A man in his late 40’w with gynecomastia (male breast development) and prominent nipples papules. He is mainly bothered by the prominence of his nipples in light clothing and has decided to have a nipple papule reduction in the office, before considering a gynecomastia procedure to reduce the size of the breasts. In the gynecomastia gallery you will find patients who have had both procedures performed at the same time in the operating room. He is shown before and again, 4 months after nipple papule reduction in the office. When the problem is simply the height of the nipple papule and it is not excessively wide, then a “top hat flap” procedure is not needed. A simpler procedure, where the top of the nipple papule is removed under local anesthesia heals in nicely in a few weeks and typically gives an excellent result, as seen here.
