How Inverted Nipple Correction Works: A Step-by-Step Look at the Surgery

Inverted nipples are a common condition that affects both men and women, often causing self-consciousness and discomfort. While some people experience mild inversion that can be temporarily corrected with stimulation, others have severely inverted nipples that remain retracted due to shortened milk ducts or fibrous tissue.

At PANTHEONS, we specialise in inverted nipple correction surgery, a simple yet transformative procedure designed to restore nipple projection for both aesthetic enhancement and functional improvement. Whether you seek correction for cosmetic reasons or breastfeeding concerns, our expert team provides tailored solutions to ensure natural, symmetrical results. In this guide, we’ll walk you through the step-by-step process of inverted nipple correction, so you know exactly what to expect.

Step 2: Preparing for Surgery

Inverted nipple correction is a straightforward and minimally invasive procedure, typically performed under local anaesthesia for a comfortable, quick recovery.

You’ll receive pre-operative guidance tailored to your health history.

If needed, additional imaging or medical assessments will be conducted to ensure a smooth procedure.

Step 3: The Surgical Procedure

The surgery itself typically takes 30-60 minutes and follows a meticulous approach to release the inverted nipple while preserving natural sensitivity.

Technique Used at PANTHEONS:

• Local Anaesthesia Application – To ensure a pain-free, comfortable experience.
• Small Incision Under the Nipple – A discreet incision is made to access the fibrous tissue causing the inversion.
• Releasing the Tethered Ducts or Fibrous Bands – Depending on the severity of inversion, the surgeon carefully loosens the restrictive tissue to allow the nipple to project naturally.
• Structural Support for Long-Lasting Results – Internal sutures or specialised techniques are used to maintain the nipple’s shape and position after release.
• Minimal Scarring and Precision Closure – The incision is closed with fine, dissolvable sutures to ensure minimal scarring and a natural finish.

At PANTHEONS, we take great care to preserve nipple sensitivity and breastfeeding capability whenever possible, ensuring the best functional and aesthetic outcome.

Step 4: Recovery and Aftercare

Recovery from inverted nipple correction is quick and straightforward. Most patients can return to normal activities within a few days, with minimal discomfort.

What to Expect Post-Surgery:

• Mild swelling and sensitivity for the first few days.
• Protective dressings to support healing and prevent re-inversion.
• No heavy lifting or intense activity for about one week.
• Follow-up appointments to monitor healing and ensure optimal results.
