Answer: Nipple Sensitivity Differs With Technique Nipple Sensitivity Differs With Technique. In my experience most of my patients retain a similar degree of sensation after breast reduction using the lollipop (short scar) technique. On the other hand, a free nipple graft will always result in loss of sensation.

Answer: Horndeski Method™ I recommend a new technique called The Horndeski Method™.The breast tissue is reshaped creating upper pole fullness, elevated higher on the chest wall and more medial to increase your cleavage.Aligning the areola and breast tissue over the bony prominence of the chest wall maximizes anterior projection.This technique avoids the ugly vertical scars of the traditional technique, maintains nipple sensation and the ability to breast feed.In review of my patients, 40% have unchanged nipple sensation, 50% have increased nipple sensation and 10% have decreased nipple sensation.No patient has had complete nipple numbness.Best Wishes,Gary Horndeski, M.D.

Answer: Nipple sensation after breast reduction Changes in nipple sensation are very common after breast reduction surgery. Nipples often become less sensitive, but may become more sensitive as well. Multiple nerves give sensation to the nipple, and invariably some of these nerves are cut during a breast reduction. In addition, reduced sensation appears to happen more commonly with very large breast reductions.So to answer your question, no, there is no guaranteed way to maintain sensation to the nipples after breast reduction.

Answer: Yes, there is It is called the "pedicle" or portion of breast tissue acting as carrier for blood flow and sensation nerves. The so called pedicular techniques have feeling preservation in 90% of cases. On the other hand you have the free-nipple-graft techcnique, in this the nipple is disconnected and no feeling remains.
