Areolar Reduction Surgery Bangalore, India
Areola reduction surgery is used to reduce the size of the areola. The areola is the dark area that surrounds the nipples. It can be performed on both men and women with the goal of improving the appearance of the breasts.
Areola reduction is considered when the areolas are abnormally large, puffy or dark, making the breasts appear smaller. Areola reduction in men is considered for large areolas that may cause embarrassment.
Procedure:
Areola reduction is a simple procedure that is frequently performed in conjunction with other breast-related cosmetic surgeries. The procedure is done under local or general anaesthesia.
Pre operative assessment and essential markings are done, including the incision line. Photographs are taken.
The procedure takes 1-2 hours.
The surgeon removes a round strip of peripheral areolar tissue and the surrounding normal skin is then sutured to the remaining areolar margin. Scars are usually minimal and they are often imperceptible once the wound has healed completely and the scar has faded.
Side effects:
Swelling, seroma, hematoma, recurrence
Recovery:
Recovery is relatively simple. Most of the time, a special doughnut dressing will be applied around the nipples and left on until the first follow-up appointment.
Results:
Areola reduction surgery results in noticeably smaller areolas and more aesthetically pleasing breasts. This is permanent if a healthy lifestyle is maintained and the patient doesn’t become obese.
