Areola Reduction: The Surgery for Smaller Nipples & Areolas

You can have a nipple or areola reduction on its own, but these procedures often go hand-in-hand with breast reductions, lifts, or implants. Dr. Salazar breaks down the difference between your nipples and areolas, how surgery can make them smaller, and what to expect with scars and aftercare. Find out if you can breastfeed after a nipple reduction, whether men can get these procedures, and what accessory nipples, supernumerary nipples, and ectopic nipples are and how we remove them.
