Nipple Inversion Correction
Restoring Natural Shape: Nipple Inversion Correction
Nipple inversion correction is a refined surgical procedure that addresses inverted or retracted nipples, a condition where one or both nipples appear flat or drawn inward instead of projecting out. The procedure focuses on enhancing nipple projection and symmetry while maintaining a natural and balanced appearance. Depending on the underlying cause and degree of inversion, the approach is tailored to each patient’s anatomy.
Candidate Suitability
Nipple inversion correction may be suitable for individuals who:
- Notice lifelong (congenital) nipple inversion or inversion that developed over time.
- Experience nipple retraction that does not spontaneously correct itself with stimulation or temperature changes.
- Desire improvement in aesthetic appearance and nipple projection symmetry.
Procedure Options and Techniques
The surgical technique depends on the level of inversion and anatomical features of the nipple. Common approaches include:
- Release of constricted ducts or fibrous bands through a small incision at the nipple base to restore natural projection.
- Support suturing techniques that help maintain the nipple in an outward position without compromising its blood supply.
- Duct-preserving methods, preferred for patients who wish to retain future breastfeeding capability, when feasible.
- Minimally invasive corrections for mild inversion, performed under local anaesthetic, with minimal downtime.
The procedure is carried out usually under local anaesthetic, typically lasting around one hour. An overnight stay is not required, and most patients return home the same day.
Recovery and Aftercare
Post-procedure recovery is usually straightforward and comfortable:
- The nipples are protected with light dressings to maintain their shape and position.
- Patients are advised to keep the area clean and dry in the early days following surgery.
- Most individuals return to daily activities within 1–2 days, avoiding exercise or pressure on the chest for about two weeks.
- Gentle monitoring helps assess healing progress and nipple projection over time.
Nipple inversion correction provides an elegant, long-term improvement in breast aesthetics, helping restore the natural contour of the nipple area with careful, evidence-based precision.

Dr. Evita is the most unbelievably caring surgeon. She takes time to discuss your needs and is so approachable. When I had a breast lift, she held my hand every step of the way. I highly recommend her and would not entertain anyone else. She always returns your messages directly, not through a third party.. Which, to me is everything.. 5 star 💫

Very good surgeon! You come out of the surgery, they take off your gauze and you see your incisions so thin you can’t believe it. The pain is really minimal. The creams she advises you to take and the way you should put them on the incisions help a lot so that after a year they are not noticeable. As far as Botox, she was the only doctor I went to that told me right away about the stuff she uses. I have never seen a more natural result!

I have only good things to say about Ms. Askouni!!! She approached my problem in detail, explained to me in detail the procedure that follows, which made me feel safe and confident. She was talkative and willing to solve any question or hesitation I had. Also, the most important thing is that after the surgery she called me to find out how I was and every week we had contact either by phone or in her office. She is an excellent, kind and friendly doctor. Ms. Magda is also very kind. Always with a smile!!!
