I'm very unhappy with my breasts. I'm 5'2", 140lbs, 32DD. In a bra I love the size and shape of my breasts, but hate them when I take my bra off. I feel that my areolas are too large (9cm diameter) and I'm very embarrassed by them. Can an areola reduction give me the breasts I've always wanted? Is it possible to get the areola from 9cm to 4cm diameter?
