| Nipple Reduction and Shaping: | ||
|
Nipple reduction is a technique used for reshaping nipples that are overly-projecting, and thus often tend to fold over, and sometimes hang downward. This situation is most often seen in women with small breasts, and small diameter areolae. The cause may be developmental, or may be seen as a consequence of breast-feeding.
