I'm now 3 months post-op, and the anxiety is finally fading...

( SERIOUSLY, I'VE ENDURED SO MUCH NIPPLE-RELATED ANXIETY )

But it's starting to feel like my body has always been this way. It's strange not having very visible scars!


Author Comment:

With the type of surgery I had, there's no need for free nipple grafts, but nipple-related complications do happen. I'm quite squeamish, as mentioned earlier in the diary, and I kept having gory nightmares about like... nipple necrosis.

There are some two-years post-op pics in the author comment on the next page. If you look closely you can see the scarring, which really is fairly minimal.
