Would scarring look worse after an areola reduction?

September 16, 2014
Asked By:beepboop27 in New Zealand, NZ

I am interested in getting areola reduction later on in life (currently pregnant with number 2) but worry whether the scarring would look worse than the actual areola. I wear a NZ 14JJ bra and my areola is 5-6inch long and about 4in wide. I have never had any cosmetic surgery before, my breasts are natural. I am 21 years old and would also be interested in a breast lift, thanks in advance.
