Many women have nipples that are inverted
intermittently or constantly. It is often a source of
concern and self consciousness. Inverted nipples are caused
by tight and shortened breast duct tissue. The inverted
nipples can be corrected surgically by the release of
the foreshortened ducts, in many cases with minimally
invasive techniques.
Correction of nipple inversion may be performed
as an isolated procedure or in combination with other
breast surgeries.
The procedure is performed in our fully
accredited in-office surgical facility, most often requiring
local anesthesia only.
Recovery is rapid and return to work is often within
one to three days following surgery.
