In the ‘Emersome’ joke mode: “Em_R_some Titt_TAAYS u got there girl”! Like U ARE a BOSS!! 👍🏼 & YES I can TELL, possibly unlike most mature men- I’ve been ‘Involved’ to GR8er or LESS degrees with 3 augmentations & 2 mastectomies! Old Age & Treachery BEATS Youth & Inexperience, EVERY TIME 👌🏽
As a nurse, I can tell you had an excellent surgeon. Your breasts look very natural and size appropriate for your body type. Like with everything else in life, you get what you pay for, which is evident in the very high quality results you achieved. Never skimp on price when it comes to a good surgeon. You are just glowing with peace and happiness and I am so happy for you!!!
Regarding scars, you might have already tried this, but scar reduction creams have worked for me. The one I used is called "mederma" and it worked really well for me just to reduce the visibility of the scar.
Assuming the scars are at the crease under the breast, they would be hardly noticeable unless she is laying on her back flattening out the breasts a little and time will actually decrease how obvious they are. I have had a dozen surgeries in my life and while all my scars can be seen, they have become dramatically less noticeable over the years. Scars are often the only part of the body that look better with age.
I didn't believe I heard what you said correctly so I had to look it up myself - yes, there is a fully functioning operating room inside of a HOTEL in Toronto
Maya. Thank you so much for this. Not sure there is a way of avoiding a large implant when you have a wide rib cage. At 6 foot with a 44” chest, even after muscle loss from HRT, I have been told that for an aesthetic look that I will need around 760cc for each implant. Planning on BA in Oct and hoping that silicon, tear drop implants won’t make me look too big or matronly. The surgeon will make a call on the day of the surgery. I already have a B cup. I have tried using rice and thought 550cc would be enough but this is a lot less than the surgeon is recommending. Nervous.
Ayla Davis hey hun I’m also trans and I’m tall also ^_^ 6”4 I had my breasts done when I was 21 so 10-11 yrs ageo and I went with 800 cc saline implants HP high profile my rib cage is a 38-DD and I’m now wanting them bigger personally but atm Iam happy with the size they look really natural also went under the muscle
@@laurenava8744 thank you for sharing your experience and perspective. My current rib cage is a 40 B with a inch extender so 800cc may be needed and could end up as a 40E if I use tear drop cohesive gel. The thing is it sounds massive to me but it may be needed for the best aesthetics and ultimately I wont look too big or matronly.
Trey Indica to Be honest if you are built bigger as in rib cage you should go bigger like 800 being the implant will be wider to fit ur chest wall... and look more natural because we are wider ribcage wise... I’ve had mine over 11 yrs they do drop but all implants drop that’s natural they shouldn’t get saggy if the dr knows what he’s doing but also going under muscle looks more natural ... just giving you some advice hope that helps yea I’ve watched botched and I am familiar with some people using more then one implant per breast or the implants that are now illegal that are made out of a surgical material that absorb the body fluids and keep browning over time and you have to get them emptied if you don’t want them to keep growing ya that’s a bit over the top I would just go with a bigger implant anywho hope that helps
Seriously, you have nothing to worry about "clocking" you are already one of the most beautiful and feminine women on youtube (saying on youtube sounds like it's a limit, but it's not, you know what I mean) you are amazing.
Hi Maya, I’ve only discovered your videos yesterday. I have family member who is transitioning M2F and your videos are helping me to become more aware of things that she may be going through.
Hey Maya, thanks for this video. I'm researching a lot about this subject and a lot of tips from people like you help me a lot. Much love from the Netherlands. Stay happy and safe. xxx
I grew up with/am good friends with Janelle Fennec and she also went under the muscle. Anyone who's seen her videos knows that she looks pretty natural. Thank you for posting this video! Love you, girl!
I’m also a Canadian MTF transgirl but I’m in Alberta :). Had a BA in 2012 with my GRS in Montreal. 8 years later I found the pain and discomfort, coupled with the growing concern about BII to be exhausting. Turns out I was developing capsular contracture and explanted this past February. Im 32 years old now, and they were nice to have in my 20s but I find my clothes actually fit better now too and living under the threat of more surgeries and anaesthetic (yuck) all the time just didn’t work for me. These are not meant to last forever and they are like a car in that you need to monitor them and probably maintain them at some point. But no surgeon tells you that!! I’ve seen many docs and I had to learn a LOT on my own. I also had a lot of trouble getting help when I started experiencing the chest pains. I think as trans women we tend to get so wrapped up in appearance and the excitement of achieving our transition goals that we don’t look at the big picture. I know I sure did and had I been more forward thinking I could have saved a lot of money. For reference I had smooth silicone 425 cc. Thanks for all you do Maya :)
I've heard horror stories about BII and that's why I never got implants. I've heard capsular contraction can be extremely painful as well as making your boobs jacked up and uneven. I was so insecure in my 20's about my tiny boobs. Now, at 39, I'm so glad I never did that to my body. I have barley B's , but I'm also 4"11 and 112lbs...anything bigger on my frame would look ridiculous. I had a friend about my size, but when you first looked at her, you'd think she was fat...but it was her boobs!! They were bigger than her own head and natural!! Think small watermelons... she had horrible back and neck pain and eventually had a reduction to about a C cup. She looked like she lost 50+ lbs. It fits her much better. I guess either way, we always want what we don't have, but we also don't understand what goes along with having these things.
I love to hear your stories. I am a female but you have from the start always presented as more feminine than me. Its amazing that you had such good success with the body surgeries. I hope for your continued happiness and peace. You are beautiful inside and out!
Thank you so much for this detailed & fun video on BA. As a transgirl, I'm looking forward to BA in the next year or so myself, and it's video's like yours that have really helped me to set expectations and plan for my own experience!
Hey, dear. I don't know if you remember me (hopefully) but I've been around for almost 4 years now. We both started our transition together and now I'm having my breast augmentation surgery on the 15th of this month. It's. Literally around the corner!! I'm mostly worried about the recovery process during these hard times (pandemic), but fingers crossed everything will be all right. Btw I'm from Colombia and my insurance did fully cover my surgery with a board certified surgeon from one of the best universities in the country (which is luckily where I am pursuing my undergrad in sociology). Thanks for sharing.
@@corneliaklug9108 Hey, sweetie. Thanks for asking. I'm almost 3 months post-op. The recovery has been pretty smooth. The only issue is that one breast is still higher than the other with a little bit of pre existing asymmetry but that's okay, doctor said I am still very early in the process. Just for the record, I got 380cc High profile Mentor MemoryGel Xtra placed under the muscle and I'm 180 meters tall, 80 kilos. Lately I've been feeling a little bit unhappy with the size now the swelling is almost gone. I have a medium frame (I couldn't go moderate profile cause the diameter would look too big) BUT I have broad shoulders. I think that because of my heigh 450cc wouldn't have looked enourmous. I am honestly confused. Also hoping to love my boobs within time, cause I don't think my insurance will fully cover a second boob job just because I am not happy with the size. Let's see how it goes. Thanks, and greetings from Colombia.
Thanks for sharing. I think it is really helpful for other trans women out there when you share your story. I am a CIS male attracted to trans women who believes in learning as much as I can about what they go through so I can better support my future partner, so thank you.
I had a deposit and surgery date set for December 2019 and canceled it... although I wish I had naturally bigger boobs at the end of the day I'm glad I didn't go through with it. I think not being able to "take them off" would make me regret it. I'm 36 cis female and relatively flat... it would be nice to fill out a bathing suit or formal dress but I am so used to being flat i think suddenly having boobs would be too much for my brain to handle!
Erin Kanouse Hi Erin! FYI😊 I’ve had mine for 27 years. After about a month post op they feel like a part of you and you TOTALLY do not notice them. Mine are a natural looking size. 5’3 120 lbs 270 cc. I can’t speak for someone who chooses to go huge, but I would guess that they aren’t aware of the implants either.
Once again you've taken a subject that leaves us full of trepidation and made us feel relaxed and educated, with your sense of humour and candid experience. Thanks Maya 😎
Maya your amazing and as a trans women myself this video will validate whether im getting breast augmentation surgery or not i have already had bottom surgery
I’ve been watching your transition for over 2 years now and I feel so happy and connected watching your progression 🥺💕 is that weird? Maybe. My bad. Still so proud of u. Okay bye
Maya you're looking awesome. Most important is you being happy & healthy. You partner or partners benefit as well. Very brave & informative of you to document your transition.
It really does look natural! Don’t put doubts on that 💕🙏🏻 I laugh so hard at the booby dance 🤣 did not expect that ! Thanks for being so educational to trans community, besides not being part of it
I think they look great ….. and very natural ….. I never thought that I would actually write in your comments page ….. but thought that I would try and break the barrier because of a friend of mine that is transgender ….. I met him in High School and we became best friends for many years ….. until I had to move far away and eventually lost contact with him over the years …. Until a few years ago , when I ran into ….. now a her . We talked and he told me that she knew me from High School and that we where great friends at the time ….. but now looks very different ….. After a little while ….. I realized who it was . I knew at the time that he felt like a girl trapped in a boys body from conversations . It didn’t bother me , even though I knew his secret ….. with that we still became best friends and had a lot of respect for him and his thoughts of feeling like a woman and confided in me about his confusion as to why he felt this way ….. There was never any tension between us about his situation …… We where best friends for about 6 years before I left . We are still best friends and support her decisions to become a Woman …… and confide in each other about everything …… She looks great also has gone through a lot of struggles similar to yours ….. except she is 61 years old like myself now …… She has tried dating a few times in the past with some good experiences and some bad experiences . Never finding anything permanent . She is happy and has no regrets and my family enjoys her company ….. Watching your videos has given me better perspective of what he went through to become a woman . We will always be best friends and have always been there for each other ….. good and bad . I’ve even been his backup for when he got into bad date situations . Pretending to come in as an old friend as a surprise from and getting her away from these jerks …… from time to time . We had a routine where I would come in and she would see me and act surprised to see me . She would call my name out and would come over to me and hug me and gave a little kiss . This is what best friends do . My family even supports this and support her decisions too . Watching your videos has given me a much better understanding of what She went through to where she is now . For that I even have more respect for her now and has brought our friendship closer than ever . I hope that one day that you meet someone that can give you the same respect that I give my best friend …… They are out there . Oh by the way ….. my friend has found a great guy that excepts her for who she is and is going on 3 months now …… She was never really looking for someone special in her life and never had the need for someone els …… but fell into her lap (as a matter of speaking) and are looking to get a place together . Yes , he knew her situation from the 3rd time they dated and has stuck with her all this time . Generally when you are least looking …… things fall into place on there own . I couldn’t be happier for them and now have two awesome best friends …… Anyway , you look beautiful with your transformations and admire your courage to speak out about it on RU-vid . I hope all falls into place one day for you the way you want it ….. It’s all about the person itself not the body it’s in ….. none of us has that choice on their bodies that we receive ….. I understand that better than ever between you and my best friends ……. and thank you ….. There are times that I wish I could chat with you about your thoughts on how to best help my friends …. From a little different perspective than my friend …… but usually, somewhere along the line you answer most of them …… Don’t let life’s ignorance discourage you from your dreams and thoughts ….. and don’t feel like you have to obligate yourself to others ….. just let things happen naturally ….. You will be surprised of the outcome when you have patience …… Not sure if you ever read this ….. but felt good writing to you about it ….. I am generally not into writing in the comment sections of the people I follow ….. some things are better written out of public view ….. Take care and will continue to watch your videos …..
So Happy for you! So Beautiful! God Bless! I’m a Transgender Lesbian Christian Woman 👩 who unfortunately hasn’t been able to start Transitioning yet. I hope I’ll be as Beautiful as you physically/outwardly as you someday, Lord Willing!
I remember one time at the bar a female friend of mine mention she had her breast done, she's a small lady and looked great with the size they where so never thought she got them done, cause she went from an A to a nice B cup for her size. So you do what makes you feel great and comfortable with your body, bigger isn't always better. I think you went with a nice size for your body that your comfortable with.
Hello Miss Maya. For what it's worth coming from me, You look Absolutely Amazing!! I've followed you for a long time and I am always so proud of you! Share your story. I know it has to help those who have questions about their own journey. Stay Strong, Stay Safe and know that you matter and there are good people out here who Love you and your strength!
You look great. My mother's husband who is no longer living was a cross dresser. He was a great person but I was shocked when I found out but I thought the world of him. I now realize a person has to be comfortable in their own skin. Great video and God speed. I am glad I watched this because it made me more open minded.
So jealous, I'm only 5'4" and have a 40" chest without having any development from hrt. At 50 I didn't figure I'd get much, but trying to decide if or when to get augmentation it starts to look pretty goofy on someone with my build. If only I'd have known at your age, though chest size was never gonna really work. You're so not fake, you seem genuine through and through! Thanks for your honest videos!
Maya, you deserve kudos for enlightening this "old white guys" mind. My only exposure to someone who is transgender was Caitlyn Jenner. Hearing the arduous path you have taken to become who you are today has helped me rethink societal norms. And hearing how shabbily you have been treated by some people makes me cringe. You are a sweetheart.
Greatly appreciate the insight! Thanks so much for the food for thought, it's always a huge help to have, especially for when the time comes waaaaaaay down the road when I'll need to consider this. Stay awesome!
I'm glad I have started my hormone replacement therapy and I for sure am wanting all of the surgery's for face breast and the final surgery it will be a journey.
Maya, you are a beautiful woman in every way. Being transgender is part of who you are but determines little in regard to how you look. You are as feminine as any woman out there without having to try. Stay safe and be happy.
Wow you are so lucky being a 34, it isn`t a big chest size so don`t worry. 34C used to be the average size here in UK but now it is 36DD, I`m a 36 but haven`t had my boob job as yet. You`re a stunningly beautiful girl. Always look forward to your videos, you are a true inspiration in these darker times. Stay safe x
Your breast augmentation is a great success. You look perfect. It will probably help your acting career, too, so it was a worthwhile investment as well.
There was actually a tutorial on Jenna Marbles channel and it was the first time I ever achieved that cleavage look. It's mostly just wearing 2 pushup bras instead of one and you can stuff it too if you want and then you can take it up another notch you can take a big safety pin and pin the straps together. I only do it for Halloween costumes
Your boobs look AMAZING Maya! So, I'm not a lesbian but I CAN OPENLY SAY that I think the female body is BEAUTIFUL ❤️ and you are beautiful. JUST SAYIN 🙋♀️ Personally, I need a boob lift actually 😳... So I'm taking "surgical notes" from your discussions about your breast surgery as breast surgery; whether we are a natural born female or trans; it is STILL BREAST SURGERY.... so thank you SO MUCH for the info.... Your videos are very educational! 🙋♀️ God bless you sweetheart! 🙏🥰😁
Hello from Philippines very famous here a lot of breast implants. Specially a lot transgender. I have 375 cc silicon breast for 10 yrs in 34 now and I'm soo happy my breast still fine.
larger sizes do pair well with larger rib cages within reason. B cups on a 38 band do show up to an extent but make that a C or a D and they fill the frame better and look more natural. not that small ones are bad but they show up less on larger frames as you mentioned.
I’ve been kind of silently watching you grow as a person this whole process and let me just say you are a beautiful woman. And yes I’m cis gendered female. But I’m also 41 so I’ve been thru the wringer by now. Let me just say stretch marks , scars and all those things I hate about myself that make me feel less beautiful..... body makeup baby! Body makeup. Dermablend is good but also the professional stage make up stores can match your skin tone exactly for I’m talking $8 and I think the brand I got was cerebre. Try this and see if it help with the underboob moment. And no I’ve never in my life stood naked in front of a mirror and saw cleavage it just doesn’t exist. you look beautiful. Like a beautiful woman.
Oh honey lifes to short to live in fear. You just follow your heart of hearts and it will never lead you astray ❣. I hope whatever you choose to do in life that it makes you happy. Because thats all that matters in the end. Your the one who lives in your body. and Ultimately It belings to you. Anyone who dosent support you in your happiness with yourself and your life. And except you the way you truly are. Arent that Anyone you really need in your life. Those who truly love you. would want to see you happy in your life and your body. Wishing you the best honey. I hope all of your dreams for your life and yourself come true.
I got lucky when I started estrogen, after a couple months my specialist had me on birth control for almost a year. This made a huge difference in results; I didn't want or need breast-augumuntion.
Birth control pills are not proper hrt(nor strong enough) literally no proper endocrinologist would prescribe birth control pills lol.... Something seems off about this passive post
Just as an clarification for what you doc had mentioned, peer-reviewed evidence reviewing revision breast augmentations for transgender women consistently have shown that increased augmentation was the most commonly cited reason by far for revisions.
I've honestly never met a woman with breasts that are exactly the same, whether it be size or level. Don't worry at all about one being slightly lower!
I really appreciate you posting your material; you are one of the people who inspire me. I'm about a year into my journey, full time. It will help me decide whether I want to have such a procedure myself; I'm hoping that I will not, but I'm not on hormones yet and I'm aware that my dysphoria may change. My mother had a unilateral mastectomy and she was no less a woman as a result of it, so I'm hoping I will retain the belief that getting bigger breasts would not make me more of a woman.
If your augmentation was too perky, you could carry a beer mug in each hand and two more on your "perks". Just remember that you look fantastic and cup size is a volume measurement. Your 34D could become a 32E or a 36C just by changing bras but the fit would suffer.
Wow,what a look Maya has!! She looks soooo natural! Both in the bust size and shape, and also in the rest of herself! Her face and smile are killers! One problem, she is not my neighbor!!! You are going and going far, my dear! Stay safe, happy and be yourself and your own friend!
My personal perception is that your bust looks completely natural and in prportion with the rest of your frame. I would never guess, from all appearances, that you weren't cisgender. I hope you feel the same way. You have honoured everyone who contributeded to your breast augmention gofundme campaign.
They do fit your frame very well. Love you and for the love of...wear sunscreen woman! I use baby sunscreen on my face because it doesn't burn if it gets into my eyes.
You look SO dang good! You looked great before, and also, I'm glad you went for the look *you* wanted to feel less dysphoria. I'm an AFAB (don't identify as cisgendered;-)), and I'm tall with a wider ribcage, and I'm looking for the exact same look as yours. I have a breast deformity so my breast tissue never grew properly, and I appreciated you detailing anatomical realities that factor into the end result of augmentation (e.g., muscle on dominant hand side being more developed, cleavage-without-bra being unrealistic expectation). Thank you!!
Thank you so much for sharing your experience! This is one of the steps of my transition that I am considering in the next few years or so. Have you heard anything about a disease related to getting silicone implants? Breast implant illness maybe? Is this like a super serious thing that is very risky or maybe does the replacement of the implants every decade help alleviate the risk? I'm so happy for you and for having results you were hoping for!
Yes I had implants only 3 years. I had over 20 symptoms, i just had mine removed and it was the best decision ever. Im in a facebook group with over 100,000 people who got breast implant illness. Saline implants make you sick too because they have a silicone shell
Brooke's Best Life Wow okay, I had no idea it was affecting that many people. It almost sounds like it’s not worth it. Did you get implants different than what Maya got?
Alex Didier all implants have a silicone shell whether it’s saline or silicone and it bleeds into your system after a few years. Releasing toxins . So all implants can harm you just depends when you’re unlucky like I was. After only 3 years . Yeah a lot of women are affected the fda has known for the past 50 years. Silicone breast implants were outlawed for a long time
I really need to be educated like this, every week if possible as I have a short memory span. Please Maya... don't forget to produce an educational vid like this one at least once a month at the every least. Many thanks!
Wow, you are a great spokeswoman. At age 72 I will never change, as only this summer I realized what I am. Too late. I was 'conformed' by surgery as male age 7. Now I know why I have always prefered to be on the other team. Grandparents must have known as they gave me dolls. Intersex correction was done all the time. Learned that, this summer watching a lot of old Oprah! Always covered up. No herstory. But I always wondered why I had huge scars! They took out my lady bits! Be well, I am.
A DD on you is a good size, in our head it sounds big but I'm cis female and a G/H cup naturally and even though I'm a large dress size they are still big in comparison and look like I'm wearing a padded bra or have implants but yours look perfect for your chest size.
Lots of cis women are judged harshly for their natural bodies/facial structures. A really good friend of mine gets trolled online frequently by people asking her if she's a man. (I understood what you said and meant but not every cis AFAB woman presents obviously as fem. That being said you are beautiful and I hope your journey eliminates any dysphoria you have experienced. Nothing but love and respect.
Maya ... as you note, most cis gals have imperfectly matched breasts ... if only very subtly and pretty much only evident to themselves (after all, who's going to be looking at them more than the gal herself?). My GF in college was mildly obsessed that one was larger than the other, yet, frankly, I wouldn't have guessed it without her frequently pointing it out!
Hey Maya, That is what the woman said to me as well - go a bit bigger than you initially think. I went from an A to a 36D and any smaller I do not think I would be happy with them. And the same, one settled a little lower than the other and hence very similar to many cis women. They will continue to settle and feel and look more natural over the next few years. And nowadays, the implants will probably last longer than 10 years. They ll remove and replace them if only something happens. Get your mammogram every year too. That's fun!!
