Areola asymmetry. Is it worth fixing it?

April 13, 2014
Asked By:Alexag92 in Bay Area, CA

Hello, Due to one of my chest walls protruding, my aereola (shown on the right) sticks out differently than the other (this pic is taken 10 months after my BA with CC). I will be getting surgery for the CC and my PS also suggested to move the aereola on the left, higher up to match the one on the right. Do you think it will be worth it, meaning it will make my aereolas a little more symmetrical than they are now?
