Is Areola Reduction Quick and Inexpensive?

So if you want poor work, unsightly results, and scars that get worse as your breasts swell with pregnancy and breast feeding, go ahead and find someone who does quick, cheap work. You really don't mean that, do you?  You really mean the best possible result for the least cost needed to get that outcome?

Since the areola scars will indeed stretch with additional pregnancy, as will your breast skin, there is a distinct possibility that you may need a breast lift (mastopexy) after another one or more pregnancies. So having any surgery, however fast and cheap, that will be completely redone (and more) with a periareolar, lollipop, modified, or full Wise-pattern mastopexy seems an ill-advised waste to me. If you were able to convince me that it is only a theoretical possibility that you might have another baby, and that you really want to proceed with an areolar reduction now, I could see it appropriate to proceed, but I would be skilled, careful, precise, and take whatever time it took to do my best work. I would be reasonable in my charges, but not "cheap!"

Typically an areola reduction is a straight forward procedure than can sometimes be performed under local anesthesia. There is minimal recovery. The procedure can be performed before or after pregnancy, but be aware that pregnancy and breastfeeding can potentially affect your results. See a board certified plastic surgeon near you to learn more.

Thank you for your question. Please make sure you find a reputable and qualified plastic surgeon who can assess you properly to give you a realistic idea of what outcome you can achieve.  Areola Reduction is performed under local anaesthetic, taking about 1-1.5 hours to perform, costing approximately £1500.  The cost of the procedure and quickiness should not be a priority.  You should choose a surgeon due to his experience with performing areola reductions by accessing his work and reviews made by past patients.All The Best 

There are a variety of treatments for areola reduction depending on the body type of the patient.  Be cautious if is inexpensive because you will be better off going to an expert than saving a little money.

Wait until you are finished having babies or you just might have to redo your surgery. There are a number of factors that are involved in determining the price;

Areolar reduction prices vary greatly because the s a wide range of due to a number of variables including differing techniques that can be performed. My recommendation is to first find a few qualified surgeon  board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery, that you trust, then compare prices between them. 


1. Location - Will it be performed in a hospital with an overnight stay, an independent out- patient facility or a doctors office? (doctor's office is least expensive)

2. Type of Anesthesia - local, IV sedation or General Anesthesia? Will a board certified anesthesiologist or a nurse anesthetist be used, or an RN? (local anesthesia will save you money)
    
      3. Experience and training of your surgeon. The best trained (and longest) would be a surgeon board  certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery
   
      4. Length and Complexity of Surgery - how much will be removed, one or both sides,  will a lift also be done at the same time?, etc.
