Nipple Correction Surgery (Inverted Nipple Treatment)

Nipple Correction Surgery is a safe and effective cosmetic procedure designed to treat inverted (invaginated) nipples. In this condition, the nipple retracts inward instead of projecting outward. This may be present from birth or develop after trauma, burns, or infection.

Inverted nipples may create cosmetic concerns and can sometimes interfere with breastfeeding. Surgical correction restores natural projection and improves confidence.

What Is an Inverted Nipple?

An inverted nipple is a condition where the nipple is pulled inward into the breast instead of pointing outward. It may affect one or both breasts and can vary in severity.

Purpose of Nipple Correction Surgery

• Restore natural nipple projection
• Improve breast appearance
• Help facilitate breastfeeding
• Correct congenital or acquired nipple inversion
