Inverted nipple correction or nipple modification is a surgical procedure designed to correct the appearance of inverted or retracted nipples, providing both aesthetic and functional benefits. Inverted nipples can occur due to genetics, breastfeeding, or other factors, and they may cause discomfort or self-consciousness. Candidates for inverted nipple correction are typically individuals with one or both inverted nipples who desire a more natural and outward-facing appearance. The procedure can also address nipple asymmetry or other nipple shape concerns. Dr. Schmidt offers personalized consultation to determine the most appropriate surgical technique for your needs, helping you achieve a restored, natural look and improved confidence.

Recovery from Inverted Nipple Correction
A More Comfortable and Restored Appearance
The recovery process after inverted nipple correction is typically quick, but some initial swelling, tenderness, and bruising may occur. Patients will be instructed to wear a supportive bandage or garment to help minimize swelling and support the healing process. Most individuals can return to light activities after about a week, but strenuous physical activities should be avoided for at least 2-3 weeks. As the healing progresses, you’ll notice the nipples maintaining their natural, outward position, and any discomfort or self-consciousness about the appearance of your nipples will be greatly reduced. Over time, your final results will reveal a more balanced, youthful breast appearance, enhancing both your physical comfort and self-esteem.
