I had a pretty bad case of tuberous breasts so I had them corrected surgically about 4 months ago. I'm pretty happy with the shape, however my areolas are way too big. Is there a way to fix this?
Answer: Areolae Yes, they can be made smaller and may need permanent sutures to prevent stretching. Please discuss this with your surgeon.

Answer: Large areolas can be corrected Dear Angieliina, tuberous breasts always tend to leave big areoles, even after a normal breast lift. There are different ways to prevent that kind of size after breast lift: one is to add a vertical scar, which is taking away a part of the tension from the areolas and by doing that preventing them to get bigger in size afterwards. Another option is to use special sutures, which stabilise the size. However, to give You the best advice in Your specific case it would be necessary to get more information or even to do a consultation.

Answer: Is there a way to fix large areolas after breast lift? Hello @Angieliina, thank you for your question. Yes it is possible to reduce the size of the areolas. If you have already undergone a breast lift surgery and are now concerned about the size of your areolas, it is possible to revise the procedure for a more proportionate areola. However, it is important to wait at least 6 months to 1 year after the initial surgery to ensure that the tissues have healed. I link a video to shed more light. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD, FACS.

Answer: Fix large areola after breast lift Hello ! Yes, there is a way to fix this. Areola reduction surgery is a common procedure that can be done to reduce the size of the areolas. This is typically done in conjunction with breast augmentation, breast reduction, or breast lift surgeries. During the procedure, the surgeon will make an incision around the outer edge of the areola and remove a small amount of tissue. The remaining tissue is then reshaped and sutured back into place, resulting in a smaller areola with a more aesthetically pleasing shape. It's important to discuss your concerns with your surgeon and see if areola reduction surgery is a viable option for you. They will be able to provide you with more information about the procedure and help you determine if it's the right choice for your individual needs and goals. I hope this helps, best of luck !

Answer: Areola Yes, large areolas can be downsized through an areola reduction. You will want to wait a few more months before considering surgery. Once fully healed from the lift it can be done.
