F2m Transman Seeking Help With Top Surgery?

Hello…
I feel totally lost and confused about what type of top surgery to get…
All I know is that, I definitely need to stop binding because it literally is affecting my entire life.
Now,
I have a couple of very specific questions for those who have had these surgeries:
(any type of mastectomy or breast reduction)

~ Is the [u]amount[/u] of breast tissue that is removed in an f2m mastectomy the same as those who have it removed due to breast cancer?
I recently heard that transmen who have the surgery can still get breast cancer so does it mean that for them technically the tissue isn’t removed entirely?

~ If I were to get a breast reduction to the smallest size possible, would it look natural(like a male) for me to appear shirtless? So, what is really the difference between the smallest size reduction {By the way, this is considering the surgeon is also willing to resize & reposition the areola of course} and mastectomy?
Since cis men also have breast tissue, could it possibly be that the smallest size reduction still result an acceptable male look? Or does it completely depend on the figure of the person? –An example would be: someone who is muscular or overweight would look normal with a reduction where as a slim person would look like they have man breasts?–

    im not a trans man but i know an ftm person. even biologically borne men can have breast cancer, but the increased likelihood of an ftm getting breast cancer over biologically borne men can be attributed to whether or not u spayed urself or not. if u only sewed together the vaginal opening without removing ur eggs, then u can still produce female hormones however much they are suppressed by your T-shots. i believe my friend got a reduction, i seriously cannot tell that he once had a female bust with a shirt on. he is also the slim type, not obese or musclebound.

    curious how is binding affecting ur entire life?

    A couple thoughts:

    It’s very difficult to get ALL of the breast tissue. As a result there will always be a very small possibility of breast cancer. Men get breast cancer too!
