    areola reduction the only way?

    hey guys. I have had "puffy nips" for years now since I was very overweight when I was younger and lost weight dramatically and was left with loose skin and puffy areolas. Thats why I started lifting when I was 16 and even tried juice once (didnt affect or cause more puffy nip appearance since i used pct). Im 18 now and I am so self concious about it I feel I have to do something about it to be happy. If any one knows if areola surgery is the only way please let me know. Thank you.

    Pics are the only way to tell, hard to guess what you are talking about.

    U may want to go see a Dr. and have them removed. I just had a bro have the surgery and hes happy with the results. Good luck!

    more on the puffy nips

    i dont think i have gyno because i have had it since I was pretty fat wen i was younger. I read that this problem can occur at puberty and i talked to my doctor and he said theres no breast tissue just the loose skin with the puffy nips and maybe a lil fat like right behind the nipple. what do you think? surgery??

    Id go see another Dr. and get a couple of opinions. If ur not happy and surgery can help, why not? My buddy didnt have gyno either and he had it done and hes happy with the results.

    If I were you I'd wait. I had puffy nipples when I was younger, I dont remember if they went away at 18 or after that but they are completely gone now. I'd wait it out a few more years.

    Have the doc write a letter to your insurance company to see if they'd cover part of the op.

    Ive had the same problem, since I was 7th grade. been lifting since high school, has helped. It just the nipples become puffy, no breast tissue, and they go back to looking normal when they are cold, duh. there are pics of them on some medical site. lemme see. il be 20 in august, like he said, this is a very annoying thing, doesnt help with the self esteem or being self conscious.

    thats sorta what its like, for myself it is more extreme, the areloas are more puffed out for me. kinda sucks.
