WORTH IT$900
I went through the procedure back in March. Had one side reduced a little more a few months ago. Here are the final results. Thanks for following my progress!

6 mo update
TreeHugger3September 8, 2016
I went for my 6 mo post-op and asked for my left nipple width to be made a little smaller so that it better matched the other side. This procedure included another 5 stitches, but the healing has been pretty easy so far. One more week and I'll be able to quit with the dressings and hopefully be normal again! They are still a little longer than I had hoped for-possibly a miscommunication with my surgeon? We did all surgeries in a non-standard way, as I wanted no visible scarring. This meant that the surgeon had to improvise during surgery, which may have limited the results I could get as well. My scars are white (all unnoticeable on the underside). Therefore, I didn't want to just "chop them" in half length-wise because I would then have a noticeable scar for the rest of my life. I still think the surgery is totally worth it though! I can go bra-less without being embarrassed that my nips look bigger than my boobs!

Thank you so much for posting about your experience. I am scheduled for a nipple reduction this fall (like you, I nursed and now they stick out and end up always looking hard - I have to wear padded bras at all times to disguise them -- ugh!) Question: can you wear thin tops now, or non-padded bras, without your nips showing? I don't want to go through this if I end up with just shorter-but-still-poking-out nipples! Also -- have they remained super sensitive? Were you able to go back to work in a day or two? Huge thanks!

Thanks for reaching out! I would have to say that they are mostly just a shorter version of the same. I wear thin tops without a bra, however, them showing doesn't bother me now that they don't look bigger than my breasts! I returned to work the next day. They still have a pain sensitivity (hurt when bumped all the time), otherwise, they are not sensitive. I hope this helped!

Hello I just had my nipple length reduced yesterday. Not too much pain. My nipples had to be arranged in my bra before. I am a small breasted sporty mum who fed 3 children. I am super excited to see the result. I am looking forward to going bra less.

Awesome! Good luck! I go braless now or wear just bralettes with no wires or padding-so much more comfortable and I don't have to worry about my nips "taking over"! I hope you have a quick recovery and awesome results!

If you get a chance, can you post the final result with and without a t-shirt? That would be really helpful. I'm worried that a reduction will still be very visible after all the pain. Would you recommend doing this separately from a breast augmentation?

Sure-I'll get more pictures up. Keep in mind, the augmentation will also change the projection of the nipples. For that reason, you may want to do the nipples later so that you get the results you really want.

Thanks! I decided right before surgery that I would wait and do it later, and I'm so glad I did! When things got stretched out, the nipples are much smaller, and erect instead of mostly floppy. It would have also been more pain on top of the already painful BA. I was able to go completely without Rx pain meds but I don't know if I could have done it with a nipple reduction, too.

I'm glad it worked out, and that's good to know! I'm still considering BA or fat transfer in the future. But I'm waiting to see more long-term reviews of success with fat transfer :)

Hey I’m sorry just read yes I can but mine sagged they are now just short but still stick out but I don’t mind I wear padding because I’m small
Hope op went well. Same sensitivity yes;)

I feel that I am mostly healed now. I have no 'good' sensations in nipples anymore-but they were barely existant before anyways. If they get bumped, they still hurt at times for a quick second. They are not as identical as I would like, so I will be discussing another surgery with my PS in August to make them match a little better. They look fine, but for my own comfort, I would like a touch up done. Thanks for reading!
