How much will cost to realign my displaced nipples from a badly conducted fat reduction surgery on male chest? it still hurts with large scar marks
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends on technique: Thismreally depends on the original tech inquest used and the presence or absence or a vascular pedicle. You may have to be willing to lose nipple sensation. Scars cannot always be removed but they may be improved. Get some second opinions if your first surgeon is not willing to perform the surgery.
