Do NOT get a donut mastopexy /areola reduction

I always disliked my areola. They were oblong and sat too low on my otherwise perky breasts. I got a donut mastopexy from a surgeon in Toronto with a permanent suture. When the surgeon was performing it, he said, "you're actually an ideal candidate for this procedure" because I needed minimal lift, and my breasts weren't big/heavy.

The surgeon left them too large for my liking even though they were smaller than the original, and a year later, despite being an ideal candidate and taking excellent care of them, they have stretched to be larger than the original, with a white ring of scar tissue around them.

I highly recommend getting a lollipop mastopexy instead, which prevents the stretching. It's what I will pursue next if I choose to undergo another surgery.

Feel free to message/comment with any questions!
