If I get breast implants, will I have the exact same sensation when my spouse is feeling and sucking my breast?

Question

Robert Singer, MD · Answer

Unfortunately no one on this or any other website will be able to adequately predict whether your breast sensation will remain the same, be decreased, or be enhanced after undergoing a breast augmentation.I would suggest you find
a plastic surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and
ideally a member of the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS)
that you trust and are comfortable with. You should discuss your concerns with
that surgeon in person.Robert Singer, MD FACS La Jolla, California

This is a very good question, and one that I address with every augmentation consult. Of course, no plastic surgeon wants you to have any change in sensation. However, it common to have some temporary numbness after surgery or less commonly increased sensitivity. Again, usually this is temporary, but occasionally changes can be permanent. Good luck with your procedure!

Tom J. Pousti, MD · Answer

There is a low percentage rate of patients who lose sensation after breat augmentation surgery. There is also a risk of hyper-sensitivity. For example, some patients report numbness for a few months.  My best suggestion: select your plastic surgeon carefully.  Communicate your goals carefully and learn about the potential risks/complications associated with breast augmentation surgery; doing so will allow you to make an informed decision whether or not to proceed. Best wishes.

Thank you for your question.  The goal of the surgery is to maintain the sensation that you had prior to your surgery.All the best,Dr. ResultsMiami, FL

No one can guarantee what kind of sensation you will have after breast surgery. Many women are unchanged, some are enhanced, and some feel less. A very few loose complete sensation.
