I got a boob job and was surprised to see how docs put my nipples back on

They didn’t do the breast job.

A woman has shared the shocking — yet medically necessary — gaffe doctors made during her breast and areola reduction surgery.

TikTok user @salmonslayer69, known as Daldo on social media, shared a clip that depicts the plastic surgery patient looking down at her newly redesigned chest.

“Waking up from my boob job only to find that my nip piercings were now vertical instead of horizontal,” read the text on the video, which has 5.5 million views as of Wednesday.

She added in the caption, “It was just the [piercing] holes but imagine my surprise.”

Nipple piercings can be done horizontally, vertically or diagonally, according to the customer’s request, but are most often horizontal — the way Daldo’s had been prior to surgery.

The revelation sent her followers into a frenzy of crude jokes, as well as those who had similar tales of a roving piercing post-surgery.

“Gotta get them tires rotated and aligned every now and then,” one person quipped.

One former patient said of her past procedure, “My reduction surgeon put them on straighter than my piercer,” while another shared on behalf of their significant other, “My wife has one vertical and one horizontal now.”

Mused one viewer, “I’m imagining the doctors panicking in the operating room and arguing about which way they were,” a person said.

However, Daldo later clarified that the move was done per the doctor’s orders.

“The rotation is intentional to preserve blood flow and nerves,” she explained. “It’s necessary in some patients it’s not a ‘whoopsie’ lol.”

Indeed, sometimes during breast augmentation or reduction, a nipple must be shifted to match the new breast size; however, it can’t be placed just anywhere, according to experts. Doctors are limited to certain areas of the breast that can provide the most blood and oxygen to the nipple and, in this process, the nipple must sometimes be rotated to surgically fit the new location.
