CHARACTERISTICSAreola Reduction
Areola reduction is a cosmetic procedure that reshapes and reduces the size of the areola. It addresses concerns related to the areola, including not only congenital size but also changes due to pregnancy, childbirth, breastfeeding, and age-related enlargement. This cosmetic surgery involves removing a doughnut-shaped section of the areola and suturing it back together. Techniques include the "periareolar method," which removes the outer edge of the areola, and the "peripapillary method," which removes tissue around the nipple. The surgical approach can be selected based on the patient's preferences and condition.
At Bianca Clinic, we design procedures with the overall balance of the bust in mind, aiming for a natural, well-proportioned areola that looks seamless.
Say goodbye to your complex! Achieve a balanced, natural reduction of your areola.
Many people struggle with concerns about the size or asymmetry of their areolas, yet find it difficult to confide in others. Whether wearing undergarments or swimwear, or feeling self-conscious in public baths or saunas... For those who experience moments of insecurity in daily life, areola reduction surgery can be a positive step forward.
At Bianca Clinic, we work closely with each patient to address their individual desires—whether it's reducing the size of prominent areolas or achieving symmetry between both sides—to guide them toward balanced, ideal areolas.
We prioritize natural results and your satisfaction while proposing subtle, comfortable changes. Precisely because these are delicate concerns, we provide a welcoming environment where you can consult with us with peace of mind.
Minimizing scar visibility is our top priority! Achieve a natural look.
When considering areola reduction, many patients are concerned about whether the scar will be noticeable. At Bianca Clinic, we carefully position the incision along the edge of the areola to minimize the visibility of the scar after surgery.
Furthermore, through meticulous suturing techniques and thorough aftercare, we enhance the skin's integration after healing, supporting a natural finish.
Additionally, wound healing varies from person to person depending on individual constitution and lifestyle habits. We carefully monitor your post-operative progress and provide necessary care or schedule follow-up appointments as needed, so please feel free to consult with us.

Recommended Features
RECOMMENDED POINTSBroadly addresses both congenital and post-lactation areola enlargement
There are various reasons why areolas may enlarge. Some are due to innate physical characteristics or genetics, while others may change due to life events such as childbirth, breastfeeding, or aging. Some individuals experience discomfort or anxiety, thinking "I'm concerned when comparing myself to others" or "I feel like they've been getting bigger over the years," yet find it difficult to discuss and continue worrying alone.
At Bianca Clinic, we offer personalized treatments tailored to each patient, regardless of the underlying cause. We place great importance on listening carefully to your story, including your background, and providing support while empathizing with your feelings.
Your concerns about your appearance aren't just about how you compare to others—how you feel about yourself matters too. First and foremost, please prioritize your own feelings and feel free to consult with us in a relaxed manner.
Guiding you to your desired outcome through consultation and design planning
In areola reduction surgery, the design is crucial as it significantly influences the final appearance. At Bianca Clinic, we dedicate ample time to pre-procedure consultations, carefully listening to each patient's desires and concerns.
We design to achieve your ideal look, considering not only the size of the areola but also its balance with the nipple and breast, as well as the overall form. During your in-person consultation, we carefully listen to the nuances that can only be conveyed face-to-face, working with you to articulate your desired image. Please feel free to share even your most specific wishes. We believe that meticulous, personalized proposals lead to natural, highly satisfying results.
Post-operative support included! Aftercare system
Satisfaction with areola reduction surgery is significantly influenced by the postoperative course and wound healing. Therefore, our clinic has established a system for follow-up care and aftercare to ensure patients can feel at ease even after the procedure.
We provide thorough guidance on suture removal, checking for swelling and redness, and home care methods. We also schedule follow-up appointments as needed and offer advice on post-operative daily life.
If you have any concerns about your daily life during your downtime, please don't hesitate to consult with us. We don't just provide treatment and leave you to it—we stay with you every step of the way until your results are complete. That is the approach Bianca Clinic values most.

Before the procedure, the doctor carefully examines the condition of the patient's areola. While checking the size, shape, and any asymmetry, we confirm the desired outcome. We also take the time to listen to your wishes and concerns, proposing an appropriate treatment plan.
Design
We carefully design the size and shape of the areola while considering the overall balance of the nipple, areola, and breast. To achieve a result that meets your expectations, we aim for both natural beauty and a well-proportioned appearance, making adjustments down to the finest details. Depending on the condition, reduction of up to approximately 50% is possible.
surgery
Using anesthesia (either local anesthesia, nitrous oxide anesthesia, intravenous anesthesia, or relaxation anesthesia), we perform areola reduction tailored to the patient's condition. The procedure typically takes about 40 minutes and allows for same-day discharge. We also take thorough measures to minimize pain and scarring for a comfortable post-operative experience.

Frequently Asked Questions About Areola Reduction
Q&AIs there any pain during the surgery?
With local anesthesia or nitrous oxide sedation, you may feel some stimulation during the administration of the anesthetic, but there is almost no pain during the procedure itself. With relaxation anesthesia or intravenous sedation, you will undergo the procedure in a sleep-like state. In either case, you will be able to receive the treatment in a relaxed state while the anesthesia is effective.
Will the scars from areola reduction be noticeable? How long does it take for them to become less noticeable?
The incision is made along the pigmented border of the areola, so the postoperative scar becomes less noticeable over time. Redness may persist for about one month after surgery, but over two to three months, it gradually changes to a thin white line and becomes less visible. Please note that individual healing varies.
After areola reduction, is it possible for the areola to return to its original size?
It is rare for the area to return completely to its original size, but depending on your body type and skin elasticity, it may expand again. At Bianca Clinic, we perform procedures using appropriate suturing techniques designed to minimize recurrence. Additionally, revision surgery may be possible depending on the condition.
Does it affect breastfeeding?
The surgery is performed without damaging the mammary glands, so it generally does not affect breastfeeding function. If you have concerns, please discuss them during your consultation.
Can I receive this treatment at the same time as other treatments?
Depending on the procedure and your condition, some treatments can be performed simultaneously. Combining procedures may help achieve a more ideal bust shape in some cases. A doctor will determine suitability during your consultation, so please discuss this with them.
How long will it take to get back to normal life?
Swelling and bruising will subside within 1 to 2 weeks. Showering is permitted starting the next day for the lower body only; full-body showers may resume after 3 days. Bathing, exercise, alcohol consumption, and smoking should be resumed gradually according to your doctor's instructions.
How many follow-up visits are required after surgery?
Post-operative care includes suture removal the next day and on the 7th day, followed by follow-up visits one month and three months later. The number of visits may be adjusted based on your condition, so please attend appointments as instructed by your doctor.
Can men also have surgery?
Yes, we also provide treatments for men. If you have concerns about the size or appearance of your areola, please feel free to consult with us.
Are there any conditions that would make someone ineligible for areola reduction?
We do not provide treatments to individuals who are pregnant or breastfeeding. Additionally, depending on your medical history or existing conditions, you may not be eligible for treatment. Please consult with us during your counseling session.
