Is there a procedure to smoothe very bumpy nipples (Montgomery glands) surgically and re-positioning areolas? (Photo)

rayje1
Building off an older post, I too have cosmetic issues with my Montgomery glands. I want to know if there is a surgical way to smooth out the areola/nipple area and if this can be done during my breast augmentation procedure. Also, is there a way to "re-position" my areolas to face straighter ahead and if there is anything I need to consider with these procedures. I've included a picture of the bumpy areolas and of my current nipple position.
