Why is my right areola growing outside of the new circle shape that my DR stitched after anchor lift and implants? (Photos)

DallTx87
I started out with very large areolas. My DR warned me that because they were so big there might be a chance they would form a triangular shape at the bottom. He was correct. However he wasn't clear as to WHY it did that? I assumed he had cut away the extra aerola and made it smaller. So why would it start to "bleed out"? I had separation at the bottom junction of this breast, maybe that played a part? He has agreed to revise the scar for me by cutting away the triangle shape and restitching it.
