Whether you struggle with protruding, enlarged, or inverted nipples, leading surgeon Paul Banwell utilises the latest techniques to deliver natural-looking, long-lasting results through nipple reduction surgery in London.
We understand the profound impact that the size, shape, and appearance of your nipples can have on your self-confidence and overall wellbeing. Having differently sized or shaped areolas can be a sensitive issue for many women and men, but this variation is entirely natural and common.
Areola reduction is a procedure that has helped many women and men in the UK feel more comfortable and confident in their bodies. If you’re considering this option, we encourage you to speak to us about nipple reduction at our London clinic.
The Banwell Clinics are located in Harley Street in London, Tunbridge Wells and East Grinstead. Don’t hesitate to get in touch to learn more about nipple reduction surgery with award-winning plastic and cosmetic surgeon, Paul Banwell.

Nipple reduction surgery is designed to achieve a more proportionate appearance of the areola in relation to the breast. The procedure involves removing a circular portion of the outer brown area of the areola before drawing in the surrounding skin to encircle the remaining areola.
Absorbable sutures are placed inside the areola to decrease its diameter, and in most instances, a permanent suture is deeply embedded in the breast tissue to prevent post-surgical widening of the areola.
The nipple reduction procedure at The Banwell Clinic in London has a very high success rate. It’s common to observe skin ruckling after your breast reduction surgery, but this will subside over time.
Using permanent stitches significantly reduces the likelihood of further areola widening, ensuring that the nipples and areola maintain their reduced size. You may experience some changes to nipple sensation following nipple surgery, however, this is likely to be temporary.
You may feel some mild discomfort, swelling or bruising after your procedure, but this can be managed with pain medication until the effects subside.
Nipple reduction surgery can be performed under local anaesthetic or general anaesthetic, so you should not feel any pain during the nipple surgery.
Our patients in London come out of surgery feeling much more satisfied with the look of the nipple and areola following their surgical procedure.
One of the major benefits of nipple reduction surgery is that it effectively reduces the size of the areola, permanently.
You also needn’t worry about extensive scarring; the technique is remarkably precise, confining any scarring to the natural boundary between the areola’s pigmented skin and the surrounding breast tissue.
Addressing the very thing that has made you feel self-conscious for so long is a huge confidence boost.
Nipple reduction surgery in London is suitable for anyone who is unhappy with the size and shape of their nipples. Some patients with overly protruding nipples choose to have an areola reduction to eliminate any embarrassment that may come from having large nipples.
You may also find that your nipples look different due to pregnancy and breastfeeding, weight gain or hormonal imbalances. Nipple correction surgery might be the only way to revert your nipples to how they looked before.
A nipple reduction procedure can have the added benefit of tightening the breast tissue, however, you might choose to combine your nipple reduction surgery with other treatments such as breast augmentation and uplift surgery.
At Paul Banwell London, we take a personalised approach to all treatments. Book a consultation to discuss your goals for nipple surgery and any other breast procedures you would like to combine.

Mr Banwell explained to me exactly what he was going to do and made me feel at ease. The team were all friendly and made me feel very comfortable in the hospital. The scar on my forehead healed very quickly and I have full movement and feeling of my eyebrow. I would recommend Mr Banwell and his team because of the high standard of professional and personal care given to me.
…total expertise and attention to detail in surgery.
During the time I have been in the care of Paul and the team I have been treated extremely well and very professionally, I could not have asked for better care. Paul was extremely caring and considerate throughout this time and has put me at ease during any procedures that I have had carried out. I trust his judgement completely and recommended Paul to a close family member who had a similar problem.
You were very knowledgeable about every part of the procedure and that is why I chose you over any other surgeon/clinic. Nearly 5 years on and I am very pleased with the results of my operation and have had no problems and they look so natural and have built my confidence so much.
I decided to have treatment with Mr Banwell as I had been seeing him on several occasions regarding stomach irregularities due to a disastrous lipo operation abroad a few years ago. We discussed various options together and I always felt comfortable talking with Mr Banwell and trust him completely to give me the correct advice when considering surgery. I felt my expectations were realistic as Mr Banwell had advised me of the possible downside of the procedure. However, all my expectations were exceeded tenfold! My stomach is looking so much better aesthetically and my breasts look amazing! Mr Banwell and his team excelled at making me feel comfortable and relaxed. I felt I was able to discuss matters with friendly people who cared. I feel Mr Banwell takes time to cover all aspects of the procedure in a friendly, caring and informative manner. I feel happy to say one couldn’t be in safer hands. My overall experience with Mr Banwell and his team has been very positive in all aspects culminating in amazing results. I couldn’t be happier.
I was referred to Mr Paul Banwell in February 2010 when I was diagnosed with an advanced melanoma in the lymph nodes in my left groin. At my consultation he explained in layman’s terms my diagnosis and all details regarding the operation I needed. Mr Banwell operated on 27th February 2010. The operation was a complete success – he has removed all the cancer as subsequent scans have proven. I then spent seven days recuperating in the McIndoe Surgical Centre in East Grinstead under Mr Banwell’s and his specialised teams care. They were all wonderful. Mr Banwell was at my bedside every morning to check my progress. His kindness and caring knew no bounds. He made all my fears and anxieties groundless and replaced them with optimism for a great feature and my aftercare was first class. I would recommend this highly professional, dedicated, humane family man to all who need any medical intervention. He is the best. How do you thank a man who gives you your life back? There are no adequate words.
