Hey Danielle
My partner got burnt quite badly several years ago and after seeing what he went through the skin graft option is not for me - mainly because you have 2 wound sites - the donor site and the grafted site. I do know someone who has had grafted nipples (the donor site was the top of the inner thigh) and the result does look very realistic. Initially I only wanted just tattooed nipples, but my surgeon and partner encouraged me to go more for a 3D effect as he said that it will look less like a transfer. The surgery I am having is done under a local anaesthetic and is where they twist the skin into a nipple and stitch it. I don't have much feeling there anyway so hopefully it won't hurt too much. Then in a few weeks time I will have the tattooing of the areola. I am hoping that the result is that I don't have perpetual 'high beams' ....lol
Will let you know how I get on
