Nipple concerns can affect both the appearance and function of the breasts, leading to physical discomfort and emotional distress. Common issues include inverted nipples, where the nipples retract inward instead of protruding, and overly large or elongated nipples that may appear disproportionate to the breast size. These conditions can arise naturally or develop over time due to factors like aging, breastfeeding, or hormonal changes. Women experiencing these concerns often feel self-conscious about their appearance and may encounter difficulties with breastfeeding or experience reduced nipple sensitivity.
Cosmetic nipple surgery offers solutions for women seeking to improve the appearance and function of their nipples. Nipple correction can be performed as a standalone procedure or as part of a comprehensive Mommy Makeover. Our clinic provides expert care in these specialized surgeries, ensuring natural and aesthetically pleasing results.
Inverted nipples can cause self-consciousness and functional difficulties, such as challenges with breastfeeding or reduced sensitivity. Inverted nipple correction is a procedure designed to normalize the appearance of the nipple and improve its projection. During the procedure, tight bands connecting the nipple to the breast tissue are carefully divided through a small incision at the base of the nipple. This allows the nipple to extend outward, creating a more typical and natural appearance. The procedure usually takes between 20 minutes to an hour and is performed under local anesthesia with minimal downtime.
For women with large or elongated nipples, nipple reduction surgery offers a way to achieve a more proportionate and natural look. This procedure involves making a small incision at the base of the nipple to reduce its size and prominence. The surgery is quick, typically taking about an hour, and is conducted in the office under local anesthesia. Sensation and breastfeeding capability are preserved in most cases.
