What is inverted nipple correction?
Inverted nipple correction releases the fibrous tissue tethering the nipple inward, allowing it to project naturally. The procedure is typically performed under local anesthesia and takes 30–60 minutes. It can be done as a standalone outpatient procedure or in conjunction with other breast surgery. Most patients return to normal activities within a day or two.

FAQs
Common questions about this service and what to expect.
Follow-up is managed through your surgeon's office. Our team is available to support you throughout recovery.
Yes — inverted nipple correction is commonly performed as part of a breast augmentation or lift. Your surgeon will incorporate it into the surgical plan.
Newly occurring nipple inversion in an adult — especially if not present from adolescence — should be evaluated by a physician to rule out underlying breast conditions before any cosmetic procedure is considered.
Inverted nipple correction is typically performed under local anesthesia. General anesthesia may be used if the procedure is combined with other breast surgery.
Some techniques for inverted nipple correction sever the milk ducts to release the tethering tissue, which may affect breastfeeding ability. If future breastfeeding is a priority, discuss this with your surgeon before proceeding.
Some temporary changes in sensation are common. Permanent loss of sensation is possible but uncommon. Your surgeon will discuss realistic expectations at your consultation.
Recovery is minimal. Most patients resume normal activities within 1–2 days. Light dressings are worn for several days, and pressure on the treated area should be avoided for 1–2 weeks.
For most patients, results are long-lasting. In some cases — particularly Grade 1 inversions — there is a small chance of recurrence. Your surgeon will discuss the technique best suited to your grade of inversion.
