Nipple Reduction

Nipple Reduction

At O’Neill Plastic Surgery, we offer nipple reduction surgery for patients who feel self-conscious or physically uncomfortable due to enlarged or elongated nipples. Whether caused by genetics, hormonal changes, aging, or breastfeeding, prominent nipples can affect clothing choices and overall confidence. This straightforward procedure delivers subtle, natural-looking results while enhancing the proportions of the breast.

About

Nipple reduction is a minor outpatient procedure designed to reduce the size, length, or width of the nipple itself. It can be performed alone or in combination with other breast surgeries, such as breast augmentation, breast lift, or breast reduction. The procedure can also be customized for men experiencing prominent nipples due to gynecomastia or other factors.

Nipple reduction can address:

• Elongated or stretched nipples
• Nipples that appear too wide or prominent
• Asymmetry between the nipples
• Discomfort under clothing or bras

Downtime

Most patients experience little downtime and can resume normal activities within a few days. Post-operative swelling and tenderness are usually minimal and temporary.
