Nipple Reduction Newport Beach

At The Center for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, Dr. Grover understands that improved self-confidence is the best gift he can give his patients. Nipple reduction is a more minor procedure compared to other kinds of breast surgery, however it can have a great impact on the way a person feels about his or her body. Performed on both men and women, nipple reduction focuses on creating the correct diameter and projection of the nipple for each individual patient.

The Procedure

Tiny incisions are made in the areola and the nipple is reduced back to a lower projection. The size of the areola may also be reduced at this time by removing redundant skin and tissue. The procedure is done on an outpatient basis and has a very low risk for any side effects or complication.

Recovery

Dr Grover monitors his patient’s healing and recovery at each post procedure office visit and maintains regular communication to ensure patient’s confidence and comfort.

Your recovery time will vary after nipple reduction but typically light activity and a return to work can be resumed after about 3-7 days. More strenuous activity will be possible after 2-3 weeks. A support garment will speed healing and reduce swelling as you recover. Some discomfort and bruising may occur, however, Dr. Grover and his professional staff will ensure that your pain is managed and you are supported throughout your healing process.
