Can the tear drop/oval shape of my nipple be corrected?

FancyFeet808
Hi - had a breast reduction in August 2018. Result was good but now almost 8 months post op my nipple remains oval shaped and disproportionate to my other one. My PS said wait a year to see if it evens out , but it is obvious to me that it will not change from oval to round in the next 4 months... not expecting perfection by any means , but a similar shape to my other one would make it easier to look at everyday .
