Areola reduction?

Hi girls. I'm having revision in August or September and I was wondering wethe I should ask for an areola reduction. I used TO HAVE small nipples. And they got bigger which I liked much they seem to have stretched even bigger lately. Because I'm going bigger again with implan m guessing they will stretch even more?! With the reduction do the surgeon decide on the correct size or? Sorry I'm all new to the reduction thing lol x

I'm not sure but iv just had an uplift...yet to see my nipples as still got dressings on. I did ask surgeon what he does re my nipple though...as in will thy be the same and he sais they hv like a cookie cutter (gross but u get the idea) that gives them a standard size and shape, think he said 4cm...does that sound about right?!

Hi,
I have seen a BA op on TV where they had areola reduction & it is a surgical version of a cookie cutter they don't cut into areola with it though it just marks the skin so the surgeon has a perfect round guide to cut whilst operating. Good luck wishes for your re op let us know how it all goes.XXX
