Should I Get an Areola Reduction or Breast Lift/enlargement? (photo)

Dear Georgia, thank you for your question. I understand your concern for the size of your areolas, although perfectly normal if you have lost some degree of weight, and some degree of ptosis/sagginess of your breasts. However I agree with the other colleagues: if you are considering having children in the next 2 to 3 years, you might want to post-pone any breast surgery as the outcome after the pregnancy would be unpredictable. If on the other hand, you are not planning to have children for many more years, than a mastopexy / uplift and areola reduction might have to be considered to enhance the shape of your breast. Best step forward is to see an experienced plastic surgeon to be assessed in person.

All the best.

Your breasts are perfectly natural and normal.  I understand if you are unhappy with the droopiness of the nipples and a bit of lax skin after weight loss. If you are happy with the size of your breasts, you can consider a breast lift to reduce the areolar size and lift the nipples.    Adding implants would increase the size of your breasts and add projection to the upper portion.    It is best to seek a consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon who specializes in breast surgery to view pictures and review your options.  Good luck!

HI there

 

Thank you for your post. Your breasts are entirely normal but you do have slightly large areolae as well as some ptosis (medical term for degree of droopiness). There are a number of procedures to reduce your areolae/uplift your breasts/ enlargement and combinations thereof but as you are young and have not had children I think you must think about things carefully. If after this you are keen to consider surgery please get in touch with your local plastic surgeon.
