I am 21 years old, 135lbs, no pregnancies. I am very unhappy with the look and shape of my areolas. I want a smaller more youthful look, but would rather wait to get a mastopexy later, after pregnancy. Am I a good candidate for a nipple surgery procedure?

Answer: Areola reduction surgery If you are only concerned about the shape of your areolae, then areola reduction surgery may be a suitable option for you. This would reshape/resize the areolae to make them proportionately pleasing.

Answer: Areola reduction In your case since you do not have very large breasts that are heavy, you may be a good candidate for areolar reduction. However, you need to understand that doing this procedure in breasts like yours is a type of mastopexy. It’s just that the incision is circular rather than lollipop or anchor-shaped. It would give you a lovely result for a while. After a certain period of time, or with changes in weight or pregnancy, the areolas are likely to widen again.

Answer: Areola Reduction Thank you for your question.Areola correction is a local anaesthetic procedure unless it’s combined with a more complex breast surgery that requires a general anaesthetic. Prior to surgery our plastic surgeons will assess you and your desire to achieve the look, shape, size and symmetry of what you are looking for.On the day of your surgery our cosmetic surgeon will measure your breast height and various distances from your areola as well as the diameter of each. We make marks on your breasts while you are sitting upright and then numb the area with small amount of local anaesthetic.Extra areola skin can be removed to achieve the desired look and position. The scars are very fine and heal quickly and fade over time. In some people the scar can be touched up with medical tattooing to hide the visible signs of a surgical scar.Simple dressing is then applied before you are discharged from the clinic. You can resume daily showers and are expected to see your plastic surgeon in a week to check the wound.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.All The Best
