I’m scheduled for nipple reconstruction in a couple weeks but want to hear from others who have had it whether they are happy with the results or not. Thanks!
I'm Ohio there's a woman called the nipple fairy and she tattoos nipples I thought about doing it bc she goes beautiful realistic work. At the end of the day as many tattoos as I have I just wanna cover my scar. I've heard really great things about nipple reconstructive surgeries. I go to the James in Columbus Ohio and I've met other women who have had it don't and don't regret it one bit.
Nipple reconstruction has several pros and cons:
Pros
- Natural Appearance: Helps achieve a more natural look by creating a nipple that projects out from the breast.
- Areola Tattooing: The areola can be tattooed to give a more realistic appearance.
- Personal Satisfaction: Many women feel more complete and satisfied with Show Full Answer
I actually went with tattooed nipples and aureoles. Obviously, the nipples are flat, but they look 3 dimensional. And I wouldn’t good thing is that when it’s cold outside, the nipples wants to go. I am very pleased with them and the women specializes in breast tattoos.
Hi Marita! I did have nipple reconstruction after my mastectomy. My surgeon took some of my right nipple because I had enough to share. I would say it does make the breast look more natural but not an exact likeness. Surgery and recovery went fine. I was given a recommendation for a tattoo artist who did the areola tattoo. Since this is the only tattoo I have ever gotten, I was really nervous. She was great and put me at ease. Again it isn’t exactly like the natural one but close. It took three sessions if I remember right and my insurance paid for it. Hope this helps you. Sending you positive thoughts.
Good morning Marita. I have nothing to offer but following because I have to make a decision about mastectomy and what reconstruction will look like for me. Sending plenty love your way.
