Nipple Correction
Surgical correction of the nipple or nipple surgery is an operation aimed to correct the size and shape of the nipples in order to eliminate the pathology and related physical and aesthetic inconveniences. It can be carried out as a separate surgery or combined with a breast lift, breast plastic surgery or areola correction.



Indications
- Nipple asymmetry.
- Lack or excess of nipple tissue.
- Inverted nipples.
- Large, thick, strongly protruding nipples.
- Areola and nipples disproportion.
General contraindications: mastopathy, cancer, cardiovascular and acute infectious diseases, chronic hypertensive disease, thyroid disorders, diabetes mellitus, blood-clotting disorder, patients under 18 years old, pre-arranged pregnancy, recent lactation.
Methods of nipple correction
In order to reduce the size of the nipple:
- A sector resection is performed – the sector of the nipple (triangle-shaped) is incised, the edges are stitched, and the nipple becomes narrower.
- A wedge resection is performed – the excess part of the nipple tip is incised, and the nipple becomes shorter. In case of this surgery, part of the milk ducts is cut.
In case of the inverted nipple correction:
- Bands of fibrous tissue are cut, the nipple is released and fixed in the desired position.
- A base is created under the nipple by all means, including tunneling, use of de-epithelized subcutaneous flaps, tendon strips, etc.
During breast lift or breast reduction surgeries, the nipple-areola complex is shifted upwards and excess tissues are removed at this time.
