Plastic Surgery Procedures Abroad - Inverted Nipple Correction Guide

 
Medical Procedure: Inverted Nipple Correction

Common Name:
inverted nipple repair, nipple inversion surgery

What to Expect from Inverted Nipple Correction: The objective of the Inverted Nipple Correction procedure is to correct inverted nipples so that they protrude out rather than in. Areola reduction, breast reduction, or breast lift surgery may be accompanied by this procedure.

Description of
Inverted Nipple Correction Surgery: The first step is a detailed consultation with your surgeon, who will explain and discuss with you the best method to help you achieve your desired results. After undergoing anesthesia, incisions are made just under the nipple on the areola. The nipple is gently lifted, but remains attached to the areola to preserve sensation and the ability to breast feed. A suture is placed around the neck of the nipple, and the nipple is pulled out manually, using the “purse-string” technique. The size of the suture depends on the degree of nipple inversion. After the procedure, the nipple is supported with a sombrero splint (Mexican hat splint) and sutures for about one week. Scarring is barely visible due to the circular direction in which the sutures are placed around the nipple. This procedure is outpatient, which means that the patient can return home the same day that the surgery is performed.

Good Candidates for Inverted Nipple Correction: Women with inverted nipples due to congenital deformities, breast feeding, or prolonged use of medication who are self-conscious or unhappy with their appearance in clothing or in the nude are good candidates for this “corrective” aesthetic surgery. 18 should be the minimum age requirement for this procedure.

Average Duration
Inverted Nipple Correction Surgery: 1-2 hours

Estimated Recovery Time: approximately one week

I can return to work within:
As long as strenuous activity is kept to a bare minimal, the patient should be able to return to work within 1 week.

I should see the complete result of my surgery within: Estimated 2 weeks. This will vary from patient to patient.

Pain Factor: Patients are usually given a local anesthesia, or a local anesthesia combined with sedatives. If the patient prefers to be unconscious during the operation, general anesthesia is also an option. Sore and tender nipples is to be expected for the first 3 days following the operation, but this will slowly subside within the course of 3 weeks. In the meantime, over-the-counter medications can be used to alleviate the pain.

Potential Side Effects/Risks associated with
Inverted Nipple Correction: Allergic reaction to anesthesia, infection, re-inversion, bleeding, itchiness, dryness, slight discoloration or change in pigment, unwanted scarring.
