Hi Donna. Nice neat wounds, & the advent of absorbable suture material has only improved things. My surgeon actually took my nipple & areola off for my lumpectomy & I was really pleased with the result. Unfortunately I needed to have a re-excision, as margins weren't clear, & the shape wasn't quite as good second time around, but the results were better. 

Hope your pathology results are good next week.

Take care, Lyn
