Nipple reduction is a procedure used to reshape nipples that are projecting or to reduce the areola. Some women's nipples may fold or hang down, which can occur during development or through breastfeeding.
Consultation
During your consultation, you will be asked to specify what you would like to see improved. This will help your surgeon understand your expectations and determine whether they can realistically be achieved.
Procedure
Anesthesia: The nipple reduction procedure is usually performed under local anesthesia, and no hospital admission is required.
Process: The specific techniques used will depend on your desired outcomes and will be explained in detail by your surgeon.
After Surgery
Post-Surgery Care: Following nipple reduction, normal activities can usually be resumed when the patient feels comfortable doing so and with the surgeon's advice.
Pain and Discomfort: Any pain or discomfort post-surgery is typically minimal and can be managed with medications if necessary.
Results
Appearance: Patients generally achieve the desired nipple shape and size with minimal complications.
Healing and Follow-up: The surgeon will provide specific instructions on post-operative care and any follow-up visits necessary to monitor healing and ensure optimal results.
Our goal is to make your surgical experience as easy and comfortable as possible.
Complications
Significant complications from nipple reduction are infrequent. Every year, many people have their nipples reshaped, experience no major problems, and are delighted with the results. However, anyone considering surgery should be aware of both the benefits and risks. Your surgeon will discuss these with you during your consultation.
