The average cost of Nipple Reduction Surgery in Turkey in 2026 ranges from $1,200 to $2,000 (approx. £950 – £1,600) for a standalone procedure under local anesthesia. If performed as an ‘add-on’ to Breast Lift or Gynecomastia surgery, the additional cost is typically lower, around $600 – $900. This price point allows patients to access specialized microsurgical techniques for functional and aesthetic correction at a fraction of Western prices.

Why is the Price Lower in Turkey?
Nipple reduction is often performed under Local Anesthesia, which significantly reduces the cost by eliminating expensive hospital operating room fees and general anesthesia charges. Furthermore, Turkey’s lower labor costs and favorable currency exchange rates allow clinics to offer high-quality microsurgery by experienced plastic surgeons for significantly less than clinics in the UK or USA, where overheads are much higher.
Clinic Care Center: Expert Warning on Breastfeeding
We prioritize honesty regarding your future plans. While Nipple Reduction is a minor surgery, it involves the milk ducts. Our surgeons use tissue-sparing techniques to preserve breastfeeding ability, but it cannot be 100% guaranteed. If you plan to breastfeed in the near future, please discuss this during your consultation. Additionally, temporary loss of nipple sensation is common, though it usually returns within 3-6 months.

Frequently Asked Questions About Nipple Surgery
Will I have visible scars on my nipples?
Scarring is minimal. The incision is typically made at the base of the nipple (where it meets the areola), allowing the scar to be hidden in the natural transition line of the skin. Over time, these scars usually fade to be virtually invisible.
Does nipple reduction hurt?
The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, so you will feel no pain during the surgery. Post-operative discomfort is usually mild and can be managed with over-the-counter painkillers. Most patients return to normal daily activities within 24 hours.
Can I combine this with Gynecomastia surgery?
Yes, this is extremely common for male patients. Reducing the size of puffy or projecting nipples while removing excess chest fat/gland tissue creates a more masculine chest contour. Combining the surgeries saves time and money.
Is Areola reduction the same thing?
No. Nipple reduction addresses the central projecting point (height/length). Areola reduction reduces the diameter of the darker skin circle surrounding the nipple. Both can be performed simultaneously if needed.
How soon can I shower?
You can typically shower 24 to 48 hours after surgery, once the initial dressings are removed. You will be advised to pat the area dry gently and avoid scrubbing the incision site for a few weeks.
Will my nipples grow back?
No, the results are permanent. The excess tissue is surgically removed, so the nipple will not grow back to its previous size.
How does Inverted Nipple Correction work?
Inverted nipples are caused by short milk ducts tethering the nipple inwards. The surgery releases these tight ducts, allowing the nipple to project outward naturally. In severe cases, this release may impact breastfeeding, which your surgeon will discuss with you.
Will I lose sensation?
Temporary numbness is common due to the disruption of small nerve endings. However, sensation typically returns within a few months as the nerves heal. Permanent loss of sensation is rare but is a potential risk.
