Inverted nipple correction with concurrent aesthetic breast surgery: a 10 year review

Inverted nipples is a common congenital abnormality, with a variety of techniques previously described for correction, with high recurrence rates. We describe a novel technique to address inverted nipples in patients undergoing concurrent breast surgery, which the senior author has performed for correction of inverted nipples, using fascia fat graft, from 2014 to 2024. Eighteen women (26 nipples) have successfully undergone correction in conjunction with other breast procedures with no complications or recurrences, minimal scarring and donor site morbidity.

Abstract

Inverted nipples is a common congenital abnormality, with a variety of techniques previously described for correction, with high recurrence rates. We describe a novel technique to address inverted nipples in patients undergoing concurrent breast surgery, which the senior author has performed for correction of inverted nipples, using fascia fat graft, from 2014 to 2024. Eighteen women (26 nipples) have successfully undergone correction in conjunction with other breast procedures with no complications or recurrences, minimal scarring and donor site morbidity.
