Too much was taken away in a nipple reduction. I made a nipple reduction some months ago and it didn't turn out the way I wanted it to be because now I can almost not see them. I asked the doctor to reduce the puffy nippels but she told me nipple reduction would help... so now I still have puffy nippels, without any nippels.

Answer: Male Nipple Reduction Is Irreversible Thank you for your question. Sorry to hear about your experience. The puffy nipples and areolas were caused by mild to moderate gynecomastia. Usually, in a case like yours, treating the gynecomastia reduces the nipple and areolar size without visible scars. Thereafter, if further nipple reduction is desired, a more conservative nipple reduction can be performed. Once a complete surgical nipple reduction is performed in men, it is a permanent result. Injectable fillers or nipple reconstruction will not restore the natural appearance of a male nipple. These techniques can be used to restore nipple size and contour in women because they are larger. My only recommendation would be to consider tatooing of a faux nipple. This will give you the appearance of a normal nipple without the projection that can show through shirts. The results when performed by an experienced tatoo artist are quite impressive. I hope this helps! Best wishes.
