I am in my mid-twenties with E Cup breasts and very large areolas. It is mostly the areola which is causing me distress. I have not been pregnant or breastfed, they've always been big while the nipple itself is small. I want the opinion of professionals; do you think they will look more proportionate and lifted with just the areola reduction, or would I also benefit from a full lift? What do you think would yield the best shape and results?
Answer: Breast lift or reduction I think you would benefit most from either a breast lift or breast reduction depending on whether or not you want to reduce your breast volume as well. Either way, your areolas will be reduced so that they're proportionate. Schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon in your area to discuss your options. My best,

Answer: Breast Lift or Areolar Reduction? Hi there,Thank you for your question.I would personally recommend a breast lift with a lollipop scar approach over just a areolar reduction procedure in order to achieve an elegant surgical outcome with best proportion between size & shapes between your breasts and nipple areolar complex.Doing just an areolar reduction with a peri-arealar incision can potentially "squash down" your breast projection due to its intrinsic "purse string" effect. There will also be potentially higher risk of "areolar spreading" as there is less control in minimising the amount of post operative stretch on your resultant scars.While a proper breast lift procedure with or without changing the breast volume would allow a more optimal distribution of your breast tissue with reference to both your nipple positions and dimensions. The areolar reshaping is also an integral part of the breast lift operation in allowing better long term control for maintaining the ideal proportion between your nipples and your breasts.Hope that helps.Best wishesEllis Choy

Answer: #breastreduction Hi. I am assuming that you like the size of your breasts as you have not mentioned having a reduction. E cup breasts are larger than average so my suggestion would be to have a small to moderate breast reduction. You would be suitable for a minimal scar vertical reduction (Lollipop scar) which would also reduce the size of the areolas as well. Regards Damien
