Would PRP injections help to restore the nerves in my nipples?

Question

Hi, I heard about PRP injections that might help to restore the nerves from the nipples ?is because I had liposuction one my chest ( only liposuction by its self, no tissue were removed or cutting the nipple ) and I lost some sensation and wondering if is possible to get some back ? I had the surgery back on February.

Sensory loss after liposuction is common. Many times the sensation will come back but it takes months and sometimes years. Sometimes the sensation never comes back. PRP, PRF or adipose injections to the site can help restore some sensation. We have had many patients who got great results with PRP injection and some that did not respond. There is almost no risk to this procedure, the worst that can happen is that it will not work so your risk would be financial. There is really nothing else that would work for this so PRP is definitely worth a try.
