How Will I Feel After Repositioning Of The Nipples?

Hi, I m 55 years old. I had a breast reduction in 1989 and am now scheduled to have a bilateral mastopexy with slight breast reduction in 2 weeks. The doctor told me that my nipples are well positioned and may not have to touch them, however depending on how the surgery goes, he may have to move them. I am nervous about the risk of cutting the nipples again and the healing process. The first time I had the breast reduction, the healing went well, but the doctor told me that there is always some risk. And, I would like to know if I will be feeling a lot of pain. Tks.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really understand your tragedy now, basically your decision it self was risky for operation to reduce the size of mammary gland, in my opinion one must not go for such invasive procedure without any medical or clinical reason it is great risk you have taken, hope this information helps you, take care and have a nice day.
