    Area of Science:

    • Plastic Surgery
    • Aesthetic Surgery
    • Reconstructive Surgery

    Context:

    • Nipple hypertrophy presents a significant aesthetic and functional concern for many individuals.
    • Surgical correction aims to reduce nipple dimensions while maintaining aesthetic appearance and function.
    • Previous techniques have varying success rates and potential complications.

    Purpose:

    • To evaluate the efficacy and safety of a modified Z-shaped incision technique for nipple hypertrophy correction.
    • To assess the impact of the technique on nipple dimensions, shape, sensation, and function.
    • To determine the long-term patient satisfaction and outcomes.

    Summary:

    • A modified Z-shaped incision technique was employed for nipple reduction in 22 women (44 sides) between 2008 and 2011.
    • The technique involves a specific geometric incision pattern to reduce nipple height, diameter, and base area symmetrically.
    • Postoperative results showed significant reductions in nipple dimensions with primary healing, no major complications, and satisfactory aesthetic outcomes.

    Impact:

    • The modified Z-shaped incision technique offers a reliable method for correcting nipple hypertrophy.
    • It successfully reshapes the nipple to a more desirable cylindrical form.
    • The technique preserves nipple sensation and function, with potential for normal lactation in some cases.
