“Leftover” areola along scar.

Dr. Pappas said he will fix the asymmetrical nipple on the right for free, but seems unconcerned about the unsightly areola skin on my scars. Should my old areolas not have been totally removed except for the “new” nipples/areolas? I haven’t seen any other patients pics look like this and now I just hate my breasts. I’m so discouraged.

My breast are 2 different sizes and my left sits lower and is fuller. I had my reduction done 2 years go on February 16th. I went back to my surgeon and at first he said they were fine thy looked great, but clearly I was not happy and told him I was not happy. He finally agreed to fix it and I was supposed to have surgery last January but ended up having to have a total hysterectomy. So I went back last week and he told me because I had gained weight now both breast needed to have Lipo on the sides and it would now cost me $4,500.. which I don't have so I called back to his office and told his nurse we are going to go with the original plan because I m trying to loose weight, so here won't be a need to fix both. I know how you feel about your breast mine bother me lol the time. I hope you get yours fixed like you want them.

Left side is considerably bigger than the right. Nipples are totally different in position, size and shape. On my left breast it looks like part of the scar area is actually part of my old nipple. It has the same consistency and color as that type of skin. :-(

My next follow up is in February. Hopefully he’ll offer solutions. I feel like he should be willing to fix this. I’m a very reasonable person, but I haven’t seen anyone else have this kind of result.

Still very sad about the nipples. They don’t look anything alike. Not sure if anything can even be done.

Your doc should be offering you a solution or revision since it's their work. I'd inquire about it!
