Areolar breasts buds: This could be a minor form of gynecomastia. Please see a Plastic Surgeon to evaluate and offer a surgical game plan if indicated...

Puffy Nipples: If you are overweight, getting to a normal weight may help. If it is gynecomastia (gland) weight loss may make it look worse, If you are normal weight and this is new, waiting a year or two may help. By 17 however, adolescent breast buds should be resolving. If this is gynecomastia or disproportionate fat, there are no pills, creams or injections that work. Surgery is the best and only treatment.
