Inverted Nipple Repair: A 7-Year Experience | Dr. Daniel Gould
Dr. Daniel Gould co-authored research published in Aesthetic Surgery Journal examining the surgical correction of inverted nipples and the long-term outcomes associated with an integrated repair technique.
The study reviewed seven years of clinical experience, including 103 consecutive patients and 191 nipple corrections. The researchers evaluated recurrence, complications, patient characteristics, and breastfeeding status to better understand the effectiveness and reliability of the approach.
A key focus of the technique was correcting nipple inversion while minimizing disruption to the lactiferous ducts. This reflects an important consideration in nipple surgery: achieving structural correction while preserving anatomy and function wherever possible.
The authors concluded that their seven-year experience supported the safety and effectiveness of this approach to inverted nipple correction, while also documenting recurrence and complication rates across the patient group.
