Can areola bits left out of areola (following reduction) be removed? (Photos)

Asked By:Enthusiastica in McRae-Helena, Georgia

Hi. I have gotten a areola reduction done on July. I like the shape of them now, but there are areola bits left out of the areola, so there’s my areola, then there’s the white scar around it and then there’s areola bits that were “left out” during the reduction. Although they weren’t visible for some time right after the surgery. I went to my surgeon and he said he wouldn’t touch it, that it would be too tricky, not possible to remove them, and that it would happen again. Is he just avoiding it?
