Depends in time: Yes especially if it is within the first month ... Certain areas may feel numb ...? However, you should see your surgeon if it is the nipple .. That feeling may be altered but not numb ..

Yes : Yes, although breast reduction surgery tends to be one of the most patient pleasing operations we perform, some degree of partial or even total numbness may occur. Fortunately, the loss of sensation experienced is usually small in surface areas and/or are transient. Best to learn about all potential risks/complications associated with breast reduction surgery prior to proceeding.
