What to do if your areola is big

As for the problem of what to do if the breast areola is too large, in fact, it can be easily solved through modern medical technology. Areola reduction surgery is a plastic surgery that was developed to address the problem of oversized areolas.

Areola reduction surgery can easily solve the problem of oversized areolas. Generally, the normal diameter of the areola is 3-5cm. If it is smaller than this range, the areola is too small, and vice versa, the areola is too large. Surgery can effectively improve these conditions. Areola reduction surgery is relatively simple. It removes part of the areola tissue that is too large to make it more commensurate with the size of the breast and make it smooth and symmetrical.

The method of areola reduction surgery can use a circumferential incision or a fan-shaped incision on the areola, which will not damage the nipple and breast tissue. The incision marks will remain on the edge of the areola or within the areola, which is generally not obvious. After the operation, it is only covered with gauze and does not need to be bandaged. You only need to take antibiotics and the sutures can be removed 7-8 days after the operation to complete the entire areola reduction and repair operation.
