Nipple surgery in Turkey covers inverted nipples, oversized nipples, asymmetry and reconstruction after mastectomy, under local or general anesthesia. Most patients are back to light activity within a few days. Prices run from about 1,200 to 2,500 $, depending on the technique and the clinic.

Turquie Santé sends your photographs and medical history to a partner plastic surgeon, then returns a quote. Airport welcome, transfers, an interpreter and a contact available seven days a week come with your stay.

If you may want to breastfeed, say so at the first consultation: some inversion corrections divide the milk ducts, and the technique should be chosen with that in mind.

How much does the surgery cost in Istanbul, Turkey?

What is nipple cosmetic surgery in Turkey?

The nipple (also called mamilla) is the raised area at the center of the breast. It is bordered by the areola, the pigmented skin around the nipple.

Nipple reduction surgery changes the size and/or shape of the nipple. Sometimes it is combined with areola reduction or a breast reduction.

Nipple imperfections can affect the well-being of both women and men. The purpose of this surgery is to give a natural-looking nipple.

Nipple abnormalities can be congenital, meaning present from birth. They can also be acquired after an accident, a mastectomy, the removal of a breast lump or breastfeeding.

Should I consult a cosmetic surgeon before a nipple reduction in Turkey?

A consultation with a cosmetic surgeon in a plastic surgery clinic is necessary. The surgeon reviews your medical history and your current treatments, so tell them about every medication you take.

The surgeon then performs a clinical examination to define the nipple imperfections to correct.

How is nipple cosmetic surgery performed?

Nipple surgery is performed in a sterile operating room, under local or general anesthesia depending on the technique and your preference.

Are there any complications of nipple cosmetic surgery?

Complications can occur, including hematoma, infection, loss of sensation and asymmetry. Your surgeon explains them during the consultation.

Inverted nipple surgery in Turkey

Inverted nipple surgery, also called retracted nipple correction, is mainly indicated for nipples that point inward, into the breast.

What are inverted nipples?

In this condition, the nipple points into the breast. It can be present from birth, or appear after a trauma or a disease.

Inverted nipples are relatively common and can affect one or both breasts.

A nipple that becomes inverted recently in adulthood can be a sign of an underlying disease, such as breast cancer. If this applies to you, see a doctor for a breast examination and imaging before considering surgery.

Inverted nipple surgery: for which reasons?

Plastic surgeons usually perform the surgery for three main reasons:

  • Functional reasons: inverted nipples can make breastfeeding difficult. Surgery can improve the nipple's shape, but some techniques divide the milk ducts and can make breastfeeding impossible, so discuss your plans for children with your surgeon.
  • Cosmetic reasons: some women have the surgery to restore a protruding nipple.
  • Psychological reasons: an inverted nipple, or an asymmetry between the two breasts, can affect confidence and self-esteem.

Inverted nipple surgery contraindications

Inverted nipple surgery may be postponed or not advised in the following situations:

  • Unrealistic expectations of the surgery.
  • Pregnancy or breastfeeding.
  • Being under 18.
  • An active breast infection (mastitis).
  • A recent change in the nipple, such as a nipple that became inverted in adulthood, which needs a breast examination first.
  • Uncontrolled chronic conditions or a bleeding disorder.

Your surgeon makes the final decision after the examination.

Nipple Cosmetic Surgery FAQ

What results can I expect from nipple surgery?

The results depend on the procedure performed: reducing the size, changing the shape, correcting inversion or improving symmetry. Results are often durable, but they vary from one patient to another, and an inverted nipple can sometimes retract again. Scars are usually small and fade over time.

Is breastfeeding possible after nipple cosmetic surgery?

It depends on the technique. Some nipple procedures preserve the milk ducts, and breastfeeding can remain possible. Others, especially some inverted nipple corrections, divide the ducts and can make breastfeeding difficult or impossible. If you plan to have children, tell your surgeon before the operation so that a suitable technique is chosen.

Can nipple surgery be combined with other procedures?

Yes, nipple procedures can be combined with breast augmentation, reduction, a lift or gender-affirming surgery. Combining operations means a single anesthesia and one recovery period, but it also lengthens the operation. Your surgeon proposes a plan based on your anatomy, goals and medical history.

Will there be visible scars after nipple surgery?

Yes, there are scars, but they are usually small and placed to be discreet. They mature over 12 to 18 months, and they fade without disappearing completely. Proper aftercare helps healing, and scarring varies from one person to another.

Can surgery correct inverted nipples?

Yes, surgery can correct inverted nipples. The procedure releases the tethered ducts or tissues that pull the nipple inward. It is often performed under local anesthesia as an outpatient procedure. The nipple can sometimes retract again, and releasing the ducts can affect breastfeeding. Your surgeon explains the options and risks.
