Breast Reduction

💙💖

Has anyone ever had a breast reduction? I am having one on Dec 29th and I am TERRIFIED.

Will I gain sensation back in my nipples? He said I would lose it but didn’t specify if it was permanent or not. I really don’t want to lose feeling permanently.

I am very large 44H so we have to do the anchor type pattern. If you could share your experience with a breast reduction, I’d be so thankful.

Update: 12-29

I had it done. I don’t regret it. After some soul searching it’s a small price to pay to lose sensation. I’m in a lot of pain right now, but I feel so much better. 1.300g were removed off of one breast and 1,100g were removed off another breast.

Final Update: 2-23-

I have fully healed. I have a lot of sensitivity to them (boobs) being touched (almost painfully sensitive), but the center of my nipple is completely sensationless. I have experimented to see how far I can take things and have nearly brought blood with my prodding. All in all, not a bad experience. Stitches were tolerable. Binding was the worst part.
