2 days post op with numb bits, is this normal?

Hya all,

I am 2 days post op and am very happy with the result. But Im slightly worried about the fact that there are parts of my boobs that are numb, including my left nipple, but my right one is half numb half sensation (if that makes any sense?)

Is the sensation in the skin/nipple going to return or could this be permanent? How long could it be b4 I expect the feeling to come back in the numb area's?

Would be very greatful of any replys.

Thank you 2 days post op with numb bits, is this normal? 48411

Hi hun, temporary numbness/loss of sensation is very normal, it should return gradually over the next weeks and months, but it can take up to a year to get full sensation back and you may find you have some numb patches for a while.

Hi chrissy congrats on your new boobies Stars

I had my 2nd op 4 weeks ago and I still have a lot of numbness especially under my nips. Its not worrying me as I took almost a yr with 1st ba to get feeling back . Misf1 is spot as usual. Just got to be patient and not worry. X
