Nipple Inversion CorrectionPatients with nipple and areolar deformities are again a category of patients that come to me with complaints and concerns they have lived with for years, have hated, and had no idea that these could be corrected and cured with a comfortable and straight forward operation under totally local anesthesia. Repair and correction of inverted nipples is a very common problem with a not so obvious solution. Many doctors, including plastic surgeons, are not comfortable with this operation or the correction and discourage patients telling them, “you are fine, forget about it”. I not one of these doctors, and rather, I understand how you feel and can cure this for you with a very predictable, safe, and natural looking surgery.
Nipple inversion occurs as a result of shortening of the milk ducts as they course from the glands to the nipple. This can occur from birth or as a result of trauma or infection. The shortened ducts pull the nipple inwards, creating a slit. Inversion occurs in different degrees from never coming out at all, to everting for long times with slight pressure. This is not an inherited condition. Over the years there have been dozens of operations to address inverted nipples. These have involved large unsightly incisions, using bulky appliances or devices to stabilize or suction the nipple up, and lots of postoperative pain and care. The operation I perform does away with all of these. Correction of nipple inversion in my hands is a very predictable operation done under a local anesthesia, with very small imperceptible incisions on the nipple only, no hardware or devices needed, about one hour long, and provides a permanent and beautiful result and allows you to return to work the same day. You can begin exercise in two days and the tiny stitches are dissolvable.
Surgery of the nipple is very common in my practice. I have performed hundreds of these procedures over the years and not a single patient has experience any problems. I have special expertise in this procedure and spend a great deal of time discussing your anatomy, listening to your expectations, and interpreting for you what your anatomy and body will allow me to do in a safe and predictable way. In addition, I build a system into every surgery that, initially, allows you to recover much quicker and, secondly, serves to preserve your surgical results. This system includes a special diet, vitamins, supplements, skin products, physical training and knowing what to avoid. Together, all of this allows me to create results that are consistently very beautiful, quick to heal, exceptionally natural, and with minimal incisions, especially in an area of such great importance to men and women. Even though patients occasionally tell me they think this condition is trivial, it is clearly a high priority or you would not be reading this. I am delighted to provide you such a profound body image change that has consistently so pleased my patients and changed their lives.
