Hi, I am a 23 year old female to male transgender who has been on testosterone injections for over a year. I would like to know, if nipple reduction (in length) can be done together with keyhole mastectomy at the same time. I just want my embarrassingly elongated and protruding nipples to be flush and as flat ad possible. My areolas are very small as well. I am within healthy weight range, low body fat and very active in sports. A doctor told me its impossible due to threat of infection
