Nipple Correction Surgery

Do you have genetic issues with your nipples or areola?  Do you suffer from Supernumerary Nipples – also known as Extra Nipples? Are the size or shape of your nipple or areola embarrassing? Do you suffer from inverted nipples?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, you might want to consider Nipple Surgery. Nipple Surgery can help correct :

  • Inverted Nipples
  • Large, Fleshy or Deformed Nipples
  • Supernumerary Nipples
  • Overly Large Areola

  • What About The Bumps Around My Nipple?

    Many women will have noticed small lumps or bumps that sit on the areola, surrounding the nipple.  These are known as Montgomery Glands. These small bumps come in a variety of shapes and sizes and are entirely normal.  They secrete a small amount of natural oil to keep the areola lubricated.  These bumps can change sizes and colour over time, especially during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

    However, while these bumps are typically normal it is always wise to consult your GP if you notice any change to your breasts.

  • Supernumerary Nipples

    Supernumerary Nipples are better known as “third” or “extra” nipples.  Some people often have two or more extra nipples, however, this is a condition that affects less than 0.2% of the population.

  • Combined Nipple Correction and Breast Surgery

    Many breast surgery procedures require Nipple Surgery to correctly place the nipple on the altered breast.  Changing the size of the nipple and/or areola, and the placement is important to create a natural, balanced look.

    Dr. Robert Drielsma aims to preserve nipple sensation while creating a beautiful look, however, as with all surgery, there are some risks involved.  If you want to breastfeed in the future, it is important to tell your surgeon during your consultation so that you can discuss the best methods to retain nipple functionality

  • Breast Augmentation Mammoplasty and Nipple Correction Surgery

    Breast Augmentation does not always require nipple surgery.  Generally, after Breast Augmentation, your nipples naturally may appear higher on your chest immediately after surgery.  This will eventually improve as the implants settle into place and swelling subsides.

    Some women report larger, less prominent areola and less feeling in the nipple after breast enhancement surgery but that is not the result for every woman – each person and each surgery are different. This lack of feeling – or, in some case, hypersensitivity – may continue for the first few months after your surgery but, in most cases, will return to normal as healing progresses.

  • Breast Reduction Mammoplasty, Breast Lift (Mastopexy) and Nipple Surgery

    The nipple and areola seem to be most affected during Breast Reduction as this usually requires the nipple to be relocated and the areola reduced in size. This is especially true during combined breast reduction and breast lift surgery.

    Depending on the location of your nipple, breast reduction and/or breast lift surgery may require a relocation of the nipple. This will affect the sensation and functionality of the nipple so it is important that you discuss with Dr Drielsma your plans for a family and to breastfeed in the future.

    Dr. Drielsma will preserve the attachment of the nipple and keep the blood supply and nerves in place as much as possible. However, the further the nipple needs to be moved the greater the risk of lost sensation, impairing the blood and milk supply.

    As with Breast Augmentation, many women find the relocation of their nipple to be more aesthetically pleasing, with better-balanced proportions.

  • Nipple Reduction Surgery

    Nipple Reduction Surgery

    Nipple Reduction Surgery involves removing a doughnut of nipple tissue from around the nipple base. Dr. Drielsma performs nipple reduction under a local or general anesthetic.

    Oversized stretched or unevenly shaped areolas can also be remedied under local anesthetic by removing a doughnut-shaped piece of skin around the areola or nipple.

    Overly large and puffy nipples can be part of natural breast development or can follow breastfeeding.  They often present as cracked, bleeding or uncomfortable nipples.  This can be remedied by surgically removing the excess nipple projection and reducing the width of the nipple. This surgery can also be done under local anesthetic and is unlikely to affect future breastfeeding.

  • What About Nipple Correction Surgery Scarring?

    You must remember that all surgery will result in scarring in one form or another.  Nipple Surgery is no different.  Your level of scarring will depend on a variety of factors, including incision methods and genetic disposition to scarring.  However, most scarring related to nipple surgery will fade over time as you heal and is likely to be less prominent than scarring from other breast surgeries.

Nipple Correction Surgery FAQ

  • What downtime should I expect for Nipple Correction Surgery?

    Most Nipple Surgery procedures are done as day surgeries under a local anaesthetic. They can usually be done in Dr Drielsma’s office and don’t require admission to hospital.  You will be able to go home and resume normal activity soon after your surgery.  However, if you are combining Breast and Nipple surgery there will longer down time.

  • What Complications are there?

    There are possible complications with all surgical procedures and these will be discussed with you during your consultation. Complications with Nipple Surgery done by accredited Plastic Surgeons are rare.

  • Will I be able to breastfeed?

    It is important to remember that not every woman can breastfeed, even without nipple correction surgery.  The further you need to relocate your nipple, the higher the chance that you will lose sensation and the ability to breastfeed. It is best to talk thoroughly with your surgeon about any future plans to breastfeed.

  • What is the cost of Nipple Correction Surgery?

    The cost of Nipple Surgery varies from patient to patient and surgeon to surgeon, depending on what you want to achieve. It is important that you always do your homework when looking for a Plastic Surgeon.  You should be happy with the quality of service and the experience of your chosen surgeon for the price of surgery you are being offered.

    Be aware that cheap, overseas surgery is dangerous and most often leads to the need for expensive corrective surgery. Avoid the risk of dead or necrotic nipples by using an accredited Australian surgeon.

Breast shape naturally changes over time due to aging, gravity, and skin laxity. Many individuals experience breast ptosis (sagging), often paired with a loss of volume, resulting in a deflated or empty appearance.

If you are looking to restore shape and fullness, a breast lift using your own natural tissue may be the solution you are after. Using Dr Drielsma`s all natural lollipop breast lift without the need for breast implants can give a natural soft but perky result. This approach is particularly beneficial for individuals with sagging or droopingwith a B to D cup breast volume with no need to increase breast size.

Many patients are told they need to have breast implants to give shape. This is untrue and leads to many patients having oversized, fake looking breasts which develop breast implant complications over time.

A personalised consultation with a fully qualified Specialist Plastic Surgeon is essential to assess your goals, anatomy, and the most suitable treatment plan—ensuring realistic expectations and optimal results. Dr Drielsma is a fully qualified Specialist Plastic Surgeon.
