Small boobs - does breast augmentation involve making the areola and nipples small? (Photo)

In most cases, areolar and/or nipple reduction procedures can be done at the same time as breast augmentation.

Thanks for your question. No, breast augmentation does not involve making the areola smaller. That would be an areola reduction. Hope this helps. Please always consult with a board certified plastic surgeon. Take care, Dr. Moises Salama, board certified plastic surgeon.

Dear pattysmithredditt,

breast augmentation doesn't include reduction of areola or nipples but that can be done at the same time. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.
