Great boob shape but nipple damage

The Muhammad Ali of Boobs

WORTH IT
Mr Marsh has changed my life. I had my surgery yesterday at 8:30am and it's 3am (I am a light sleeper, not awake due to the surgery). My pain relief has worn off and I'm fine - yes it burns a bit and I feel sore but that's it. Anyway, so far I'm SO happy! I can already see the position and get an idea of shape and size. But mainly at this stage reflecting on the experience and how comfortable the whole of yesterday was. Everyone knows Marsh is the Best at Boobs, but having met him I also feel he's the nicest person I have ever met on Harley Street (and trust me I've seen them all!).I feel so comfortable talking to him about things I would usually be shy about, and he is honest in a really kind and considerate way, unlike many other cosmetic surgeons who in my experience play on insecurities to upsell. With all that weight off my chest, I feel so much more is possible. I knew my boobs were holding me back but I didn't realise how much - I realised as I was being driven home through London's bumpy roads the soreness of my new small boobs was less annoying than my old big boobs which used to jiggle and ache all the time! For all my life. So I feel really free.The things I can't do, are lift my arms over my head, open high cupboards, the freezer, and tie my shoelaces. That kind of thing, but otherwise absolutely fine. Anyway, it's only been 18hrs or so, so I better not count my chickens. Will update review soon.Also: the one tip I have that I hadn't already heard is to try not to book on the first day of your period. I came on during surgery and it resulted in severe period pains, I think the laying down for hours causes clots and clots = pain. Sorry for the graphic detail but no one teaches us this stuff!

NIPPLES ARE IMPORTANT (PLEASE READ)

nobodynosey
After my surgery I have got scars around my nipples and some nipple loss. It looks OK but it’s important that people consider this because you never see it in pictures. I lost about 10% of the right nipple and the left stretched and had to be revised. They are still not symmetrical. I think that’s just this surgery. But no one tells you - so check lots of nipple pics before you go ahead.

Nipple Sensation Matters

nobodynosey
Now it’s been almost 2 years I can be sure that the sensation in my nipples is not coming back. I have tried PRP recently so there’s a tiny bit of hope, but unfortunately it doesn’t look like I’ll be able to feel my nipples again. I do think this has seriously affected my sex life and my relationship with my body and it’s sad. Yes I love the new shape of my boobs and feel lighter. But the two issues I’ve had - partial nipple loss, nipple warping and sensation loss, have a greater impact than I thought and people should know. Here’s the final result.
