Can men undergo areola reduction surgery? What should I do if my areola is too big?

Male friends can undergo areola reduction surgery. Areola reduction surgery is not just for women, so friends who are troubled by areola problems can undergo this plastic surgery. Male friends, don’t be shy, go consult a doctor immediately.

Men can do it.

Areola reduction surgery is suitable for men and women with oversized areolas. Areola reduction can be performed under local anesthesia. The surgery uses a circumferential incision or a fan-shaped incision around the areola. The surgery does not injure the nipple and breast tissue. The incision marks are left at the edge of the areola or inside the areola and are generally not obvious.

The most effective way to improve enlarged areola is through areola reduction surgery, but for boys, it does not have much impact unless the condition is very serious.

Areola reduction is done by drawing a circle with an appropriate radius (usually 1.5-2.5cm) with the nipple as the center. The circumferential areola skin outside this range should be excised, and the dermis and subcutaneous vascular network should be retained to prevent insufficient blood supply to the nipple and areola. A triangular piece of skin is excised from the outer circle in the transverse direction to reduce the radius to make it consistent with the radius of the new areola. Finally, the outer circle subcutaneous skin is slightly freed and sutured in place.

1. Areola reduction surgery is performed under local anesthesia, using a circumferential incision or fan-shaped incision around the areola.

2. Areola reduction surgery takes the nipple as the center and draws a circle with an appropriate radius (usually 1.5 to 2.5 cm). The circular areola skin outside this range is removed. The dermis and subcutaneous vascular network should be retained to prevent insufficient blood supply to the nipple and areola.

3. Cut off a triangular piece of skin from the outer skin in the transverse direction to reduce the radius so that it is consistent with the radius of the new areola.

4. After slightly freeing the outer subcutaneous tissue, suture the wound in place. After the operation, only gauze is used for coverage, no bandaging is required, and antibiotics are taken. The sutures are removed 7 to 8 days after the operation.

1. People with mental disorders or psychological barriers, lack of self-awareness of their own conditions, and blindly pursue unrealistic double eyelid shapes; those with severe scar constitutions, or abnormal coagulation mechanisms should inform the doctor in advance.

3. Patients with congenital amblyopia, acute or chronic infections in the inner or outer eye or around the eye that have not been controlled or healed on their own; those who have been allergic to local anesthetics or have anesthetic resistance during previous surgeries should inform the surgeon.
