Nipples too high after breast reduction. Can it be fixed? (Photo)

August 28, 2015
Asked By:klharris90 in United Kingdom, GB

I am 25 years old and recently had a breast reduction (was done on the 27th July 2015 to be exact) so far I've healed ok apart from a small infection on my right breast. Oneed thing that's been bothering me is that I feel that my nipples are too high. What could they do to rectify this and what would I be left with (scar wise). This is a photo from when the glue was still on and about 3 weeks after as i haven't had the guts to take anymore.
