There are a few different ways that inverted nipples can be treated. Your board-certified plastic surgeon can help you explore your treatment options (which might include surgery). If you’re bothered by the appearance of your nipples because one or both of them is inverted, then surgery can help. In order to be considered a candidate for surgery, you should be in overall good health and have realistic expectations about what surgery can achieve.

Your Inverted Nipple Procedure

Inverted nipple surgery is an extremely quick and low hassle. It’s typically performed using sedation or general anesthesia. To begin, Dr. Trupiano will perform a tiny incision at the base of the nipple. This allows the underlying fibers and ducts to be surgically released, allowing the nipple to protrude outward. Once complete, the incisions are closed, and you can return home.

Inverted Nipple Results and Recovery

Most patients need only 1-2 days of recovery after inverted nipple surgery. However, you should avoid any strenuous activities for the first week. It’s normal to experience some minor swelling and discomfort after surgery, which can be controlled with over-the-counter pain medications. Your incisions will be fitted with special dressings which will allow you to wear any bra or clothing that fits comfortably. Inverted nipple surgery can typically produce long-term results which will begin to settle in within a few weeks.
