Widely Spaced Areolas
Everyone's anatomy is unique. For some women in Sacramento, breast surgery planning includes a strategy for handling a special condition such as widely spaced areolas.
Women who have widely spaced areolas often have a round rib cage as well. If this is the case for you, your breasts may point a bit more outward than many other women's breasts and you may have less cleavage. When discussing breast augmentation, you and your plastic surgeon must choose your breast implants wisely and take your anatomy into consideration.
In an ideal situation, when an implants are placed behind the breast they're positioned directly behind the areolas - centered on them, in fact. For patients with widely spaced areolas, breast implants are usually placed slightly medial to the nipple to prevent creating too wide a gap between the breasts.
If you need a breast lift in Sacramento, whether with or without implants, your nipples can actually be moved toward the center during your procedure. If you are having breast augmentation alone, your nipples can't be repositioned.
