Inverted Nipple Repair

Inverted nipples, a condition where the nipple is retracted inward instead of protruding outward, can not only cause physical discomfort but also impact self-esteem and confidence. Inverted nipple repair surgery is a specialized procedure designed to correct this issue, restoring a natural and symmetrical appearance to the breasts.

At MilfordMD, all surgeries are performed in-office while the patient is awake, using local anesthesia for maximum comfort and convenience. During the procedure, small incisions are made near the base of the nipple, allowing Dr. Richard Buckley to release the tight tissue and reposition the nipple to a more outward projection. This not only improves the aesthetic appearance of the breasts but also helps to alleviate any discomfort associated with inverted nipples.
