While evaluating the breast should be considered as a whole and evaluated by considering the nipple or shape and proportional harmony. But people can sometimes be uncomfortable with only one area, sometimes with the appearance of the nipple. Although it is expected people usually apply to plastic surgeons less frequently for this reason. Nipple problems can take many forms. But the most common one is the inversion of the nipples, which is called “inversion.” This condition is commonly seen in women who have given birth or have small breasts.

In treating patients with sunken nipples, if the breast is small, breast augmentation surgery is often sufficient to correct the nipples. Because when the silicone implant pushes the breast tissue outward, the collapsed nipple comes out again and gains a natural appearance. The criterion here is that the nipple becomes prominent outward when squeezed during palpation. This group of patients benefits greatly from breast augmentation surgery. If aesthetic breast surgery is not performed or if the breast is already large, an operation can be performed that makes the nipple clear and keeps it upright. This is a simple operation performed under local anesthesia. The most commonly applied technique is the extraction and clarification of the nipple with flaps prepared from the brown area of ​​the breast. Although it gives successful results, it can prevent breastfeeding and reduce the brown spot in the breast. Therefore, before applying it to young girls who have not given birth or to patients with small areolas, the patients should be well informed, and the profit and loss calculations should be made. But it may be the ideal method for middle-aged female patients who do not expect children. Fat or filler injections may be considered for younger patients.

Nipple Aesthetic Surgery

Asymmetry in the nipples is another common problem. One of the nipples can be large, and the other can be small. In this case, the preferred method is to reduce the large nipple.

One of the other breast problems is that the dark-colored part around the nipple is more comprehensive than usual or asymmetrical between the two breasts. It can be easily corrected by reducing the broad side in this case.

Huge nipples can also be uncomfortable while wearing clothes or in one’s private life. This problem can be solved by reducing the nipples. Again, suitable candidates for this procedure are women who are not breastfeeding candidates.

Nipple cracks or nipple irregularities are another problems. Its treatment is the same as in other corrective surgical procedures.

The nipple may not be congenital or after breast cancer. This condition can involve both the nipple and the brown part of the breast. In the treatment, the nipple is made from the surrounding tissues. The brown area around the nipple can be created with a skin patch taken from the space between the skin of the outer lip of the vagina and the groin. Because the skin color of this area is very close to the skin color in the brown area of ​​the breast. Therefore, the color tone gives a look close to the original. Alternatively, medical tattooing can be applied.

Nipple problems can be corrected with surgical methods. Determining the appropriate way for the proper patient is the most crucial criterion.
