Breast reduction is one of the most complex cosmetic breast procedures someone can undergo. Due to this, people often want to know what to expect during and after the procedure. The actual surgical technique can vary depending on the patient’s anatomy and needs. One of the major variations is that sometimes the nipple requires repositioning via a nipple graft while other times it can be moved along with the breast tissue. In a similar vein, patients sometimes ask, “Can they make your nipples smaller during breast reduction?”
Yes, the nipple can often be reduced in size during a breast reduction. It is best to perform this procedure if already performing a free nipple graft breast reduction. This makes it easier to reshape the nipple and/or reduce it as necessary instead of attempting to do so while also reducing the breast size.
However, regardless, Dr. Sessa can perform a nipple reduction during a breast reduction. Based on your anatomy and needs, he will create a personalized surgical plan to help you achieve the ideal results for both procedures.
