Areola Reduction Surgery

Areola Reduction Surgery is a cosmetic procedure that reshapes and reduces the diameter of the areola — the pigmented area surrounding the nipple. Whether the areolas are naturally large, asymmetrical, or stretched due to pregnancy, weight changes, or breastfeeding, this surgery helps restore proportion, symmetry, and confidence in your chest or breast appearance.

What Areola Reduction Can Treat

·         Overly large or wide areolas

·         Uneven or asymmetrical areola size

·         Stretched areolas after pregnancy or breastfeeding

·         Disproportion between the areola and the breast size

·         Aesthetic dissatisfaction or self-consciousness

Benefits of Areola Reduction Surgery

·         Restores natural, proportional areola size and shape

·         Improves overall breast or chest symmetry

·         Boosts confidence and comfort in intimate or social situations

·         Minimal downtime and long-lasting results

·         Can be combined with breast lift, augmentation, reduction, or gynecomastia surgery

·         Suitable for both women and men

Who Is a Good Candidate?

You may be a good candidate for areola reduction surgery if:

·         You are unhappy with the size or shape of your areolas

·         You experience embarrassment, discomfort, or dissatisfaction

·         You are physically healthy and not currently breastfeeding

·         You have realistic expectations about the outcome

Procedure Overview

·         Performed under local or general anesthesia

·         Typically takes 30 to 60 minutes

·         A circular incision is made around the outer edge of the areola

·         Excess pigmented skin is removed, and the area is sutured for a natural look

·         Stitches are placed carefully to minimize visible scarring

Recovery & Results

·         Mild swelling and sensitivity for a few days

·         Return to daily activities within 1–3 days

·         Stitches dissolve or are removed within a week or two
