Answer: Nonsurgical Areola Reduction Surgery
There is no method of Nipple Areolar reduction without a surgical procedure. Furthermore, if liposuction is used to reduce the breast size you will still be forced to deal with sagging skin due to loss of breast volume and skin elasticity.

Answer: Areola Reduction?
Thank you for the question.
Areola reduction involves circumferentially removing areola skin around a smaller areola design. This procedure can be done under local or general anesthesia. It is often done as part of a brest augmenation/lift, breast lift or breast reduction procedure.
Patients should be aware that despite best efforts scarring will be visible and potentially abnormal ( possibly thick, raised and/or pigmented). Some areola asymmetry may also be present after surgery. Their is a small chance that a patient may lose sensation.
As with all plastic surgical procedures, patients must weigh the potential benefits against the potential risks/complications while making decisions.
You will be best served to seek treatment by a board-certified plastic surgeon (check with the American Society of Plastic Surgeons) who can demonstrate a significant level of experience with the procedure you are planing. You can ask to see his/her before-and-after pictures and to potentially meet with patients who've had similar surgery.
I hope this helps.
