An inverted nipple is a nipple that, instead of pointing outward, is retracted into the breast and sometimes cannot be seen. It can occur in both women and men, and some people have one nipple that is inverted and one that is not. At the hospital surgery for inverted nipples can be performed under a general or local anaesthetic and you'll normally be able to go home later the same day.

Inverted nipple correction is a relatively simple procedure and Complications after cosmetic surgery for inverted nipple are infrequent and usually minor. You can return to normal activities almost immediately and scarring is usually minimal.
