There is an operation which will restore a pleasing size and balance to the areola and allow for a proportionate augmentation with an implant. The operation is known as a periareolar mastopexy or a periareolar breast lift.
If you are considering breast augmentation surgery, it is important for you to realize that breast implants alone will not solve every breast problem. If I were to describe the ideal patient for breast augmentation surgery, she would have a relatively well-toned breast structure with very little of what plastic surgeons refer to as ptosis. The word is pronounced with a silent “p” and is perhaps a gentler way of saying, “sagging” or “drooping.”
