Scheduled for a lift with implant this week & want to back out of lift, would my surgeon do this if I asked?

April 20, 2024

I am scheduled on Thursday for a mastopexy and implant. I'm becoming increasingly terrified of the potential of necrosis of the nipple. I know it's small chance but ive seen enough people on here that have experienced it and it terrifies me. I have minor ptosis (grade 1)... would my surgeon perform the implants without a lift if I asked? Do you think he would see me to discuss this week though my surgery is Friday?
