A novel surgical technique offers a simple and durable solution for inverted nipple correction. This method provides lasting support without visible scars, addressing a common aesthetic concern.

Area of Science:

  • Plastic Surgery
  • Reconstructive Surgery

Background:

  • Inverted nipples are a common condition affecting many individuals.
  • Existing surgical techniques for inverted nipple correction lack a universally effective and durable solution.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce and evaluate a new surgical technique for correcting inverted nipples.
  • To assess the simplicity, durability, and aesthetic outcomes of the novel procedure.

Main Methods:

  • A new technique involving the insertion of two flaps beneath the nipple through a small tunnel was developed.
  • The procedure was performed on 11 patients, involving correction of 18 nipples in total.

Main Results:

  • The technique demonstrated simplicity in execution.
