What would be the cost and the risks of having my nipples removed?

November 28, 2022
Asked By:Hawkins, E in Lynnwood, Washington

I am a cisgender woman of 27, and I would like to have my nipples surgically removed for a number of reasons: - They cause me physical discomfort, - They make me self-conscious, - I would like to have the areas tattooed, but their sensitivity puts it out of the question. Also, there is no practical benefit for me in having nipples, as I have no intention of having children and I've already undergone sterilization surgery.
