What can cause nipple sensation loss on one side and not the other?

It is not uncommon to have some temporary sensory changes after breast augmentation. The larger the implant the greater the stretching of the nerve. Occasionally the nerves can be hypersensitive or hyposensitive to touch. Most of the time, sensation does return, especially if placed below the muscle and using a inframammarry access incision. Therefore one should wait up to a year for normal sensation to return.
