About the procedure
Inverted nipple correction surgery is generally performed as an outpatient procedure, using IV sedation or general anesthesia, which is solely administered under the care of a board-certified anesthesiologist. Dr. Andres will make a miniscule incision just at the base of the nipple, so as to release the nipple from any tethering “bands.” Once these bands have been cut and the nipple has been repositioned appropriately, Dr. Andres will close up the incision. An inverted nipple correction surgery is a quick procedure, taking less than an hour to complete. In most situations, the sensations of the nipple will not be affected.

During Recovery
Once you’re out of surgery, you will be allowed to return home. The treated areas will be carefully bandaged, so as to avoid complications like infection, as well as promote proper healing. Most patients feel ready to return to work as well as daily routines within a mere few days. It is suggested that any exercise be taken up 2-3 weeks after your surgery. Dr. Andres and his team are available to answer any additional questions you may have, regarding your surgery, or any other prospective procedures.
