11 months post op Areola Reduction, I feel like I was botched. What can I do? (photos)

Question

Hello everyone, this is very hard for me to do but I have come to such despair that I feel I need to. Just over 11 months ago I had an areola reduction on my 34e natural breasts. I do not know what to do anymore. I am willing to do whatever it takes and pay as much money as need to sort my breasts out. I think my breasts were probably to large & saggy to have an areola reduction on its own. I am happy to have uplift and implants if this could help. Surgeon used perrment stitches. Please help :(

People who are candidates for areola reduction are those who like the size and shape  of their breasts but just want the areola smaller. Studies have shown that the ideal diameter of the areola should be 42mm across. This is an average and ideal for you may be smaller or larger depending on the overall dimensions of the breast.If you want to be lifted or smaller, then you must have a lift.There are lifts that have a scar only around the areola - some good, some not so good. My favorite is the Goes lift. This lift can be performed for mild reductions and lifts and includes an internal mesh for durability.For more information on breast surgery, read my book " Cosmetic Breast Surgery - a complete guide to making the right decision from A to double D".
