Frequently Asked Breast Augmentation Questions



Will I lose sensation in my nipples or breasts?


I tell all my breast augmentation patients that changing in nipple sensation is a risk of surgery. It is not common to lose the sensation in the nipples following a breast augmentation but it is certainly possible. Some times nipple sensation can take several weeks or even months to come back. It is common enough to have a patient complaining of too much sensation or hypersensitivity of her nipples commonly around two weeks after surgery when the nerves are beginning to fully wake up after surgery.
