The price of nipple reduction surgery may vary between surgeons and surgery centers.
The biggest interments of the price will be the amount of work that is required and how much time the surgery will take.
If you only require a small amount of skin excision with minimal work into the breast tissue itself, this may readily be done as an outpatient or an office procedure under local anesthesia.
This may help meet your aesthetic goals and also limit costs. (Pat Pazmino, MD, FACS, Miami Plastic Surgeon)
The cost of nipple reduction surgery can vary.
There are a number of factors involved in determining the cost for nipple reduction surgery.
There are multiple techniques used depending on the size of the nipple both in projection and in width. Some techniques require additional time and effort and expertise.
Most procedures can be performed with local anesthesia thus lowering the cost. (Sanjay Grover, MD, Orange County Plastic Surgeon)
Cost of nipple reduction surgery
Doctors fees vary significantly according to the city you live in. Personally, I think charging 2,000 dollars for the average, straight forward nipple reduction is a bit too much. (Peter A. Aldea, MD, Memphis Plastic Surgeon)
Fees for nipple reduction
Fees will depend on the surgeon’s professional fees, operatory facilility, supplies, and anesthesia. (Otto Joseph Placik, MD, Chicago Plastic Surgeon)
Nipple reduction surgery is a procedure that I often perform in the office under local anesthesia. There is no down-time and very little discomfort. It can be one of the most satisfying procedures I do.
The cost runs between 1500 and 2000 dollars. (Phillip Chang, MD, Leesburg Plastic Surgeon)
It depends on your anatomy
Areolar reduction typically involves an incision around the outside and a smaller circle or diameter marked around the nipple.Most of the time a permanent suture is used around the outside circle to pull it like a drawstring around the smaller areola. (Michael C. Edwards, MD, FACS, Las Vegas Plastic Surgeon)
There is great variation in the cost of nipple reduction depending on technique used and geographic location.
I prefer to nipple reduction alone in the office under local anesthesia. Because there are no anesthesiologist or facility fees the procedure is quite affordable.(Bradley A. Hubbard, MD, Dallas Plastic Surgeon)
Nipple reduction costs about $1400 in Dallas
I perform nipple reduction in men and women under local anesthesia (and laughing gas, if desired, at no additional charge). This in-office procedures takes about 30 to 45 minutes. Total cost is approximately $1400. All stitches are absorbable, and scarring is generally minimal. (Ronald Friedman, MD, Plano Plastic Surgeon)
Nipple Reduction Surgery Fees
Surgical Fees vary considerably from office to office. In our office, it would be about $1500 – $2000 + MD Anesthesia fees (if necessary). (Kris M. Reddy, MD, FACS, West Palm Beach Plastic Surgeon)
