@buckokey Awesome, I tried to save my nipple didn't work out that way. Sounds like a good plan using your own skin, and fat. I just decided to do this recently. I think it's better because it's your own skin,fat from your stomach area,which is similar to a tummy tuck but, different. Implants have to be removed and replaced from time to time do to age of implant. So your age should be considered. What is the Goldilocks method? Interested to hear?

Well my natural breasts are “average B” . Dr just said she would use some fatty tissue when she removes 1 or 2 lymph nodes and make it match closely to the other one (which I had a lumpectomy on 20+ years ago). So not expecting to look young and perky but at least more realistic with keeping the nipple. Curious why your attempt to save nipple didn’t work? For me this has just dragged on too long as I had bad advice in beginning and have been dealing with it over two years. Amazingly, the lump was the size of a small egg with a “tail” when I started taking the estrogen blockers 9 months ago; today Dr said she could not feel it at all. Only by the grace of God, I feel, have I been spared. All the best to you!
