Chest Surgery (video to follow)

Hey everyone, I thought it was about time for me to write and post some pics about my chest surgery. There are a LOT of videos and pics around on the web (youtube in particular) about ftm guys having their chest surgery. Many of them are young, slim and have not too much in the 'chesticles' department. I haven't actually seen one yet that isn't, barring a few that are posted onto the ftm photo share group on facebook.

So here's the thing, pre surgery and some years back now....the last icky girl type thing I had to buy to hold up the chesticles was a D cup. That's not the only issue though, Dr. Bartholomuesz (the plastic surgeon) also takes a measurement of how far the skin has stretched over the years underneath the chesticles, as that is the part that has to be brought up to meet top part of the chest and where the nipple goes. The longer the stretch is the more flesh there will be to have to tidy up.
If I had the 'underneath' type cut  (life a half moon, same as they do with women having breast reductions)
I know it would be much flatter immediately, however for me I didn't want to have the 'boobs were here' scar. I'm also nearly 40 so that makes a huge difference in how the skin elasticity is!
Anyhow, I'm going to put together a montage (anyone thinking Team America now lol?) and a video of how it currently is, so if you don't want to see it for whatever reason just be aware of that.
