Introduction

A large areola will considerably diminish the aesthetics of the breast, which is a very undesirable condition for women since it reduces aesthetics or even self-esteem. Recognizing women's concerns, Ngoc Phu Aesthetic Hospital utilizes the latest areola reconstruction technology, enabling the areola to become in harmony with the breast and maximizing the ideal beauty of the bust.

Method

How is Areola Reduction performed?

Areola Reduction involves removing excess areola tissue and reconstructing the areola shape to enhance the areola's aesthetics in the most harmonious way. After the procedure, doctors will close the incision with cosmetic threads. This is the most efficient way to reduce the areola to the desired size. Areola Reduction is also performed very gently, quickly, and safely.

Benefits

Compact and beautiful areola

The bust will be more appealing when the excess areola is removed, resulting in a slimmer and more balanced areola with the bust, helping women to feel more confident.

Gentle and scar-free procedure

Doctors will create a small incision and remove a part of the areola, then carefully close the incision to achieve the desired areola shape and hide the scar on the base of the nipple, ensuring no visible scars.

No effect on the areola's sensation

Areola reduction affects the exterior tissues rather than the internal glands, hence it has no negative effect on the mammary glands or the sensation of breasts.
