My nipples are so strange the picture below shows them when there soft they also shrink and get erect when I’m cold
Hi and thank you for the question. The first thing to point out is that your nipples/areolas are not abnormal. The size is quite normal. On one side your nipple seems to have a bit of projection. On the other side you appear to have some minor nipple inversion. Its hard to tell without profile photos (side view) but it appears that you may have a very small amount of herniation of breast tissue coming out through the areoals, giving them a bit of a puffy look. We see this more dramatically in cases of "tuberous breasts" (which you don't seem to have). Your nipples are relatively high on your breasts but within normal limits. The nipple inversion is easy to fix for most patients in the office setting. It takes about 45 minutes to an hour and is done under local anesthesia. If it is the puffiness of the areolas that bothers you, this too can be addressed. You can use breast lift (mastopexy) techniques to tighten the areolas and reduce their projection. I would suggest that you see a few plastic surgeons in your area that have outstanding reputations for breast surgery. Best of luck.Dr West
