Post Breast Reduction - Nipple Height

December 30, 2010
Asked By:wuzzie12 in saintlouis

Okay so I had a reduction on dec.29.2010. It was only on my right breast to correct the asymmetry I had. my right was a 32ddd while my left is a 32c-d. After the surgery my right breast seems smaller than my left and also the nipple is considerably higher. Will this change? I am concerned that is is smaller because shouldn't it be larger due to swelling? I am worried about this. Will it change? Also i am still very numb. How long will it take before I know if I will ever have feeling?
