I'm 19 and constantly disgusted with my breasts, and people say they're fine but I'm self conscious about how large my areolas are. I'm super thin and I've never been heavy, so I'm not sure why they're so huge and why my boobs are so saggy. One is also noticeably larger than the other. They are a lot smaller when my nipples are erect, but I still hate them. Is this something that can be fixed on a college student's budget?
Answer: There are options. Thank you for your question. While your breasts are normal in appearance, I think the most important thing is that you are not comfortable with them and that there are options available to you. An areolar reduction is one surgical possibility that would help to reduce the size of your areaolas. You also have some ptosis or droop to the breast, which again is extremely common, and can be corrected with a mastopexy or breast lift to provide you with a perkier and lifted appearance. For the size asymmetries that you describe, I believe that you might be an excellent candidate as well for a breast lift and breast implants in order to provide you with more fullness and firmness to the breasts and to create better size symmetry between your right and left side. I would recommend scheduling a consultation appointment with a board-certified plastic surgeon who is well-experienced in these procedures to review your concerns and the options available to you. Your medical history and specifically your breast size and development history will be an important part of this conversation as well. Many board-certified plastic surgeons offer complementary consultations and different financing options to help make patients cosmetic goals attainable. Best of luck!

Answer: There is hope, it can be "fixed" A breast lift and implants (augmentation mastopexy) can be performed to reduce the diameter of your areolae to a smaller size and at the same time lift your breasts as well as making them a bit fuller/perkier. It appears that you may be a candidate for a "donut" or circumareolar only circular scar to minimize visible scarring.

Answer: Areola Reduction It's important to realize that breasts come in all shapes and sizes. Despite this, it's not unusual for women to be dissatisfied with the appearance of their breasts. In your case, your pictures demonstrate enlarged areolas, breast sag and breast asymmetry. All of these problems can be addressed simultaneously with a mastopexy procedure.If you're considering correction of this problem, consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon is appropriate. This surgeon should be able to formulate a treatment plan that addresses your anatomic findings and aesthetic goals.

Answer: Areolar reduction Your photos do indicate that your areolae are somewhat enraged, and there are several options for you. You can have them reduced as a standalone procedure or part of a breast lift either with or without implants. In either event, reducing them does email scars and you need to determine if the scars are worthwhile for you. Go on a few consults with some plastic surgeos and ask hem to show you photos of other omen similar to you.
