Inverted nipples are a condition where the nipples point inward instead of outward. An inverted nipple correction is a relatively simple surgical procedure that can help fix this problem. Recovery time is usually pretty short, and you should be able to return to your normal activities within a few days. The inverted nipple correction procedure is typically done on an outpatient basis, which means you won’t have to stay in the hospital overnight.
Your plastic surgeon will make some small cuts around the base of your nipple during the procedure in order to free it from the deeper tissue. After that, they’ll re-stitch it so that it protrudes outward. At Cozmo Bliss, our highly skilled surgeons will perform the procedure under local anaesthesia, IV sedation or general anaesthesia depending on your comfort level. In addition, the surgeon may also improve the stability of the corrected nipple by harvesting fat from another area of your body and injecting it under the nipple.
