At San Antonio Plastic Surgery, our board-certified plastic surgeons specialize in nipple reduction surgery, helping patients achieve their desired nipple size and shape.

What Is Nipple Reduction?
Nipple reduction surgery addresses concerns about overly large or prominent nipples. It involves removing a small portion of the nipple tissue and carefully reshaping it to achieve the desired size and projection. This is sometimes called a “reduction mammaplasty of the nipple.”
Who Is an Ideal Candidate for Nipple Reduction?
You may be an ideal candidate for nipple reduction surgery if you:
- Are physically healthy
- Are a non-smoker
- Have realistic expectations about the outcome of the procedure
- Are bothered by the size or projection of your nipples
- Feel self-conscious about your nipples or have difficulty with clothing choices due to their size

The Process for Nipple Reduction Patients
Our board-certified plastic surgeons take the time to truly understand your concerns and aspirations, ensuring a personalized experience that caters to your unique needs. During your consultation, our surgeons will carefully evaluate your concerns, discuss your goals, and conduct a thorough examination to determine the most suitable surgical plan for you. They will walk you through the procedure in detail, address any questions you may have, and provide clear pre-operative and post-operative instructions to ensure a smooth and comfortable recovery.
What To Expect During Surgery
The surgical technique will vary depending on your needs and desired outcomes. Nipple reduction typically involves making an incision around the base of the nipple, removing excess tissue, and reshaping the nipple. This procedure can be performed under general anesthesia with other procedures or in the office under local anesthesia if performed in isolation.

Recovery and Aftercare
We want you to feel confident and comfortable throughout your recovery journey. Following your nipple reduction surgery, you can expect some temporary swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort, all of which can be effectively managed with prescribed pain medication.
To aid in healing and support your newly refined contours, you’ll need to wear a supportive bra as directed. While you should avoid strenuous activities for a few weeks, you’ll be able to return to your normal routine relatively quickly.
Our dedicated team at San Antonio Plastic Surgery will provide you with detailed instructions on how to care for your incisions and what to expect during the healing process. We’re here to support you every step of the way, ensuring a smooth and comfortable recovery.
