Gyno Surgery did not reduce size of areola. Is this normal?

lalala33
I had gyno surgery conducted about 6 months ago. My chest as a whole does look better, but my areola did not decrease in size. I I was under the impression that your areola alway decreases in size after this surgery. While I can now wear many shirts I could not wear before, I am still uncomfortable taking off my shirt in public because of the size of my nipple or areola to be quite exact. Would I be able to get an areola reduction? Would this leave alot off scarring since I did get gyno surgery?
