Retracted/Inverted Nipple – Patient 101

A professional woman in her mid 50’s with a more than 25 year history of a retracted nipple on her left. Although she was able to manually manipulate this and breast feed her children, it has always bothered her. She is shown before and again, 7 weeks after a closed inverted nipple correction through a micro incision procedure under local anesthesia in the office. A plastic stent was worn to support the nipple correction for the first week. Her sensation has remained normal. She is thrilled to finally have a normal nipple.
