this is the second time I had my left nipple done only to look exactly like it did the first time. I'm so frustrated. The right nipple he made very long so when it shrunk over 6-8 weeks it's a nice little nub but it was huge in the beginning. However, the left nipple was not long so when it shrunk it disappeared. So, he redid it. Exactly like he did the first time!!! So, it's going to disappear again. I'm so over it. I'm just going to get them tattooed and be done. This is going on 2 years. Had first reconstruction 2015. Second in 2016 because the first was a hot mess. Should have gone to another ps. Can someone please offer me some advice here

    If you are still at your wits end about what to do, here is something new to consider. There is a site called pink-perfect where you can order a prosthetic nipple. This is what they say on their site. "Pink Perfect produces realistic custom-made and ready-made adhesive silicone nipples for women who have undergone unilateral or bilateral mastectomies.Our nipple prostheses were designed by a breast cancer survivor, who herself wears a prosthetic nipple, to look and feel like real nipples.Made by an artist, the Pink Perfect adhesive nipple prosthesis replicates the shape, size, color and texture of your remaining nipple. It is waterproof and can be worn in the shower, ocean or swimming pool.Our nipple prosthesis will help you feel whole again after your surgeries, be satisfied with your appearance and feel comfortable in your own skin." Just something to think about.
