I want my breast reduction but i also want to keep my nipple piercing! i was told I could have complications with my nipples after the surgery.
Answer: Nipple piercings Your nipple piercings would need to be removed for the surgery. Once you have healed from surgery and cleared by your surgeon you can elect to have them re-pierced if you wish.

Answer: I’m getting a reduction and I have nipple piercings. I’ve had them for 10 months now. Can I keep them after the reduction? For safety reasons, because the piercings are near the surgery site, you will want to remove them. Get in touch with your PS and anesthesiologist to determine when the nipple piercings have to be removed. Your PS will tell you when it is safe to reinsert the piercings after your breasts have healed.

Answer: Nipple piercings Thanks for your question! You really should leave them out for at least a week to reduce the risk of infection. At that point, they will likely close and re-piercing would be something you’d have to consider. Many patients opt to keep them out after surgery. Good luck!
