Is male areola reduction different from female?

May 10, 2016
Asked By:AreolaReductionQ in Honolulu, HI

I am looking in to undergoing areola reduction surgery, but there is only one surgeon in my state who lists male areola reduction as an option. There are many surgeons who do female areola reduction-- would they be a viable option? My areola diameter is about 50mm and I would like to reduce it by at least half. I have a weight of 160lbs at 5'10" so I don't have much fat in my chest. On a separate note, my nipples are also at uneven heights, can this be fixed in the same surgery? Thank you!
