Is it possible to have your areolas and nipples repositioned?

Question

Hello, I wanted to know if it was possible to have your areolas & nipples repositioned. I am happy with the size & shape of my breast, but I don't like that my nipples & areolas point downward. I would love if they could be raised a few inches from where they are. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

It is difficult to answer your question without in person evaluation or set of photos. Moving nipple/areola in a new, higher position and tightening skin envelope is procedure called breast lift. In person consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon is recommended. Good luck.

Dear Short9601,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.

A breast lift will lift your nipples and areolae so they are no longer pointing down. I would suggest meeting with a board-certified plastic surgeon and discussing your options.
