Question

My areola size is 3 inch in diameter. My husband always making fun and said its ugly. Can i reduce the size. I sent photo also.

Camille Cash, MD · Answer

Areola tissue comes in all different sizes.  You should never consider a surgical procedure to please someone else.  If YOU are interested in having them reduced there is a surgical procedure that can accomplish this. See a board certified plastic surgeon near you to learn more.

Thank you for posting your question.  It is unfortunate that you are becoming self-conscious due to negative comments, so this is something you might wish to discuss with your spouse.  Technically it is possible to reduce the size of the areolae but it is important fully understand the risks and resulting scars before making any decision.  If you want more information I would suggest contacting an experienced local plastic surgeon and arranging a consultation.
