I had a breast reduction 6 months ago and went from a HH to a D. I love the way my right breast looks, but not my left. The areola is a different size and the nipple remains "indented" after the surgery. My right nipple looked similar right after the surgery but it "blossomed" and rounded out. The nipple also has no feeling, and there is a hard lump of scar tissue inside. . I'm aware that the feeling will not come back, but is there anything that can be done to "pop out" the nipple?

Answer: Revisions are occasionally necessary after breast reduction.
Patients with a high BMIs have a higher application. Your surgeon may feel that this is too much of a risk in your particular situation. You may want to get another opinion.
I have had a number of patients with chronic back pain from disc disease and many have benefited with a decrease in pain following a breast reduction. Since you wear a D cup bra, you are probably a candidate for surgery.
At
size 40 each 300 grams removed corresponds to 1 cup size change.If your measurement is accurate, you would
require 2,700 grams removed from each breast to achieve a DD.The largest breast I have ever performed was
a 44 M and I did remove approximately that amount to achieve her goal of a 42
DD...
