Answer: Nipple asymmetry and size reduction If the nipples are of different sizes, there are procedures that can help make the asymmetry less noticeable. The same goes for areolar asymmetry. I would visit with a board certified plastic surgeon in your area to discuss your concerns and surgical options in more detail.

Answer: Nipple reduction surgery It is common for me to perform nipple reduction surgery to improve the shape or symmetry of the nipples. Usually we are able to perform it under local anesthesia only with minimal discomfort.

Answer: Nipple reduction Dear lady22,There is a nipple reduction procedure to make nipples both smaller and more symmetrical. It is a fairly simple procedure, in experienced hands, which is done under local anesthesia in the office in about 20 minutes. I use the a telescoping technique, whereby the skin is removed at the base and the core is left intact and then the nipple is telescoped down and the skin edges are stitched back together. This elegant technique preserves the nipple sensation an the milk ducts in the major of cases.

Answer: Nipple reduction
Yes it is possible to have your nipple size reduced. There are a variety of techniques that can be used to achieve this objective. I like to use the “sleeve” technique, which leaves the core of the nipple intact thereby improving the chances of preservation of nipple sensation and ability to breast-feed.
Generally, the incisions–scars that result from this procedure heal nicely.
As always, it is your best interest to seek consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon well-trained–experienced in this area. Best wishes.
