Will Nipple Reduction lift my bust?

Question:

Could you tell me if nipple reduction will give my bust a slight lift and is there any risk of the skin puckering with this type of surgery? I work in an office and was wondering how long I would need to rest before going back to work.

Finally, could you give me an idea as to the cost of this treatment?

Answer:

Thank you very much for your enquiry. Nipple reduction does lift the breast slightly but there is a limit to the amount of skin that can be removed as we want to avoid puckering around the areola. This limits the amount of skin that can be tightened up and the amount of elevation you can get from the nipple.

The advantage to this approach is that the scar is limited to just the areola region. I hope this information has been helpful. Please feel free to contact us anytime if you have any further queries.
