Is areola incision a non existent thing now ? Looking for a revision but do not want an incision in the breast fold. (Photos)

Nice18501
Are there any doctors who still specialize I’m periareolar incision still ? I had saline implants placed through nipple/areola incision over 10 years ago . Now I’m looking for a revision and it seems like most doctors only do the incision in the breast fold . I am looking for an implant exchange and reshaping of the breast to bring them closer together . Is it possible to have this done or is that a thing of the past ..… besides for silicone implants which may require a larger incision I don’t understand why doctor would prefer the fold incision when the areola incision is much easily camoflouged.. a 2inch incision under my breast is a deal breaker for me especially since my current incision healed so well is non existent u can barely notice it
