Often, the nipple area is also placed too low. To reduce breast size, I must first trim the gland. The skin, which supports breasts like a natural bra, is then reduced to match the gland size. Lastly, the areola is minimized and repositioned.

When the excess skin has been removed, the nipple and areola are moved to the higher position. The skin surrounding the areola is then brought down and together to reshape the breast. Stitches are usually located around the areola, in a vertical line extending downwards from the nipple area, and along the lower crease of the breast. Incisions outline the area of skin to be removed and the new position for the nipple.
