Breast lift and areola size - is 4cm too big? (photos)

January 29, 2022
Asked By:333E in England, United Kingdom

I’ve booked in for a Bilateral Mastopexy in March. Im a 36DD, 5’4, 25 years old, 11st. I’ve discussed with my surgeon as my areola area is quite large, she’s advised she uses templates between 4cm & 5.5cm, the most common being 4cm. I still feel 4cm is slightly too big, she’s advised I can have them as small / large as I like, but her recommendation of 4cm is due to a more “natural” look and in keeping with the breast. Are you able to advise of the areola sizes on the pictures attached?
