Flat Nipples: Anything Can Do to Have a Erect or Semi-erect Nipple?

June 22, 2009
Asked By:Gokichan in Cheyenne, Wyoming

There's a lot I can deal with for the relief of a Breast reduction with a free nipple graft: loss of feeling, no erotic sensation, inability to breastfeed, scars, pigmentation loss, etc. However, it really bothers me that I may end up with permanently flat nipples. It's very hard to let this little piece of my womanhood go. Are the results of a free graft nipple always a flat unnatural appearance? Is there anything I can have done to have a erect or semi-erect nipple?
