Inverted Nipples

Correcting Inverted Nipples – For a Renewed Sense of Naturalness

Inverted nipples – medically also known as inverted mamillae – are not a flaw, but they are a sensitive topic for many women. Perhaps you feel inhibited during intimacy or are bothered by their appearance in the mirror. Or you have problems with breastfeeding. As individual as your feelings are, so is the solution we offer you at BONITAS.

A specialist carefully addresses your wishes and enables a precise correction of inverted nipples – for an aesthetically harmonious breast appearance and a new sense of self-esteem.

What are Inverted Nipples?

Inverted nipples are retracted or permanently inward-pointing nipples. Causes range from congenital connective tissue weakness to shortened milk ducts and inflammatory processes. Unilateral occurrence is also possible.

The good news: Surgical correction is quick, low-risk, and permanently possible – with natural results and preservation of function.

Treatment procedure

Before the procedure

What techniques does BONITAS use?

At BONITAS, both surgical and minimally invasive options are available to you – depending on the severity, your wishes, and the findings:

Surgical Inverted Nipple Correction (Standard Technique)
For severely inverted nipples, shortened fibers and milk ducts are severed, allowing the nipple to permanently protrude outwards. A fine suture system stabilizes the new shape – for a long-term aesthetic result.
Inverted Nipple Correction with Hyaluronic Acid Filler
For mild cases, a gentle injection with hyaluronic acid can be performed. The nipple is specifically plumped up to improve its shape and projection – entirely without surgery.
→ Result: Immediately visible, lasts approx. 6–12 months, repeatable as desired.
Fixing Suture Techniques
The nipple is stabilized in its new position using special internal sutures. The technique is particularly gentle and usually results in barely visible scars.

The choice of method is made after an individual analysis – empathetically, discreetly, and entirely tailored to your well-being.

What Results Can You Expect?

The result is permanent – in most cases, a single outpatient procedure is sufficient.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ): Inverted Nipple Correction

What are Inverted Nipples?

An inverted nipple – also referred to as an inverted or retracted nipple – is a nipple that does not point outwards but is drawn back into the surrounding tissue. It is often caused by congenital connective tissue weakness or shortened milk ducts. Most of the time, this is unproblematic, but it can be aesthetically bothersome or lead to difficulties with breastfeeding.

When should Inverted Nipples be Treated?

Correction is advisable if inverted nipples lead to recurrent inflammation, hygiene problems, or insecurity in the intimate area. Even if breastfeeding is impaired, a surgical solution can be considered. Important: If inverted nipples appear suddenly (unilaterally), this should be medically clarified – it can be an indication of an illness.

How are Inverted Nipples Corrected?

Correction is usually performed surgically under local anesthesia, whereby the pulling connective tissue fibers or shortened milk ducts are severed, allowing the nipple to permanently protrude outwards. The method is gentle, leaves minimal scarring, and can be performed on an outpatient basis. Upon request, inverted nipple correction can also be ideally combined with breast augmentation with autologous fat – for a harmonious overall appearance and additional volume gain.

What Does Inverted Nipple Correction Cost?

The costs depend on the scope of the procedure and the technique. At BONITAS, the treatment is planned individually – with a focus on aesthetics, function, and scar-minimizing execution. The exact costs are determined after a personal examination. In some cases, there may be a medical indication where cost coverage by the health insurance can be reviewed.
