Asked By:Soon2Beboobies in Los Angeles, California

It has been 8 months since my breast lift and augmentation and I'm still having trouble feeling sensation in my nipples and on certain areas of my breast. My nipples do respond to stimulation (hardening when rubbed) however I cant feel them being stimulated. I can also feel pain if they are pinched really hard. But I do not feel much of anything when they are rubbed which has been frustrating. Will the sensation return?
