Nipples Completely Different Sizes

Dr. Barrett is very nice and knowledgeable. He has a great beside manner. His staff is kind and professional. It was a first class experience all the way. The problem I had with my breast aug is that my nipples don't match each other- at all. I had a lift done on one side and never once was it mentioned that this would create a different result in terms of size and appearance of the nipple. I was shocked. The nipple with the lift is almost double the size of the other side. When I brought it forward to Dr. Barrett I was very disappointed in his dismissive response. Saying that "nipples are sisters, not twins". I guess. However symmetry is a basic fundamental of beauty and I thought I was getting the best of the best. They were certainly twins before I had surgery. I had much higher expectations from a top Beverly Hills Surgeon that didn't include nipples that are completely different sizes. My breasts look phenomenal in clothes and bathing suits but I hate being nude as all I can see is the difference now. I wish I had gone with a surgeon that does under the breast incisions. Messing with your nipples is not worth it.

I think doctors feel that did the work, they got paid for the hours they worked, and if you want more work you gotta pay. Sorry about the nipples. Life experiences suck sometimes.

Hey there....I want to recommend something....this happened to my friends mom and sometimes I guess it's the way the nipple and areola heals. She ended up paying to have someone tattoo the nipple to match the other one and I was shocked it looked fantastic! Like she blended it out color wise to match and I legit could not tell it was a tattoo!!

This originally happened to be too before I had them fixed. Did you get a benelli lift? (Donut lift) on the nipple that spread?

Yes, that is exactly what caused the problem. He did a full circle incision around the lift and it spread the nipple to 2-3x it's original size. The other nipple looked fine since it was only half the incision/ a cresent shape on the bottom half of the nipple. Dr. Barrett completely dismissed this egregious difference.

I just had a breast lift and my nipples are noticeably different sizes too. I am bummed. I’m disappointed your dr didn’t fix it and assume mine won’t either. I don’t think it will bother me in the long run as they don’t sag anymore but I expected a better outcome for the money I paid.
