Got an areola reduction a year 1/2 ago and I'm okay with the size (wish they were a little bit smaller) but my main concern is how noticeable my scars are and the darker missing pieces of areola my surgeon didn't take off from my original areola reduction. I was going to get another areola reduction, but being scared for this situation to happen again, I was wondering if I should just get scar camouflage tattooing? I feel like my scars are pretty much the same color as my surrounding skin tone
I had chest reconstruction surgery to remove loose skin, my right nipple/areola got covered in black stuff like gunk, and this is what my areola looks like now. I've heard of areola repigmentation, was wondering if this is the correct treatment? Also, how do I find doctors near me who will help me? I live in Virginia Beach, Virginia. I included pics of my normal looking nipple so you can see the difference between the 2. Also, what's the average cost for fixing this issue?
I have one areola which is almost twice as big as the other. My areolas are very very light, is there a way to possibly lighten the one large one to make it appear smaller or is medical tattooing an option? I dont want to go through areola reduction surgery. I scar terribly
Hi there, Im curious following a revision of scars on my areola, which I must say has gone very well. However, my areola is now so perfectly round with precise edges that it looks really quite fake! Like a pepperoni slice lol. I wondered if medical tattooing could perhaps adjust the shape so it doesnt look quite so precisely drawn on ?! Any ideas appreciated! Thanks so much! Lou
I was teased very badly in middle school for the size of the area after I exchanged nudes with a boy, he showed all is friends and everyone called me pepperoni..this continued into high school and has affected my self esteem my whole life- I am now 29. I got tattoos around my areolas in an attempt to hate them less I frequently gain/lose 20-30lbs which has made them look even worse What will my tattoos look like after surgery and will gaining/losing weight affect the appearance?
The areolas have completely stretched out again, and the scar and asymmetry make them even more embarrassing than before. The skin of my areola is very delicate and thin, so I fear that they'll always stretch out, even if I re-do the surgery. Can I get the areola removed entirely, and have my regular skin attached to my nipple? That way they wouldn't stretch out, and i could tattoo my areola on. I would love to feel confident naked.
I am a medium brown and my areolas are a few shades darker (not black or dark brown). They are huge and I want to have normal ones. I saw tattooing/permanent makeup but on websites it says for breast cancer patients/people who have gotten a breast argumentation but can anyone get it done. My overall question is , is it possible that some of my areola can be tattooed the same color as my breast to make smaller ? Is their anything i can do besides surgery? Like a areola repigmentation?
