Can I still get a breast augmentation if I have a third nipple? (Photo)

May 8, 2016
Asked By:Laurens91 in Myrtle Beach, SC

I have a third nipple perfectly in the crease under my right breast. It's something that I'm actually very attached to as all the women in my family have one. I would want silicone implants and to my knoledge they can only be inserted through the areola or underneath the breast in the crease? I feel my areoles wouldn't even be large enough to fit an implant through, I think they a pretty small. Just wondering if there would be any options for me other than just going ahead and removing it??
