Nipple Reduction Surgery

The nipple and areola play a significant role in the overall appearance of the breast, and when they seem disproportionately large or misshapen, it can affect how a woman feels about her body. Enlarged or elongated nipples and areolas can also create practical frustrations — showing through clothing or making certain undergarments uncomfortable. Nipple reduction surgery refines the size and shape of the nipple-areola complex for a more proportionate, balanced result. Dr. Erez Dayan offers this procedure at Avance Plastic Surgery Institute in Reno/Tahoe, NV.

Nipple and areola reduction are performed by Dr. Erez Dayan, a board-certified plastic and reconstructive surgeon and Medical Director of Avance Plastic Surgery Institute known for the meticulous, detail-driven technique these refined procedures require. Trained in the Harvard Plastic Surgery Program — where he served as Chief Resident in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery at Massachusetts General Hospital — and fellowship-trained in aesthetic surgery at the Dallas Plastic Surgery Institute, Dr. Dayan practices at a state-of-the-art surgical center that hosts numerous research and investigative projects for major aesthetic companies. His precision and aesthetic eye make nipple reduction one of the practice’s most refined cosmetic breast surgery options.

Cosmetic Nipple and Areola Reduction in Reno/Tahoe

When you seek nipple or areola reduction from Dr. Dayan, the procedure is tailored to your precise needs and goals — every woman is different, every breast is different, and every surgery is unique. Dr. Dayan removes the necessary tissue and uses refined techniques to reshape, reform, or adjust the placement of the nipple and areola for the best possible appearance. Incisions are placed strategically to conceal scarring, and he can recommend aftercare treatments to help any visible signs of surgery fade. The details of his recommendations are reviewed during a confidential consultation at his Reno/Tahoe office.

“The nipple and areola are small in size but enormous in their effect on how a breast looks. This is detail work — a millimeter matters — and that precision is what creates a natural, balanced result.” — Dr. Erez Dayan
