Nipple Reduction London

Nipple reduction surgery is designed to achieve a more proportionate appearance of the areola in relation to the breast. The procedure involves removing a circular portion of the outer brown area of the areola before drawing in the surrounding skin to encircle the remaining areola.

Absorbable sutures are placed inside the areola to decrease its diameter, and in most instances, a permanent suture is deeply embedded in the breast tissue to prevent post-surgical widening of the areola.

The nipple reduction procedure at The Banwell Clinic in London has a very high success rate. It’s common to observe skin ruckling after your breast reduction surgery, but this will subside over time.

Using permanent stitches significantly reduces the likelihood of further areola widening, ensuring that the nipples and areola maintain their reduced size. You may experience some changes to nipple sensation following nipple surgery, however, this is likely to be temporary.

You may feel some mild discomfort, swelling or bruising after your procedure, but this can be managed with pain medication until the effects subside.

Nipple reduction surgery can be performed under local anaesthetic or general anaesthetic, so you should not feel any pain during the nipple surgery.

More proportionate breasts

Our patients in London come out of surgery feeling much more satisfied with the look of the nipple and areola following their surgical procedure.

Long-lasting results

One of the major benefits of nipple reduction surgery is that it effectively reduces the size of the areola, permanently.

Minimal scarring

You also needn’t worry about extensive scarring; the technique is remarkably precise, confining any scarring to the natural boundary between the areola’s pigmented skin and the surrounding breast tissue.

Improved confidence

Addressing the very thing that has made you feel self-conscious for so long is a huge confidence boost.

Nipple reduction surgery in London is suitable for anyone who is unhappy with the size and shape of their nipples. Some patients with overly protruding nipples choose to have an areola reduction to eliminate any embarrassment that may come from having large nipples.

You may also find that your nipples look different due to pregnancy and breastfeeding, weight gain or hormonal imbalances. Nipple correction surgery might be the only way to revert your nipples to how they looked before.

A nipple reduction procedure can have the added benefit of tightening the breast tissue, however, you might choose to combine your nipple reduction surgery with other treatments such as breast augmentation and uplift surgery.

At Paul Banwell London, we take a personalised approach to all treatments. Book a consultation to discuss your goals for nipple surgery and any other breast procedures you would like to combine.
