Very Disappointed

Dr. Cole did not tell me any of the risks of getting a breast reduction. She just said all the good things about it and finished with "and you know all the risks of surgery." I lost sensation in one nipple and she just said "you should be happy" She also made me smaller than I would have liked. In addition, the office staff is the worst. The receptionist/biller literally told me "Dr. Cole is done with you, you don't need to come back." I was appauled. I do not trust the doctor or the office. I wish I would have consulted with Dr. Mannuel and other surgeons in Anchorage.

Regretting my reduction

I still have no sensation in my left nipple. In fact, I have lost so much sensation overall that it makes me miss my old boobs. I hate he feeling of only one nipple going “hard” all he time. I feel like for how big I was before it wasn’t worth going through with the surgery. Maybe if I were a G cup with really lopsided breasts it would have been worth it but for how nice they were before it wasn’t worth all the “negatives.” It’s something I think about everyday when I wake up and go to sleep. I did this to be more confident but it really brings me down a lot. I’ve been putting off posting anything like this but I need to vent somewhere. I just feel like it wasn’t the wisest choice. Any help is appreciated :)

1 year update: Still no sensation in one nipple.

Basically I have permanent loss of sensation in my left nipple. Doctors would say it will come back within a year, if ever. It's been a year and I still can't feel it to the touch, and it doesn't get "hard" unless I pinch it. You can see in the pictures how one of my nipples is bigger and lower down and the other is more perky. And it's not just my nipple that I can't feel. It's the skin around it and the skin on the bottom half of both my breasts. This is a huge cost to me, and I didn't even consider it before getting the surgery. It makes me think that it wasn't worth it. I still don't feel like myself, but maybe I just need to get used to it.
