Areola stretch - does this indicate the need for an anchor pattern?

Asked By:Ddrr123 in White Plains, NY

I've had 2 LOLLIPOP lifts with different surgeons. Both times my areola stretched back out, my breast sagged again, and I rejected stitches. I'm going to need a 3rd lift. Does this indicate the need for an anchor pattern? Should I ask for permanent stitches since I'm prone to spitting dissolvable (which in turn has left me with widen scars around the areola)? Because of this I had them tattooed with a scar camouflage which made everything worse so I need to have that removed in the surgery.
