Would having a nipple reduction will effect breastfeeding in the future?

Asked By:Anonymous201

I'm 24 years old and have no kids. I'm scheduled to have a breast augmentation in a few months and am considering getting a nipple reduction too. I do not mind the size of my Areola, but my nipple is quite long. I would like to breastfeed in the future if I have kids, and was wondering if having a nipple reduction will effect breastfeeding in the future?
