Nipple & Areola Surgery

About the surgery

Understanding nipple & areola surgery

Nipple surgery is often performed to address the concerns associated with enlarged, asymmetrical, protruding or inverted nipples.

These issues may have significant functional and/or cosmetic concerns.

Nipple surgery may be performed as an isolated procedure or in combination with other breast surgeries. In most cases surgery involves minimal scarring.

Areolar issues generally relate to them being ‘too large’. This is often associated with breast ptosis (droop) that requires surgery to perform a breast lift (mastopexy) or conditions such as tuberous breasts that requires reconstructive surgery including reducing areolar size.
