Nerve damage from Mommy Makeover - is this something that can be fixed? (photo)

247love
Hi! Four years ago I got a mommy makeover. I had a tummy tuck Lipo and muscle repair as well as breast aug. I had several complications from the surgeries but the one I am most concerned about right now is that I cannot feel anything from my belly button to my pubic bone. I thought that over the years the nerves would regenerate but that did not happen. There are small areas where I can feel sensations like a pin prick. I also have deep phantom itching daily.Is this something that can be fixed?
