Am I a good candidate for areola reduction? (Photo)

February 23, 2024
Asked By:IPJL in Coffeyville, Kansas

After breastfeeding three kids my areolas has become bigger than they used to be, also they used to be round but now they're kind of oval. Would I be a good candidate for areola reduction and harmonisation ? I heard that the areola can stretch out again and become larger than before surgery and more uneven? Is that a risk for me, or would it be OK because my areolas aren't huge? I only want them maybe 5mm smaller (they're currently 5cm in diameter, I'd like them to be 4.5cm)
