Answer: Healing issues If you can not return to Turkey to see your original surgery then you must find a local plastic surgeon as soon as possible for proper wound care. Your nipple didn't get enough blood supply and it appears to have not survived the surgery.

Answer: Healing Issues Post Surgery Hi mustioo,Thanks for the post and photos. Based on the photo you have did not have enough blood flow to the nipple or areola. This will require wound care with ointments and possible minor debridement. If returning back to your surgeon in Turkey is not an option, I recommend finding a plastic surgeon in Melbourne that can evaluate you and treat you. The key at this point is to get the wound to heal over. Then a decision can be made as to how best to improve the cosmesis. Sincerely,Dr. Dadvand
