Does anyone have any info on the pie wedge technique other than that it is not desirable by most ftms as the scarring looks obviously breast related. I went to see my surgeon regarding my upcoming chest surgery and the way he described what technique he is going to use sounds like the pie wedge. Has anyone else any of you know or any of you had this technique? I have seen some photos of someone else who was operated on by this same surgeon and the results look really good but it looks like he used the double incision method on them. The scarring was underneath each side of his chest whereas from what my surgeon described he will be cutting from each nipple across to under each armpit.
I am not very large and from what I have managed to find on this method it tends to be used on ftms who are not small enough to have keyhole but are medium sized and double incision for the larger end of it.
Any info or links to any sites with some photos would be greatly appreciated as I can't seem to find any photos of results after this method has been used.
One other thing I would like to know is if I am not happy with the pie wedge option do I have the right to ask him to use the double incision method or am I bound by his professional opinion on the best option for me?
