I have had an areola reduction surgery twice, but they have stretched back out both times. I followed the instructions and did not lift weight for 5 weeks, then started slowly. My surgeon put in permanent sutures both times but it doesn’t seem to work. I am very unhappy with them. Is there any other way to change the size of the areola? And could it have help to wait even longer before starting weight training? The areolas stretched over a month or two.

The areola can be revised to be made smaller and permanent sutures will be needed, or it may stretch again. You will also need to wear a good supporting bra.
