After breast augmentation/lift, one nipple is very painful when it's cold. Any suggestions?

Augmentation and minor lift 2 years ago. Blood supply was not interfered with. Neoprene ring was removed one year ago which relieved the pain in the areola, but the right nipple is still very sensitive to cold temperatures. It will turn white and then purple. Both nipples are alway erect, but the left is not painful.
