I personally decided on 3D nipple tattoos because, quite frankly, I love not having projection at all. Means I can go without a bra and not worry about it. Also, I've had four breast surgeries and enough is enough....
That said, it's a bit of a different situation if you have the desire to match your natural nipple. Then I wonder if the reconstruction plus the tattoo would give you better results? I'd ask your surgeon. Another option out there is nipple prosthetics. I believe there are companies that can make a prosthetic to match your natural nipple. I have a pair of prosthetic nipples that I like, and if it were up to hubby, I would stick with those and forget about nipple tattoos, LOL. But for some reason I'm seeking a more permanent solution....And, a final option is to do nothing at all. Just boils down to how you feel about it - not everyone feels the need to do something about the nipple(s), and that is completely fine!!
Best of luck to you!
