3 years post op & no nipple sensation - what I do to regain feeling?

Practical837276
I am coming up on 3 years since my breast reduction & I still have little to no feeling in my nipples. If I pinch them really hard I can feel them, but they do not feel temperature at all. I can hold an ice cube to them and feel absolutely nothing. They also rarely get stimulated. Is there anything I can do to try to regain feeling?
