Help Fund my Top Surgery
Donation protected
Hi there! My name is Gabriel, I'm a 25 year old Trans man and I'm looking for help raising money for my top surgery!
I've been out as trans for 7 years, on T for 2. I've always had a ton of dysphoria surrounding my chest, going back as far as 13 years old.
Top Surgery has been my top priority ever since I started socially and physically transitioning, and it would help out my life so much more than just alleviating my already heavy gender dysphoria.
My chest is also a huge problem because the size of my breasts is causing me debilitating back pain. I have been 2 sizes to big for my body type ever since they started growing in and its been hell on my posture and spine. My spine is already starting to curve in an unnatural way due to how heavy my chest is, and I'm currently a F cup which makes doing any sort of tasks, whether it be minimal or strenuous, causes my back serious pain. Due to this I also have a difficult time wearing a binder, which causes heart palpitations, an increase in back pain and makes it a lot more difficult to breath. I also have a very difficult time at work since the pain only allows me to work a few hours before I need to take multiple breaks to alleviate pain. I have been told many times that I should look into getting a breast reduction to help ease the pain, but I believe that getting them fully removed with help out much more. The pain from my chest grows more and more every day and I am at risk for scoliosis if they aren't removed.
the procedure I'm going for is a Peri-areolar Subcutaneous Mastectomy, which will cost about $7,000 for mastectomy, nipple grafts, lateral chest liposuction, surgery center, anesthesia, pathology, compression garment and pre op labs. Some of the money is also going towards recovery time since I will be on leave from work for about 2-3 weeks, leaving me with no income for about a month. The payment needs to be in full, and I would like to have my goal reached by June or July to ensure that I can get the surgery done before the year ends.
I would be immensely grateful if you can donate, this surgery will improve my life so very much and is hopefully the last stepping stone on my transitional journey.
Additional notes:
I Currently have $6,600 including what was donated here saved up for this procedure, so the final goal has been changed to reflect that ! thanks so much for donating if you already have!
