I'm interested in getting a Breast lift and areola reduction. Are these procedures usually done together? Would I have scars or lose sensation in the areola afterwards?
Answer: The Bellesoma Method Thank you for your question, The Bellesoma Method is a current technique to lift and/or reduce breasts without using implants or the ugly vertical scars. The incisions are hidden around the areola and in the inframammary crease. The vertical incision has been completely eliminated. The areola incision heals almost invisibly due to the fact that there is hardly any tension on the closure. With this particular technique, ducts are preserved along with nerve supply maintaining nipple sensation and the ability to breast feed. The areolas are reduced to normal size at the same time. Because the breast is reshaped internally and is secured to your chest muscles, upper pole fullness is possible without an implant. Attached is a patient who underwent The Bellesoma Method. Please note that her tissue was used to create upper pole fullness and cleavage without any foreign materials (mesh, implants, etc). It is a proprietary technique that only surgeons that have been trained by me can perform. I hope this helps. Best wishes and kind regards, Dr. Gary Horndeski

Answer: Simultaneous Breast Lift and Areola Reduction Yes, breast lift surgery and areola reduction are performed together fairly often. It is essentially up to the patient’s discretion whether or not she wants to have the size of the areola reduced, but it is often recommended to make the breasts look more aesthetically pleasing. In terms of losing sensation in the areola, while it is possible, you should not let this slight possibility deter you from this potentially life-altering surgery. As long as you choose a board certified and experienced surgeon, you can rest assured that you will most likely regain all sensation.

Answer: Can I combine a Breast Lift with an Areola Reduction? It is very common to reduce or correct the #areola during a Breast Lift. In addition to #sagging, women with #asymmetric or enlarged nipples or areolae (pigmented areas around nipples) are also candidates for a breast lift.

Answer: Two-in-One Surgery Yes, it is indeed possible to have an areola reduction performed at the same time as your breast reduction. This is something you should bring up to your doctor in the visits leading up to your surgery, so that he or she can better determine what can be done to make your breasts look more aesthetically pleasing while still working in a reasonable range. And, if all goes according to plan, you should also maintain nipple sensation after the surgery.

Answer: Breast lift with areola reduction? When I perform a breast lift I typically decrease the diameter of enlarged areolas. It improves the proportions of the breast to achieve a more ideal shape. Almost all patients maintain nipple sensation.
