Inverted Nipple Surgery Before After #03

PATIENT DETAILS

This 59-year-old woman had a breast reduction 20 years ago performed at another institution. She has since complained of a lack of projection and inversion of the nipples. She reports that both inverted nipples will occasionally exteriorize spontaneously. Her wish is to correct the nipple inversions so that they always remain in an exteriorized position. Surgery was performed on both nipples:

• 30-minute procedure
• outpatient surgery
• local anesthesia
• grade 1 inverted nipples 

The photographic follow-up was obtained 6 weeks after surgery.
