In my quest for bigger areolas this is what came up with so far!, I'll try adding or eliminating ASAP, I welcome others to add what they've tried, whatever the case may be.

* The average size of the female areola is 38.1 mm-(1.5 inches) and up to 100 mm (4inches). The average male has 25 mm (1 inch) http://wikipedia.org/wiki/Areola

* Aerola sizes and shapes http://www.007b.com/nipple_gallery.php

Nipple suction does NOT make the areola larger, just the nipple itself. It usually makes the areola smaller by enlarging the nipple. :/ So this may just be a genetics thing, something out of our control. Not sure. If someone DOES have a way to enlarge the areolas, that'd be GREAT, but if not, I guess I can make due with I have anyway.

Post: #8RE: How to get a bigger areola!? 
You might also checkout certain tattoo artists that specialize in nipple/areola reconstruction after breast cancer surgery. These artists are not the same ones you'll see in tattoo shops but actually work with doctors and surgeons. The cost (at least here in CO) is around $300. I understand that the good artists can do a remarkable job and that the look can be very natural and realistic (even a 3D appearance).

* Cocoa butter http://www.breastnexus.com/showthread.php?tid=5199

* progesterone cream around the outsides od areolas (from my own experience)

* lemon water / green tea (in combination) seems to offer good results


* Does some of this work????....well that's what the challenge is for....to find something that works.....or doesn't.

My suggestion would be to compare and contrast the regimes, ages, etc. of the members who have succeeded in attaining larger areolas. I suspect age and genetics are the two most prominent factors that influence areola size. My thoughts are that areola coincides with breast growth. If you're getting breast development, areola growth should follow assuming you got age and genetics going for you.

Besides myself, smallfry is another one who has achieved major noticeable areola growth. We're both in our 20s and both obtained areola growth fairly early on in our regimes.

I'd be up for that!....My sizes have been posted-but again (2 in. areolas, 9 1/2 in. cup).

That and 4 little hormones help!- Estrogen, Progesterone, Prolactin, Growth hormone

I think your younger age compared to the older guys here couldn't hurt considering that growth hormone's starts to slow down after the age of 25. http://hgh.bz/HGH_Decline.php

I can think of only one of whom who has had huge areola growth here, but it's not my place to call that person out, any guesses?

But that's not to say that others haven't achieved sizable growth as well.

I can tell you for certain that suction devices did not increase mine one bit..... been trying it for years...

Karren, I remember you mentioned 'scarring' as a way to make the areolas appear larger. How is that done? Is there a down side?

I forgot I owed you an explanation .... I darted by drawing them on with permanent markers.... a mix of purple and brown are pretty close though the aren't permanent on skin. and the come off on clothing... then using an exacto blade and sand paper I went over the area and made tiny aerations which scabbed up.... multiple times.... and I found out if you pump your breasts before they heal completely it makes them darker and deeper.... the same color as my natural nipples..... been almost a year and they still haven't lightened.... kind of drastic?

[GoneGirl]

Isn't it interesting, Karren, how much our breasts mean to our self image? I mean, in most cases, we don't exhibit our areolas to anyone, except one's partner (who may not be impressed anyway), but knowing that they are a certain size is very important to us none the less.

BTW, Karren, I know you've achieved C-cup breasts, but I couldn't find a photo in the Pictures section. Just curious to see your areolas.

CK,

I like your humor, and thank you for your earlier comment. It's been mentioned before, but keeping your NBE kit (stash) out of view even if they know about it, seems endless. (But something else we don't exhibit)

Hormones
The first thing to know is that breast development varies a great deal from person to person. Also while both age and genetics play a big role in how big they will get, generally speaking trans women can expect to be smaller then their closest female relatives (I was told a cup size smaller).

Besides the actual physical size of the breast, perception must be taken into consideration as well. The fact that the rib cage for the average anatomical male after puberty is bigger then it is for females means if you visually compare the two people with similar height, weight and bra size; one cissexual and one transsexual, the cissexual woman's breasts will generally appear larger. Also remember breast size in cissexual women varies greatly and not all cis woman have large breasts. I have small breasts and well... I like them.
