Summary:. In addition to chest contour and incision placement, nipple-areola complex size, orientation, and position is a primary concern of patients undergoing masculinizing chest surgery with free nipple grafting for gender dysphoria or gynecomastia. The author has developed a double-sided nipple-areola complex harvest and inset marker that facilitates graft healing in an optimized masculine orientation.
