Is a breast augmentation my only way of correcting my breasts?

Your description sounds like you have enlarged areolas A breast augmentation would not help this, as the only thing a breast augmentation does is to give you a larger version of the breasts you already have. To decrease the size of the areolas there is a procedure called a Donut mastopexy which may work well for you. You should see a board certified plastic surgeon in your area as your first step to correcting your concern.

Hi, you didn't say if you have sagging breasts or not. Breast implants just works for augmentation if you have an small breast. If there is ptosis, you can have a breastlift and you ASAPS member plastic surgeon will reduce them as a part of this procedure, otherwise, we have another techniques that will work just to reduce the Aureolas.

If you don't want your breasts to be larger, then augmentation would not necessarily be part of the solution. Perhaps an areolar reduction similar to a Benelli or donut lift would work. An in-person exam is the only way to answer your question so I would suggest that you contact an ASAPS member plastic surgeon in your area..
