Does a Breast Augmentation permanently stretch the areola and causing nipples to stay hard all the time. My boyfriend says all the Breast Augmentation he looked at looks the same because of the areola and nipple. Do they always stretch areola?
Answer: Nipples and Areolas will stretch a minimal amount with breast augmentation Hi there- You should expect your nipple/areola complexes to stretch a minor amount with breast augmentation, as will (obviously) the skin of the rest of your breast. In the vast majority of patients the nipples remain in good proportion to the breast, and because the breast enlarges more than the nipple, patients who before surgery thought their nipples/areolas were too large, find them in BETTER proportion after surgery- so I'm not sure where your boyfriend is looking... Find a surgeon you like first- and ask to see photos of their work. This should not be something that causes you regret with your augmentation.

CONTACT NOW Answer: Will Breast Augmentation Stretch the Areola Permanently? Breast augmentation can sometimes result in temporary stretching of the areola due to the increased volume of the breast tissue. However, this effect is often temporary, and the areola may contract over time. It’s essential to discuss potential changes with your surgeon during the consultation to better understand individual outcomes and considerations.

Answer: Areola Will Stretch; Nipples Will Not Stay Hard Thank you for your question. Breast augmentation surgery will potentially permanently stretch the nipple-areolar complex, and the amount of stretching depends somewhat on the size of the implant placed. The nipples should not stay hard all the time.

Answer: Stretching of the Areolas During Breast Augmentation Minimal stretching of the areolas probably occurs to some degree in the majority of breast augmentation patients. This stretching in the presence of enlarged breasts following breast augmentation may not even be noticed by the average patient. However, in some cases this stretching can be significant and extremely bothersome to patients. Several factors are associated with areola stretching. These include large implant size, sub glandular implant position, and poor patient skin tone. When large implants are used in a sub glandular position stretching of the areola is more likely. The elasticity of the patient’s skin is also important. Patients with poor elasticity are more likely to have stretching of their areolas. Also when patients undergo simultaneous breast lift procedures, stretching of the areola is more likely as well. The best way to avoid areola stretching is to avoid these risk factors. Whenever possible smaller implants placed in a submuscular position should be utilized. It’s not unusual for patients to have extremely prominent nipples following breast augmentation surgery. This usually resolves over the course of two to three months and doesn’t usually represent a long term problem. If you’re concerned about this issue consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon is appropriate. This surgeon should be able to make an appropriate recommendation.

Answer: Will Breast Augmentation Stretch the Areola?
In general, if one does not do an out of dimension breast augmentation (excessively large breast implants), the stretching of the areola is not significant.
