    Area of Science:

    • Plastic Surgery
    • Reconstructive Surgery
    • Dermatology

    Background:

    • Inverted nipples are a common congenital or acquired deformity.
    • This condition can cause cosmetic concerns and difficulties with breastfeeding.
    • Existing surgical corrections may have limitations in efficacy or recurrence rates.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe a simple and effective surgical procedure for the correction of inverted nipples.
    • To present a method that minimizes recurrence of the deformity.

    Main Methods:

    • The procedure involves the preparation of two deepithelized dermal flaps.
    • Tissue volume beneath the nipple is supplemented to provide adequate support.
    • Slings are used post-operatively to prevent recurrence of the inverted nipple deformity.

    Main Results:

    • The described method offers a simple approach to correcting inverted nipples.
    • The use of dermal flaps and slings aims to provide a stable and long-lasting correction.
    • This technique addresses both the structural defect and prevents recurrence.

    Conclusions:

    • The presented surgical technique is a viable option for inverted nipple correction.
    • The combination of tissue augmentation and sling fixation offers a promising solution for preventing recurrence.
    • This method provides a straightforward and effective treatment for inverted nipples.
