Nipple - Reduction Before & After Case 229

This 30-year-old woman wanted her nipples to be less prominent and began looking for a skilled Los Angeles lastic surgeon who could reduce the size of her nipples. After doing some research, she scheduled a consultation at Dr. Stoker's practice.

When she met with her surgeon, he examined her nipples and discussed the specific type of nipple surgery he would perform. To preserve the function of the nipple and the surrounding nerves, her surgeon would perform a special technique that does not cut the milk duct and works around the nerves to preserve sensation. Additionally, he would make the incision around the base of the nipple to conceal any scarring that might occur.

After her surgery was completed, her nipples were recessed to a more normal size. In the "after" photos, there is slight scarring around the nipple, but it is very faint. When asked how she felt after the surgery, this patient said she was very happy with the results and glad that her nipples had a more discrete profile.
