About Inverted Nipple Repair

For many women, having inverted nipples can be distressing. Lying flat against the breast or actually pulling in from the breast surface, they can be a source of self-consciousness and breastfeeding problems.

Inversion of the nipple is caused by a short milk duct system running from the chest wall to the nipple. Like a scar band that retracts the nipple in. Thanks to various techniques in plastic surgery, however, women with inverted nipples no longer have to live with this condition. Dr. Broujerdi can restore the nipple to a beautiful and natural, projecting appearance.

Dr. Broujerdi prefers to perform this procedure as an out-patient, under local anesthesia or mild sedation. Your recovery time is short and you may return back to work the next day. Our staff will provide you with post procedure instructions and care. There is no suture removal with Dr. Broujedi’s technique since all the sutures are internal and dissolvable.
