The breast is one of the most important attributes of female beauty – a symbol of attractiveness and desire. Many women are not completely happy with the size and shape of their breast and today women who are unhappy with their breasts have many options which include Nipple Correction.

Inverted nipple correction is a surgical procedure used to make a turned in nipple to protrude out in the normal way. Many women suffer with nipple and areola abnormalities such as inverted, enlarged or extended nipples, and some womens nipples may fold over or even hang down as a result and development as a side effect of breast feeding, and puffy and enlarged or discoloured areola. These corrections can assist breast function and nipple sensation as well as causing a great deal of distress and self consciousness about self confidence and appearance. Inverted nipples do not affect the ability to breast feed.

• To increase self confidence and enhance self image
• To give a more youthful appearance in a natural way
• To increase the size of the nipples/areola
• To reduce the size of the nipples/areola
• To reduce or lengthen the nipples
• To reduce puffiness of the areola


Most cases of inverted nipple are congenital – some people are just born that way, however, some nipples become inverted after breast feeding when scar tissue builds in the milk ducts. Nipples that become inverted after birth are usually caused by one of three things: not enough skin at the base of the nipple, constricted milk ducts or scarring of the milk ducts due to breast feeding.

An inverted nipple may appear flat or as a hole or slit-like depression. Corrective surgery can restore the nipple to a naturally projecting, beautiful appearance.

Puffy areola (also known as Protuberant Areola) puts a cone like cap on the breasts that some women can find unattractive. Surgery can be performed to flatten the areola and beautify the breast.

The best candidates are those who are in good physical health, are mentally and psychologically stable, preferably do not smoke, thos who want to improve their appearance and those who have realistic expectations about the procedure and the results. Extra reasons may include;

• Those women who feel inferior to others.
• Those who feel insecure about their appearance due to the size of the nipple

Pre-visit and during consultations the surgeon will try to evaluate your physical-mental health and any medical conditions. In order to obtain the best results it is important that you are honest with the surgeon, that you advise any previous surgeries, if you are taking any medications, herbal supplements, vitamins or other drugs and if you smoke. Be sure to discuss your expectations and goals. The surgeon is here to guide, advise and explain to you how the surgery will be performed, possible alternatives that may offer better results, the risks and limitations of each as well as details of follow up and after care.

The Procedure

Nipple correction is a common procedure and correction of inverted nipples is usually performed under local anesthetic. The surgeon will make a small incision at the inverted nipple areola junction to give access to the tethered structure to be released. The incision will be just below the surface so that the tube, that will become the nipple, has tissue to fill the skin.

Stitches are then placed to hold the nipple in the correct position until it heals. Occasionally the milk ducts have to be cut to release the nipple, but not usually.

Most patients feel sore and tired for the first few days and will have slight swelling and bruising which is normal but should be able to return to work after a couple of days. Although you can walk about and do very light activities from the next day it is advisable not to do anything strenuous for 7-10 days.

A light dressing will be put in place which will need to be kept dry for 2 weeks. After 2 weeks the dressing will be removed and the wound lightly cleaned. The scars will be firm and pink for at least 6 weeks and may remain the same size for several months although they can take up to 2 years to fade. Results should be permanent.

Patients expectations need to be realistic but most are pleased with the outcome and find they gain a feeling of increased self-confidence.

If you are looking for a procedure to give you a more attractive breast contour then Nipple Correction is the answer. Most patients are more than happy with the end results and often repeat the process.
