Hi, I’m so sorry you are going through this awful process and I’m sending you hugs! I had a single side mastectomy 4 months ago. I’m very happy being flat, and frankly until I just read your note, I hadn’t even thought about being without a nipple. I’m surprised your surgeon is suggesting to you what might worry you. Surgeons do sometimes project on to their patients their own personal fears and unconscious biases. These suggestions can come dressed up as medical advice. You are on the right path, seeking advice from this community. I hope you join the flat chat group, because many of us are happy to share photos of our results and you could have a chance to see actual outcomes and decide what suits you most. I am holding you in my heart and hoping you land in the right place for you!
