Q: Where will my scars/incisions be for a breast reduction?

A: With a standard breast reduction the incisions/scars will be around the nipple/areola with a vertical incision off the bottom of the nipple and a horizontal incision at the inframammary fold. Some describe the incision around the nipple/areola and the vertical incision as a “lollipop” incision/scar.
