Not satisfied with the appearance of your nipples or areolas? Nipple and areola reduction is a discreet cosmetic procedure that restores proportion, symmetry, and self-confidence. At the Royal Belgrade Clinic, experienced surgeons take care of your appearance with maximum safety and natural-looking results.
Nipple and Areola Reduction
The size, shape, and proportion of nipples and areolas play a key role in the overall aesthetic appearance of the breasts. While these characteristics naturally vary from person to person, in some cases, pronounced irregularities may occur — such as overly large, elongated, or asymmetrical nipples and areolas — disrupting the harmony of the breasts, causing discomfort, and negatively impacting a woman’s self-esteem.
Thanks to modern aesthetic procedures, nipple and areola reduction offers a safe and effective solution for achieving a more balanced appearance of the breasts, while preserving both function and natural sensation.
Who is a Candidate for Nipple and Areola Reduction?
Reduction of the nipples and/or areolas is commonly recommended for women with noticeable size disproportions relative to the breasts, visible asymmetries, or functional issues caused by inverted or hypertrophic (enlarged) nipples.
Common reasons for the procedure include:
- Areolas that are too large and disrupt the proportion of the breasts
- Elongated or enlarged nipples, especially after pregnancy and breastfeeding
- Asymmetry in the size or shape of the nipples/areolas between the left and right breast
- Inverted nipples that are both aesthetically and functionally problematic
- Psychological discomfort and loss of self-confidence due to the appearance of the breasts
Whether the changes are natural or occur over time, the procedure is always tailored to each patient’s anatomy and aesthetic goals.
How Is the Procedure Performed?
The procedure is typically performed under local anesthesia and takes between 60 and 90 minutes. In more complex cases — especially when combined with other breast procedures such as a lift, augmentation, or reduction — general anesthesia may be used.
The most commonly used surgical techniques include:
- Areola Reduction – Removing excess pigmented skin along the edge of the areola via a periareolar incision to achieve the desired size and proportion
- Nipple Reduction – Shortening or narrowing the nipple by removing excess skin and soft tissue, while preserving its functional portion
- Asymmetry Correction – Precisely aligning the shape, height, and position of the nipples and areolas on both breasts
Thanks to minimally invasive techniques and carefully placed sutures, scars are nearly invisible, and results appear natural and balanced.
Recovery After the Procedure
Recovery following nipple and areola reduction is generally quick and complication-free. Most patients return to their daily activities within 7 to 10 days, while the final aesthetic result is typically visible within 6 to 8 weeks.
Temporary postoperative symptoms may include:
- Mild swelling and tenderness in the treated area
- Occasional bruising or a feeling of tightness
- Temporary loss of sensitivity, which gradually returns
Patients are advised to wear a medical-grade support bra, avoid physical exertion and direct sun exposure, and attend regular follow-up appointments with the surgeon to monitor healing.
With proper postoperative care, results are long-lasting, and the aesthetic effect remains subtle, natural, and well-proportioned.
Safety and Potential Risks
When performed in a well-equipped and professional medical setting, nipple and areola reduction is a safe procedure. However, as with any surgical intervention, certain risks exist and are thoroughly discussed during preoperative consultations.
Possible — though rare — risks include:
- Infection or delayed wound healing
- Mild asymmetry
- Changes in pigmentation or sensitivity
- More visible scarring in patients with certain skin types
At Royal Belgrade Plastic Surgery Clinic, each procedure is carefully planned and personalized using advanced surgical techniques that minimize potential risks.
