Raised nipple grafts - should I ask for a revision surgery? (Photo)

Original481650
Hello! I had to surgery (DI with free nipple grafts) and I’m anxious about the way my nipples are healing. Both are very raised and puffy, whereas I see most grafts healing very flat on other men. I’ve been massaging them with Vaseline and scar ointment for a few days but haven’t seen much change. Im curious if this is normal or if I should ask about revision surgery?
