Are my areolas and nipples lighter after augmentation/lift and implants? (Photos)

Hi chrismeme, The darkening of the areola during pregnancy is associated with the hormones. After breast augmentation, however, the areolas become slightly stretched and may appear light colored. If you do not become pregnant again, your areola color will likely remain the same. Daniel Barrett, MD, MHA, MS

It is common to develop increased skin pigmentation during pregnancy. The exact mechanism of this change is not known, but it commonly affects the nipple-areolar complex and the midline abdominal skin. Typically after pregnancy, this fades back to your baseline pigmentation. If you become pregnant again, it is possible that you would experience the same increased skin pigmentation. However, I would not expect any skin pigmentation changes in the peri-operative period. 

Hello dear!
Thanks for the question and provided information as well.
The areolas turn lighter after surgery, due to some slight stretching during the process. If you don't get pregnant again, they should remain this color.
If you have any concerns, please follow up close with your plastic surgeon.
Good luck :)
