Nipple reduction surgery

The cost of nipple reduction surgery can vary.

There are a number of factors involved in determining the cost for nipple reduction surgery. There are multiple techniques used depending on the size of the nipple both in projection and in width.

Price of nipple reduction surgery

The price of nipple reduction surgery may vary between surgeons and surgery centers. The biggest interments of the price will be the amount of work that is required and how much time the surgery will take. If you only require a small amount of skin excision with minimal work into the breast tissue itself, this may readily be done as an outpatient or an office procedure under local anesthesia. This may help meet your aesthetic goals and also limit costs.

It depends on your anatomy

I would have a hard time giving you a quote without at least seeing a photo of you which certainly does not take the place of an examination. Areolar reduction typically involves an incision around the outside and a smaller circle or diameter marked around the nipple. Most of the time a permanent suture is used around the outside circle to pull it like a drawstring around the smaller areola. I hope this helps. Dr Edwards
