Am I losing my nipple or poor blood circulation? (photos)

Ashley R
I am 11 days post op, my areola is beginning to lighten as shown in the picture. I'm hoping this only poor blood circulation. I have an appt with my surgeon in the upcoming days, but I wanted some type of suggestions on if this is normal beforehand.
