I am in Las Vegas, and am a 31 year old female with a moderate degree of ptosis and a large areolas. At this point I am only interested in areola reduction. I am in the process of losing 15 lbs and know that my boobs will shrink as they did before when I lost similar amount of weight. Looking for a surgeon in Las Vegas who would perform only an areola reduction under local anesthesia. How much would it cost for the procedure? Thanks in advance! (Sorry for the quality of the picture).

Answer: Areolar reduction in Las Vegas Anthea, I do practice here in Las Vegas and would be happy to see you and discuss your options. It sounds as though it is the size of your areola that bothers you more than anything else but having your areola made smaller will not significantly change your breast shape. You have some laxity and would benefit from a breast lift with or without an implant. It would be best to meet with you to go over your exam, what your concerns are and then review your options.

Answer: Cost of areola reduction It is rare to just do an areola reduction alone. Usually it is part of a more complete lift or it is part of a periareolar augmentation mastopexy. It is technically possible but it won't improve the shape of your breats at all, only a real lift will do that. The costs will vary but I would think in the $2500-3500 range would be reasonable.
