Female puffy areola only one side, what can be done?

December 17, 2018
Asked By:cleziux

As the title states, I am a 24 year old that has had one puffy nipple that developed at the age of about 16. I do not have children, and have a 5', 95 lb frame. My breasts are a size B-C, but I am not happy with the puffiness of the areola and shape of my left breast, which is a bit tuberous. When cold/stimulated, the puffiness of the areola constricts and flattens and the breast becomes a rounder, more flattering shape like my right breast and I am much happier with it. What are my options?
