Nipple hypertrophy is an occasional deformity in Asians and a rare one in Caucasians. Lately, it has been showing up more often in plastic surgeons' offices across North America and elsewhere, owing to the influx of Asian immigration worldwide, as well as to the rising interest in esthetic surgery among Asian communities.A simplified technique for nipple reduction is described herein. It is very easy to execute, delivers accurate results and is extremely safe. It tackles both the excessive 'projection' and the less frequent excessive 'width' of the nipple. It may be used separately or incorporated as an adjunct to mammary augmentation or mastopexy. Excellent esthetic results are obtained, while both the nipple innervation and its lactiferous ducts are preserved. The patient's and surgeon's satisfaction is high.
乳头肥大在亚洲人身上是一种偶见的畸形，在白种人中则较为罕见。近来，由于全球范围内亚洲移民的涌入，以及亚洲社区对美容手术兴趣的增加，在北美及其他地区的整形外科诊所中，这种情况越来越常见。本文描述了一种简化的乳头缩小技术。它操作非常简便，效果精确且极为安全。它既解决了乳头过度“突出”的问题，也处理了较少见的乳头过度“宽度”问题。它既可以单独使用，也可以作为隆胸或乳房上提术的辅助手段。在保留乳头神经支配及其输乳管的同时，获得了极佳的美学效果。患者和外科医生的满意度都很高。
