An inverted nipple sits pulled inward rather than projecting outward. Cosmetic repair may be considered when inversion is longstanding and stable. New or changing inversion requires medical evaluation before cosmetic planning.
Introduction
What is inverted nipple repair?
Inversion can relate to shortened milk ducts, scar tissue, or the structure beneath the nipple. The repair technique depends on severity, anatomy, and whether preserving the ability to breastfeed is a priority.
A broader breast concern may call for a separate breast-surgery plan. Dr. Ambani evaluates the nipple and surrounding breast before recommending a focused repair.

Honest guidance
Are you a good candidate?
YOUR CONSULTATION CONSIDERS
- The inversion is longstanding, stable, and has received any appropriate medical evaluation.
- You understand possible effects on sensation and breastfeeding.
- Your health and healing history support a focused surgical procedure.
AN INDIVIDUAL DECISION
Candidacy is personal. Dr. Ambani reviews your goals, anatomy, health, medications, prior procedures, healing history, and timing before recommending treatment.
She will also tell you when another procedure, further evaluation, waiting, or no treatment is the better plan.
A useful consultation leaves room for every outcome: proceeding, refining the plan, staging care, or deciding that waiting is right for you.

Does new nipple inversion need evaluation?
Yes. A new or changing inversion should be medically evaluated before cosmetic treatment is considered.
Can repair affect breastfeeding?
It can, because some techniques involve the milk ducts. Your priorities and anatomy guide the discussion.
Can inversion return?
Recurrence is possible and depends on severity, technique, and healing.
Can this be combined with other breast surgery?
