Areolar Reduction Procedure Overview
Dr. Rudderman uses techniques that allow for the best incisional healing. Also, his patients rarely experience loss of or change in sensation or disruption in the milk ducts that allow for breast feeding.
The Areolar reduction involves an incision around the Areola followed by removal of a variable amount of breast tissue. This technique of removal resembles a donut shape resulting in a fine scar that totally surrounds the Areola. This surgery can be done with light anesthesia and healing time is quick. Most patients return to work the next day.
Many patients choose to have this done in tandem with other breast procedures, such as Breast Lift or Breast Augmentation, to achieve the most pleasing outcome and to do it all under one anesthesia. Dr. Rudderman will help guide you through your choices to achieve the results you want and deserve.
