What to do if your nipples are too big

Enlarged nipples are a health problem that many female friends have. If the nipples are too large, it will have a great impact on the image of women's private parts. Therefore, many women who care about this will choose to undergo nipple reduction surgery to improve this situation. If you undergo nipple reduction surgery, you will need to take certain precautions. Here we will introduce to you the preoperative care methods for nipple reduction surgery!

1. Psychological care

Most patients have psychological problems such as shyness and inferiority. We should express deep sympathy for their pain, talk to them more, care about them in life and pay attention to maintaining their self-esteem. Do not whisper or laugh loudly in front of them. Introduce to them in detail the preoperative preparations, precautions before and after the operation, and the effects of the operation. Explain that the purpose of taking pictures of the breasts at different angles before and after the operation is to accumulate imaging data in order to relieve their fears and doubts. When being examined by a male doctor, the patient should be actively accompanied and encouraged to cooperate actively so that the best surgical plan can be designed.

2. Accurately measure relevant data

A normal nipple should be located at the top of the breast cone, slightly outside the midclavicular line, at the level of the fifth rib, and pointing outward and upward. The position of the new nipple and the size of the breast need to be determined based on factors such as height, body shape, and chest width.

3. Make preparations for various inspections

Before nipple reduction surgery, the breasts and armpits must be carefully examined, and a breast X-ray should be performed if necessary to prevent missed or misdiagnosis of other more serious diseases that may exist in the breasts, which would delay treatment. Because breast reduction surgery involves a wide range of areas and is usually completed on both sides in the same operation (to facilitate achieving a symmetrical effect), a systematic examination of the whole body should be performed, especially an examination of important organs such as the heart, lungs, liver, and kidneys, as well as blood bleeding and coagulation times, in order to understand the patient's tolerance to the surgery and anesthesia process.

4. Skin preparation range

It extends from the clavicle and shoulders above, to the horizontal line of the umbilicus below, and passes the posterior axillary line on both sides. Shave armpit hair, pay special attention to the cleanliness of the navel, and if there is eczema infection in the skin folds under the breast, the infection should be treated or controlled before surgery to avoid postoperative infection.

5. Things to note before nipple reduction surgery

Anticoagulants, ginseng, birth control pills, aspirin, etc. are prohibited before surgery to avoid prolonging bleeding time during surgery; surgery should be avoided during menstruation to prevent hematoma due to breast congestion and prolonged coagulation time, which may affect the surgical effect.
