their dysphoria (which we all know it isn't), so they want to be able to inspect it inside and out. Hair just gets in the way.
If I just got a shiny new toy (attached or otherwise) I would want to poke it and prod it and hold it and examine it, especially if I viewed it as a big part of what [I think] my identity is.
I don't have any evidence for this beyond what I see them say and how I see them behave, and I guess it could all be concurrently true (i.e. the porn thing, the electrolysis thing, and the dysphoria thing) it doesn't have to be one single explanation.
Anyway, thanks for coming to my Ted Talk. Nice to be able to add something other than puns to the thread.
