Hello,
I'm due to have a nipple reconstruction and a fat transfer in the next few weeks, does anyone have any experience with this?
I had a mastectomy with implant. I'm still debating to get a 3d tattoo instead of the nipple reconstruction, can't decide!
hi there,
I haven't done my nipple reconstruction yet as I have shifting thought about it. My nipple was removed because of the position of my lump. Originally I would like to reconstruct my nipple but now I'm kinda get used to it. Would be good to hear from others and experience/ info about nipple reconstruction.
cheers
Hi I’ve had both nipples removed and didn’t know u could get reconstruction, but to be honest they look fine as there are , I might get tattoos later on which would properly be easier , than reconstruction but even then I thinking more flowers than nipples just to cheer them up a bit , Good luck in what ever you decide x
Hello, I don’t know too much about nipple reconstruction but I do know about nipple tattoo ing. Have also read that there are plastic surgeons who can do reconstruction by taking some of your other nipple and then attaching it to the breast that had surgery.
