Has anyone had to tape up their nipple(s) due to overstretching? Started by: Jacqueline

    Hiya everyone,
    I went to my three month post op appointment with my surgeon at another company, as I’m not a Mya patient and told him that I was concerned as the areola of the nipple I’d had an uplift on had almost doubled in size a few days ago, all of a sudden. I thought this was due to that implant dropping faster and stretching the skin and that the other implant would catch up and even out my areolas (I didn’t have a nipple uplift on this breast). But my surgeon said that is wasn’t normal and was a complication as my implant had overstretched my areola 🙁 Now I have to pitch the skin around my nipple and tape it up like that, one day vertically and the next day horizontally for the next four weeks! To stop my implant from putting more tension on my areola and overstretching it more! Has anyone else had this happen to them too? I’m disappointed as I was expecting to be cleared for wearing normal bras and getting back to weight training again. But I’m now stuck in my Macom bra and not allowed to do upper body weight training for at least another two months. And I have no idea if my other nipple will stretch to match as I didn’t have an uplift on that one x x
