The Basics – Nipple Reduction in West Palm Beach
Dr. Kris Reddy FACS performs nipple reduction at his West Palm Beach Plastic Surgery Center, his AAAASF nationally accredited facility, utilzing MD Anesthesiologists to provide iv sedation or local anesthesia. Depending on the needs and objectives of the woman, Dr. Reddy can reduce the length, the width or both. Dr. Reddy performs the procedure in 2 to 3 hours.
Nipples that are too long either droop down or project too far out can be shortened. Usually, to create a shorter nipple length, the tip of the nipple will be removed and sutured for closure. Sometimes the skin along the neck of the nipple will be removed. In those circumstances, the tip of the nipple is then sutured to the bottom of the nipple, creating a shorted nipple length.
If the nipple is too wide (or thick), but not too long, a pie-shaped wedge will be removed from the undersurface of the nipple. This allows the nipple to be "taken in" and the circumference reduced. Dissolving sutures are used.
For some people the nipple may be too wide and too long. In those cases, both procedures are performed.
Recovery time will depend on the patient, but most patients can resume their normal activity within a day or two. Dissolving sutures are used.
This treatment does not usually affect the ability to breastfeed. Some women are unable to breastfeed even without surgery.
The Basics – Areola Reduction in West Palm Beach
Dr. Kris Reddy FACS performs areola reduction at his West Palm Beach Plastic Surgery Center, his AAAASF nationally accredited facility, utilzing MD Anesthesiologists to provide iv sedation or local anesthesia. Depending on the needs and objectives of the woman, Dr. Reddy can reduce the length, the width or both. Dr. Reddy performs the procedure in 2 to 3 hours.
Dr. Reddy performs areolar reduction by removing some of the pigmented areola, either by an incision around the outside of the areola or by an incision around the base of the nipple. Dr. Reddy may need to perform a lollypop-shaped closure for very large areolas may . This is where a vertical incision runs down from the nipple as well as around the areola and then is closed in the shape of a lollypop.
The goal is to minimize scarring and this is achieved by performing the smallest incision necessary. Dissolving sutures are placed underneath the skin.
Recovery time will depend on the patient, but most patients can return to work and resume their normal activity within a day or two.
This treatment does not normally affect the ability to breastfeed. Some women are unable to breastfeed even without surgery.
