About Nipple/Areola Surgery

More information about nipple and areolar surgery, including before and after pics, is available here.

There are several factors that can alter the shape of your nipples and/or areolas, including breastfeeding, pregnancy, imbalanced hormones, changes in weight, and genetics. Both men and women may have abnormalities of the nipple and areolar area that can be improved with surgery.

Dr. James Nachbar performs procedures to correct, reduce, and reposition the nipples and/or areolas for a more symmetrical and natural look. He offers several procedures that can restore the natural shape of nipples that are overly large, misshapen, or inverted. Dr. Nachbar may also reposition or reshape the nipples and areolas after a breast augmentation, breast lift, or breast reduction surgery. To learn more about nipple/areola procedures, contact our Scottsdale, AZ office today.

Meticulous and Dedicated Surgeon - Dr. Nachbar exceeded all my expectations. I had a rhinoplasty about a week ago and despite all the swelling my nose already looks amazing. What really impressed me about this doctor was his dedication. I had a few concerns the day after my surgery, which was a Saturday, and called him about 10 times. He answered each and every call and was patient and kind each time. He even met me at his office that same day to take a look at what was concerning me. I will be going with Dr. Nachbar for any future procedures.

Wow just wow... I cannot express how amazing this doctor is. I had a rhinoplasty done and the results are beyond my expectations. He truly is an artist and an outstanding doctor who puts patient well-being and care above all other things. I ended up having some issues the day after surgery, which was a Saturday, and he answered every single call no matter the time and was always patient and kind. He met me at his office with no notice that day to address my concerns and made sure I received the care I needed. I wish he could be my doctor for everything because I've never had one that cared this much!

Surgical Technique

There are a wide variety of nipple and areolar procedures that can be used.  Some of them can be done under local anesthetic in the office.

For example, both men and women may have enlarged nipples with fairly normal areolae, and for them, the procedure can often be done in the office under local anesthetic.

What to Expect

Following the procedure, patients may experience some swelling and discomfort that typically will subside within a few days. Dr. Nachbar and his team will provide post-procedure instructions to ensure a successful healing process.

Depending on the procedure, the result may be apparent immediately, or may take several weeks as any swelling resolves.

Will nipple surgery affect my sensitivity?

There is a possibility of temporary changes in sensitivity after nipple surgery, which typically improves as you heal. However, permanent changes in sensitivity are rare and depend on the extent of the procedure and individual healing responses. If you have any questions or concerns, we invite you to bring them up during your visit with Dr. Nachbar so he can address them with you.

Can I still breastfeed after nipple surgery?

Breastfeeding may still be possible after nipple surgery, but it depends on the type of procedure and how much of the breast tissue or ducts are affected. It's a good idea to discuss your breastfeeding goals with Dr. Nachbar to ensure they can take this into account during the surgery.

Can nipple surgery be combined with other breast procedures?

Many patients at Scottsdale Plastic Surgery choose to combine nipple surgery with procedures like a breast lift, augmentation, or reduction. This approach can streamline the process, allowing for more comprehensive results while reducing the overall recovery time. Dr. Nachbar works closely with each patient to create a personalized treatment plan that aligns with their aesthetic goals.
