I had Breast Implants 8 months ago. Will the numbness go away after 8 months?

denisek
I underwent surgery 8 months ago. I had 425cc gummy bear silicone implant inserted in the infra mammary fold. My incisions are about 1 1/2"-1 3/4" in length. Both breasts since the surgery are numb in a pie shape, the large part at the incision tapering at the nipple. No marked improvement in the last 3 months. Post surgery I had to wear a surgical tape that was glued to my skin and was very tight. My last post op was at 3 months and my surgeon seemed unconcerned with this complaint. Help.
