Still thrilled

I’m finally feeling some nerve regrowth. The zingers aren’t comfortable and it’s especially awkward when they happen at work. Im still pretty numb under my armpits. But oddly enough I’m pretty sure the feeling in my nipples has increased since before surgery.
My fiancé and I split a few months ago and I finally had to show my new self, scars and all, to a new guy. Not gonna lie it was kinda terrifying at first. But he was absolutely adoring of my new body and had absolutely no complaints about the scars.

How is your sensation at this point now? I am your exact size 34JJ and one of my biggest concerns is retaining sensations in my nipples. Any thoughts?

I have full sensation in my nipples. the only feeling I don’t totally have back is my sides under my armpits.

Last week my nipple started having more redness around the scar and got super dry. This week we are back to normal. Doc says it's normal, just to keep moisturizing.

Just about 4 months in.

I keep wanting to post updated pictures, but every picture I take myself turns out funky. This one is better but just know my left nipple isn't actually that big or distorted. My healing is going very well and I am 100% happy with my results. The redness on the line down from each of my nipples is due to stitches that dissolved and pushed out of my skin. That would be the holes I posted about earlier.

I'm the same size as you. Do you know what kind of incision you had? Did the Dr do a FNG? I've only had 1 consultation and I was told I need a FNG.

I have never heard of that. My doctor did the anchor method.
