How to Get Rid of Areolar Wrinkles?

May 7, 2009
Asked By:Chloe in Lebanon in Lebanon

I had a Breast lift 18 months ago (doughnut incision). The shape and feel of my breasts are okay, but the surgery left me with deep wrinkles around both areolas. When I discussed this with the surgeon he said that he should have used the T-shape technique, but reverted to doughnut further to my persistence on minimal scarring. What are my options now? Please explain those techniques with Before and After photos, if possible.Updated May 13th: Photo added
