I regret not pushing more for keyhole instead of settling for double incision.

The scars don’t bother me, I don’t love how it looks but it’s not my biggest issue. Im more worried and sad about my nipples. Every time I touch my chest and more specifically my nipples, I just feel like shit. I miss having sensation in my nipples so much, and I’m terrified that it will never come back.

It’s been just over 12 weeks since I got surgery, and I know it’s still super early and normal to not have any sensation. But man, I really really hope that I get sensation back fully/almost fully, and I really hope I get erogenous sensation back. I wish I would’ve thought more before my surgery and pushed harder for keyhole. I was so excited to get top surgery finally that I forgot to specify what I wanted my outcome to be and now it’s too late.

I hated my chest before top surgery but now I kinda miss it?? Im so confused. Has anyone else who is more healed gotten erogenous sensation back? Is it the same as it was pre-surgery, more sensitive, or less?
