Nipple reduction addresses projection, size, proportion, or asymmetry. It may be performed as a focused procedure or considered alongside another breast operation when the concerns are related.
Introduction
What is nipple reduction?
The operation removes and reshapes selected nipple tissue while preserving as much normal structure as the plan allows. The technique depends on whether projection, width, asymmetry, or more than one feature is being changed.
Nipple reduction is different from areola reduction and from inverted nipple repair. Dr. Ambani confirms which structure is driving the concern before planning surgery.

Honest guidance
Are you a good candidate?
YOUR CONSULTATION CONSIDERS
- Nipple size, projection, shape, or asymmetry is the specific concern.
- You understand possible changes in sensation and breastfeeding.
- Your health and tissue quality support elective healing.
AN INDIVIDUAL DECISION
Candidacy is personal. Dr. Ambani reviews your goals, anatomy, health, medications, prior procedures, healing history, and timing before recommending treatment.
She will also tell you when another procedure, further evaluation, waiting, or no treatment is the better plan.
A useful consultation leaves room for every outcome: proceeding, refining the plan, staging care, or deciding that waiting is right for you.

Thoughtful answers
Common questions
These answers are general. Your consultation is where Dr. Ambani applies them to your anatomy, health, and goals.
Is nipple reduction the same as areola reduction?
No. The nipple projects from the center of the areola. The two structures require different planning.
Can nipple reduction affect sensation?
Yes. Temporary or lasting sensation change is possible.
Can it affect breastfeeding?
It can, depending on anatomy and technique. This should be discussed before surgery.
Can nipple reduction be combined with breast surgery?
Sometimes. Dr. Ambani decides whether a combined or separate plan is safer and more precise.
