Nipples lost about 60% erection reaction after breast aug revision/Benelli Life.

Thank you for your questions. Numbness and changes in sensation and function can be a known complication of surgery. Sometimes these return gradually over time, but this can often take several months, even up to a year or more. But sometimes those changes are permanent. Only time will tell.Good luck!Dallas R.

Dear LuluMyLu,Numbness is very common. It depends on the operation but often times sensation can return in a couple of weeks, a year, or not at all.  Nipple sensation itself is very important and can sometimes be lost with breast surgery. This is often mentioned in the risks of the consent process. I imagine your numbness is just temporary although I would have to examine you.Daniel Barrett, MD

Having 40% nipple erectile function at four and a half months is encouraging.  Over the next several months, it is possible that you may regain normal erectile function as swelling resolves.
