Inverted Nipple Correction & Retracted Nipple Correction

Under local anesthesia the inverted, retracted nipples are pulled out by the help of a suture sling. A small incision is made on the sides of the nipple. This entrance is used to release the thick, tight, adhesive connective tissue bands that are the cause of the inward pull and deformed, retracted look of the affected nipples. Several sutures are used to prevent the nipples from re-retraction and assure the permanent protrusion of the nipples.

We perform inverted nipple correction in our private surgical suites at the Liposuction and Cosmetic Surgery Institute Chicago, Arlington Heights, Oak Brook and Naperville.

The inverted nipple procedure usually costs about $2000 depending on the scope of the treatment.

Our surgeons use local or IV sedation.

The patient undergoes a safe, mini in-office surgical procedure to release the cause of enhance definition of either one or both retracted nipples.

Normally only a few hours.

Only one procedure is necessary. Results are permanent

Normally only 30 minutes to one hour.

Anyone, male or female, who has inverted or retracted nipples and wants aesthetic correction of partial or completely retracted nipples. The distress may be aesthetic, but nipple inversion can also cause recurrent rashes and infection. The goal is permanent protrusion of of their nipples, rather than the deformed look of retracted nipples. Women must understand that after inverted nipple surgery breast feeding will be impaired. Any female patient who intends to breastfeed should not undergo the inverted nipple procedure.

At the Liposuction and Cosmetic Surgery Institute in Chicago, our surgeons can surgically release the adhesions that pull the nipple, or nipples, down.
