Will Areola Incision Damage Milk Ducts?

Jaz.mn
My doctor seems to have a preference for the Areola incision due to its scar visibility, and he would use the Keller Tube to make it a smaller incision. However, I am younger and still want to breast feed my future children. Will an Areola incision pose a higher risk to damaging milk ducts or nerves than an infra mammary incision?
