Areola reduction. Can this be done in the office? Could I do it right away? (Photo)

Asked By:lorrenzia in Texas, TX

I am three weeks post op, I had a crescent lift and implants. I am pleased with how fast my scars are healing, but hate the different sizes of my areolas and how big the left one is. When I bend forward they hang off the implants with a little bit of my breast tissue. Would reducing them help with that? Can this be done in the office and could I do it right away? Also my nipples and areolas are not retracting when they get hard now, will that come back? Can the bumps on areola be removed?
