Extra nipple removal - it possible to have these removed easily? (photos)

Question

I am an adult male patient who has two accessory nipples that are symmetrical on both sides of my body about 6-8 inches below my actual nipple. Is it possible to have these removed easily? There doesn’t appear to be any breast tissue below the nipples, but I could be wrong. How much would a procedure like this cost? Thanks!

Dear lvr1996,
based on your photos, it looks like it can be removed under local anesthesia. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.

This is a common problem in both male and female patients, accessory nipples. Simple excision in local anesthesi and small, barely visible scar, would be all what it takes. Good luck.

Yes, your extra nipples can easily be removed in the office under local anesthesia.  this is actually a fairly common procedure for both sexes. The cost may vary depending upon where you live.
