Inverted nipples, although not medically dangerous, can be a constant source of embarrassment for both men and women. If you are one of the millions of people with this condition, Dr. Khalifeh offers a custom correction surgery to repair inverted nipples and restore your confidence.
When your nipple points inward, it is “inverted.” There are gradient levels of severity of inversion:
Many factors can cause inverted nipples:
Inverted nipple correction is a very safe procedure with a low risk of complications. That said, there is a chance you could experience bleeding, infection, or a lack of sensation in your nipples.
The cost is approximately $2,750 for both nipples.
Unfortunately, most women are unable to breastfeed after undergoing surgical inverted nipple correction, as the procedure can stretch or damage milk ducts.
The donor area is identified and marked. The selected area will be cosmetically enhanced by removing fat for a trimmer, more sculpted body. The donor area may be love handles, thighs, or abdomen.
The donor area is injected with tumescent fluid to numb the area and cause the fat cells to be more easily extracted. If larger quantities of fat are to be removed, intravenous sedation may be administered.
The fat cells are extracted from the donor area with gentle liposuction to preserve the integrity of the cells to be transferred.
The fat is purified and placed into syringes.
The fat is injected into the breasts, with small droplets injected throughout the breast parenchyma.
The fat is injected into each breast, placing small droplets of fat in the breast parenchyma (the soft tissue of the breast).
This procedure typically increases breast size from a half cup to a full cup size. For a more significant increase in size, you may choose to undergo more than one treatment.
You can expect the enhancement to last a lifetime.
You should be able to return to work within two to three days. The swelling and discomfort will fade, with the final results visible in about three months. The beauty of this procedure is that the enhancement is entirely natural and virtually scar-free.
