How realistic is it to expect my nipples to point in the same direction? (Photos)

Asked By:RaleighBA in Raleigh-Durham, NC

Hello! I'm considering breast augmentation due to the asymmetrical/tubular breasts I have. I'm wondering how realistic it is to expect my nipples to point in the same direction, be on the same plane, and my areolas to match (or close to matching). Also, I've went to a consult where I was told they would raise the bigger breast's nipple to match and do silicone over the muscle. Thanks in advance!
