Inverted Nipple Correction Turkey - Redo Plastic Surgery

What is a Nipple Correction?

Inverted Nipple Correction is a minor surgical procedure that releases the short milk ducts or fibrous connective tissues that pull the nipple inward. The inversion is caused when these tissues act like tight bands, preventing the nipple from projecting forward. The surgery involves making a tiny, discreet incision at the base of the nipple to carefully sever these bands. This allows the nipple to evert and sit in a natural, outward position, correcting both the functional and aesthetic aspects of the condition.

Who is it for?

This procedure is an excellent solution for healthy men and women who: Have one or both nipples that are inverted or “shy.” Are bothered by the appearance of their nipples and experience self-consciousness. Find it difficult to clean the area properly due to the inversion. May have experienced difficulties with breastfeeding in the past (though the procedure itself can affect future breastfeeding).

Benefits of the Procedure

The benefits of this simple procedure are significant: Aesthetic Gains: Creates a natural, projected nipple, improving the overall aesthetic appearance of the breast. Psychological Gains: Provides a major boost in confidence and body image, resolving a concern that many patients have had for years. Functional Gains: Can make hygiene easier and, depending on the technique, may address some functional issues. Minimal Downtime: A highly effective procedure with an extremely fast recovery period.

How is it Done?

The Inverted Nipple Correction procedure at Redo is quick and precise. Consultation: Your surgeon will assess the grade of inversion and discuss the best surgical technique for your specific case, including implications for future breastfeeding. Anesthesia: The procedure is comfortably performed under local anesthesia. Surgical Technique: A very small incision is made at the base of the nipple. Through this incision, the surgeon carefully identifies and releases the tight tissue bands causing the inversion. Once released, the nipple projects forward. It is then supported in its new, everted position, sometimes with a temporary, dissolvable stitch or a special dressing to prevent it from retracting during initial healing. Duration: The entire surgical procedure typically takes between 30 and 60 minutes.

Recovery & Aftercare

Recovery from Inverted Nipple Correction is remarkably fast. First Few Days: You may experience minor swelling, bruising, or tenderness, which subsides quickly. Discomfort is minimal. Return to Activities: Most patients can return to work and all light daily activities within 1-2 days. Aftercare: You will be given instructions on how to keep the area clean. It’s important to avoid direct pressure or friction on the nipples for a few weeks to allow them to heal properly in their new position.

Is the procedure painful?

No, the procedure is performed under local anesthesia. Any post-procedure discomfort is very mild and easily managed.

Will I be able to breastfeed after the surgery?

This is a critical consideration. Some techniques that offer the most permanent correction involve cutting the milk ducts, which would prevent future breastfeeding from that nipple. Other “duct-sparing” techniques exist but may have a higher chance of recurrence. This must be discussed in detail with your surgeon based on your future plans.

Will my nipples lose sensation?

While temporary changes in sensation are possible, permanent loss of sensation is rare with modern techniques.

Is there a chance the nipple could become inverted again?

There is a small chance of recurrence, particularly with duct-sparing techniques. Your surgeon will discuss the most effective method for a lasting result in your case.

What is the recovery like?

Recovery is extremely fast. You can resume most normal activities within a day or two, with only minor restrictions on direct pressure or friction for a few weeks.

Risks & Considerations

At Redo, we believe in full transparency for every procedure. Potential risks for inverted nipple correction include changes in sensation, inability to breastfeed, infection, scarring, and the recurrence of the inversion. The most important consideration is the trade-off between the permanence of the correction and the preservation of milk ducts. We ensure you have a clear understanding of these factors to make the best choice for you.
