It's been on my to-do list for a long time, but I'm afraid of the complications. I read way too much about it, and pretty much talked myself out of it due to fear.

yes Im quite frightened of surgery, but when I went for my sterilisation evaluation they said mastopexy was much safer than being steralised.

That's quite interesting. I would not have expected that.

I hear the after surgery pain is fierce. Sensitivity can be compromised or entirely lost. You need to find a GOOD doctor - this surgery needs someone with the aesthetic eye to get them even and equal.

They remove your nipple and/or slice around it and move tissue. O_O Something tells me there isn't a whole lot of care taken in the cutting of nerves, if sensitivity is a concern.
