First my Dr. is amazing! But I just can’t get used to my nipples being so high! We did the skin tightening underneath and yet I think they still sit high. If i want to show any cleavage i really can’t cause the top of the areol sits right there. There’s zero boob on top to be pushed up if that makes sense cause the areola is just there. Is there anything that can lower the areola complex? I know about scarring but i don’t know what else to do. I love the feel of them just want the nipples lower.

Answer: Revision breast procedure. You would do very well with an aggressive revision mastopexy. The breasts would be rounder, more upper pole fullness and the nipple/areolas more centrally located. Dr. Taranow

Answer: Candidacy for tertiary mastopexy? Hi and welcome to our forum!From your photos, I note that your nipples ride high on the breast mounds. The distance from the top of the breast bone to the nipples appears normal (equilateral triangle with the top of the breast bone) , but the distance from the nipples to the fold beneath the breasts is increased. It appears that you have a dropout of your breast tissue below the nipple areolar complexes and you have lost superior pole breast volume as a result. You may be a candidate for a tertiary infraareolar mastopexy revision to further tighten the lower pole in both vertical and horizontal directions. Lowering the nipple areolar complex will potentially result in significant unfavorable scarring.Revisit your plastic surgeon for evaluation and discussion.Best wishes...
