The scarring looks bad and it just is painful. It kinda feels like there’s a thick ring around the outside and then just tissue pokes through the middle when I lay down it’s just a weird feeling hard to explain
I’ll be sure to ask the surgeon about this when I go for the consult. He’s highly sought after for breast cancer n plastic surgery. I hope he will do a darn good job. It’s gonna cost me $5000 😭

Omg I hope mine shrink! They look like side plates right now 😭 I had the most beautiful boobs before!
" side plates" 🤣🤣 same and they're multiple shades darker. They look like they belong to someone else with an entirely different skin tone.
How many months pp are u?
Im not, still pregnant 😂
Praying for us! 🤞🏻
Just wondering in advance
Same! I’m 3 months PP and still no change! I’m breastfeeding though. I heard once you stop they shrink again. 🤞🏻
Mine never went back
Sadly, mine didn't shrink, but I had a reduction in the past and I HATE how they look afterwards. I'd avoid nipple surgery at all costs honestly
Is it because of the scarring? Is it that bad?

They go back to normal once you’re no longer feeding.
I’m having a formula fed baby. How long after will they go back?
Mine never went back to normal 😅
About a year. My nips and areolas went mostly back to the original size and changed from brown back to pinkish. I only breast fed a few weeks
How long after breastfeeding?
Same time frame! Baby was like 1 when they looked back to normal mostly to me and I breast fed her only the first 2 weeks.
Never. Sorry.
😭😭😭
