Can something be done about my areola , they have continued to grow in size I am 25F, I want a reduction?
Answer: Can Something be Done About my Extremely Big Areola? 25F, & They Continue to Grow Thank you for your question and photos. It is a bit difficult to say without an exam or measurements. It sounds like you want the nipple areola complex (NAC), to be smaller. Yes, I think that you can have this done. You may also benefit from the breast lift, or a reduction. Each of the lifting techniques typically will involve an incision line around the NAC, (areolar reduction). The amount of lifting typically will determine the incision lines, (scars). Examples of the types of incision lines are; Doughnut, Lollipop, Anchor. The scars typically look most red at 4 months, and then better at 10 months. With a breast lift, or reduction, you have the opportunity to make the NAC smaller. Most women want the NAC to be about 4 cm in diameter. Best to talk with your Board Certified Plastic Surgeon. Together you can make a plan that suits you best.

Answer: Areola size in the normal course of a breast reduction, the areola are usually narrowed. Sometimes, when they are too wide, they may have to be revised with a very small procedure under local anesthesia, to remove any extra outline pigment. this is done usually after about six months or a year from the original surgery.
