When women consider breast augmentation surgery, they are typically very concerned about loss of sensation in the nipples. For most women who undergo this surgery, loss of sensation is temporary, but for a few, it is permanent.

Size does matter

Women with the most significant loss of nipple sensation had chosen the greatest increase in breast size with their augmentation surgery. Research has shown that women who choose very large implants relative to their breast skin should be warned about "potential adverse sensory sequelae within the nipple-areola complex."

Previously, many studies had been conducted regarding nipple sensitivity in women who had undergone breast reduction surgery, but relatively little information was available for women seeking an increase in breast size. In light of this information, cosmetic surgeons can more accurately advise breast augmentation patients.
