Q: Shadow from old nipple location remains after breast lift with implants?

HI.
If the areolas are very wide, some of the pink skin has to be left behind when doing a breast lift with breast implants. Otherwise, the skin is too tight and the breasts are deformed.
This can usually be successfully revised.
