The Naked Surgeon:
Plastic Surgery, The Naked Truth about Nipple Correction
To begin with, many women refer to the part of the breast with the Areola and Nipple as “The Nipple”. Let’s discuss anatomy for a moment. The nipple is the part that generally protrudes out from the center of what is actually the Areola. The Areola is the larger pigmented, generally round area usually centered on the breast. The pigment and shape can vary depending on ethnicity, genetics, pregnancy and so forth. The areola can be extremely pale and the edge hard to distinguish from the rest of the breast skin. On the other hand, it can be large, very dark and even elevated from the skin as a small “cap”. There may also be small bumps on the areola called Montgomery tubercles. These can enlarge with pregnancy, breast feeding or periods.
There are a variety of surgical and non-surgical treatments for each of these anatomic breast parts. Nipple correction is often requested for correction of inversion, repair from piercings or traumatic injuries, reduction of an overly wide or projecting nipple or enlargement for nipples that are not projecting enough.
Areola correction is generally requested for areolas that are asymmetric, too large, or too projecting. Overly projecting areolas are commonly seen in patients who have a tuberous or tubular breast condition.
Most of these procedures can be done in the office under local anesthesia with minimal or no down time and quick healing. All of these procedures may interfere with breast feeding, or change and diminish sensation, so this must be considered by the patient before proceeding with a procedure.

Inverted Nipple Correction
This is a surprising common problem for women, seen in as many as 2% of adult females. This can be bilateral or may occur only on one side. This interferes with the ability to breast feed. It is also a source of embarrassment for many post-adolescent women especially with current trends in social media allowing the viewing of other women to be readily accessible.
For some women, the nipple can be pushed out or may come out naturally with cold as the Areola contracts. This can occur with adolescent breast development, after breast feeding, trauma or a growth in the breast tissue.
Surgical Correction of inverted nipples is also a simple operation for most women that can be done in the office as a brief procedure with local anesthesia. It requires very small incisions that generally become invisible. Although the breast ducts are frequently affected by the surgery, we use techniques of duct sparing surgery that provides a greater chance to preserve some duct function and sensation. It is common to perform inverted nipple surgery at the same time as another breast operation such as breast augmentation, mastopexy, breast reduction or breast revision surgery.
Again, when deciding to have the surgery, our patients must accept the possibility that the ducts will not work and allow breast feeding. They will also have a high risk of diminished sensation. That being said, the majority of our patients are overwhelmingly happy to have the correction of their nipples.
How long does the surgery take to perform?
Inverted nipple correction is a short procedure which usually takes about one hour for both sides as an outpatient surgery.
What type of anesthesia is used to correct my inverted nipples?
Most often, the operation will be done with topical and local anesthesia. We offer Nitrous Oxide (laughing gas) as well. Patients may choose twilight or general anesthesia, but this is usually not necessary.
Non-surgical inverted nipple correction
This is best accomplished with a device such as the Phillips AVENT Niplette. This is a device, shaped like a thimble that attaches to the nipple with a small amount of suction, pulling the nipple out of its inverted position. We often recommend that patients use the Niplette before and after surgery to obtain the best result.
How much does inverted nipple correction cost in Newport Beach, Orange County , California
The average cost for this surgery of both sides of the breasts, including operation room, supplies and anesthesia is about $3-6000 dollars by most doctors, however, because of our experience, we can usually offer this to our patients in our office surgery center for less than $3000.00.

Nipple Reduction
Correction of protruding nipples and correction of inverted nipples (ones that actually are “retracted “into the areola are the two most commonly requested procedures. Of interest is that Nipple Correction is frequently request by men as well. Overly projecting nipples may be too visible even with clothing in place. For men these may be too visible even in a t-shirt or tank top. Obviously, these can be covered with band-aides or nipple covers or “shields” easily available in many stores and even on-line.
It is also possible that the nipple is too wide in diameter, or even a combination of too wide and too protruding can exist. We have seen patients for Nipple Correction in Newport Beach, and Orange County for more than twenty years and it has been a consistently requested procedure during that time. Nipple Augmentation particularly with injectable products such as Juvéderm seem to more commonly follow social and fashion trends. Injectable Nipple Augmentation is a very simple and quick treatment that can be reversed if the patient finds that it doesn’t achieve their desired goal.
Nipple Augmentation
Surgical Nipple Reduction
This is a very simple outpatient treatment that can be done in the office with local anesthetic. It is very quick and heals in a few days with little down time from daily activities. Dissolving sutures are used and the aftercare is quite simple. Pain is generally managed with Tylenol or Advil. Non-surgical nipple reduction options are discussed above.

Both women and men may have “puffy nipples” which will require tightening the areola and sometimes removal of breast tissue from underneath the nipple. Men can also suffer from enlarged or inverted nipples which can be reduced in a similar manner to what has been discussed above.

Nipple Augmentation particularly with injectable products such as Juvéderm seem to more commonly follow social and fashion trends. Injectable Nipple Augmentation is a very simple and quick treatment that can be reversed if the patient finds that it doesn’t achieve their desired goal.
Nipple Augmentation
Surgical Nipple Reduction
This is a very simple outpatient treatment that can be done in the office with local anesthetic. It is very quick and heals in a few days with little down time from daily activities. Dissolving sutures are used and the aftercare is quite simple. Pain is generally managed with Tylenol or Advil. Non-surgical nipple reduction options are discussed above.
These treatments can be found on our YouTube link channel or Pacific Center for Plastic Surgery web site add link
Inverted Nipple Correction
This is a surprising common problem for women, seen in as many as 2% of adult females. This can be bilateral or may occur only on one side. This interferes with the ability to breast feed. It is also a source of embarrassment for many post-adolescent women especially with current trends in social media allowing the viewing of other women to be readily accessible.
For some women, the nipple can be pushed out or may come out naturally with cold as the Areola contracts. This can occur with adolescent breast development, after breast feeding, trauma or a growth in the breast tissue.
Surgical Correction of inverted nipples is also a simple operation for most women that can be done in the office as a brief procedure with local anesthesia. It requires very small incisions that generally become invisible. Although the breast ducts are frequently affected by the surgery, we use techniques of duct sparing surgery that provides a greater chance to preserve some duct function and sensation. It is common to perform inverted nipple surgery at the same time as another breast operation such as breast augmentation, mastopexy, breast reduction or breast revision surgery.
Again, when deciding to have the surgery, our patients must accept the possibility that the ducts will not work and allow breast feeding. They will also have a high risk of diminished sensation. That being said, the majority of our patients are overwhelmingly happy to have the correction of their nipples.
Non-surgical inverted nipple correction is best accomplished with a device such as the Phillips AVENT Niplette. This is a device, shaped like a thimble that attaches to the nipple with a small amount of suction, pulling the nipple out of its inverted position.
Areola reduction
The areola may be enlarged with breast development. Conditions such as tuberous breasts frequently have larger areolas. This can also be seen with large breasts, weight gain, asymmetries, pregnancy, and breast feeding.
The reduction generally requires a periareola or “donut-type” excision. Again, this can be done with local anesthetic in the office. There will initially be some irregularity of the incision with puckering that smoothes over 4 or 5 months. This is the same procedure used for the periareola breast lift or mastopexy.
Nipple surgery and Areola Surgery for Men
Both women and men may have “puffy nipples” which will require tightening the areola and sometimes removal of breast tissue from underneath the nipple. Men can also suffer from enlarged or inverted nipples which can be reduced in a similar manner to what has been discussed above.

About 3 years ago my right nipple inverted and I get a hard mass beside or under the inverted nipple & hurts. Is this normal?

with regard to inverted nipples
Plastic Surgery, The Naked Truth about Nipple Correction
To begin with, many women refer to the part of the breast with the Areola and Nipple as “The Nipple”. Let’s discuss anatomy for a moment. The nipple is the part that generally protrudes out from the center of what is actually the Areola. The Areola is the larger pigmented, generally round area usually centered on the breast. The pigment and shape can vary depending on ethnicity, genetics, pregnancy and so forth. The areola can be extremely pale and the edge hard to distinguish from the rest of the breast skin. On the other hand, it can be large, very dark and even elevated from the skin as a small “cap”. There may also be small bumps on the areola called Montgomery tubercles. These can enlarge with pregnancy, breast feeding or periods.
There are a variety of surgical and non-surgical treatments for each of these anatomic breast parts. Nipple correction is often requested for correction of inversion, repair from piercings or traumatic injuries, reduction of an overly wide or projecting nipple or enlargement for nipples that are not projecting enough.
Areola correction is generally requested for areolas that are asymmetric, too large, or too projecting. Overly projecting areolas are commonly seen in patients who have a tuberous or tubular breast condition.
Most of these procedures can be done in the office under local anesthesia with minimal or no down time and quick healing. All of these procedures may interfere with breast feeding, or change and diminish sensation, so this must be considered by the patient before proceeding with a procedure.
Nipple Reduction
Correction of protruding nipples and correction of inverted nipples (ones that actually are “retracted “into the areola are the two most commonly requested procedures. Of interest is that Nipple Correction is frequently request by men as well. Overly projecting nipples may be too visible even with clothing in place. For men these may be too visible even in a t-shirt or tank top. Obviously, these can be covered with band-aides or nipple covers or “shields” easily available in many stores and even on-line.
It is also possible that the nipple is too wide in diameter, or even a combination of too wide and too protruding can exist. We have seen patients for Nipple Correction in Newport Beach, and Orange County for more than twenty years and it has been a consistently requested procedure during that time. Nipple Augmentation particularly with injectable products such as Juvéderm seem to more commonly follow social and fashion trends.

The Naked Surgeon: The Truth about Breast Augmentation for Transgender Women
Breast augmentation for "male-to-female (MTF)" patients is "feminizing" top surgery and a gender-affirming procedure for transfeminine patients that can help create natural-looking breasts and improve self-esteem. The goal is to feminize a patient's appearance and improve their mental health, sexual confidence, and overall quality of life.
Breast augmentation is a significant step in the journey of many transgender women towards aligning their bodies with their gender identity. This is often termed top feminizing surgery or MTF (male to female breast augmentation). It's a deeply personal decision that can have a profound impact on self-confidence and overall well-being. The goal is to make the patient’s appearance more feminine by creating natural appearing and feeling breasts. This gender affirming operation will often improve our patient's self-esteem in the process of transitioning to a female appearance and life. It is also a process that comes with many questions and considerations as does any breast surgery. In this document, I will attempt to provide answers to some of the most frequently asked questions about breast augmentation for transgender women.
1. What is breast augmentation?
Breast augmentation, also known as augmentation mammoplasty, is a surgical procedure to increase the size and enhance the shape of the breasts. This is typically achieved through the benefit of silicone breast implants or by transferring fat from another part of the body to the breasts (natural breast augmentation).
2. Why do transgender women undergo breast augmentation?
Transgender women may choose breast augmentation as part of their transition to align their physical appearance with their gender identity. For many, having breasts that are more in line with their gender identity can alleviate dysphoria and is gender affirming for them.
3. Am I a good candidate for breast augmentation?
The decision to undergo breast augmentation is highly personal and should be made in consultation with a qualified healthcare provider. Generally, good candidates for breast augmentation are in good overall health, have realistic expectations about the outcome of the procedure, and are emotionally prepared for the physical and emotional changes that come with it.
4. What are the different types of breast implants available?
There are several types of breast implants available, including saline implants, structural saline implants, and silicone implants. Each type has its own advantages and considerations, and the choice of implant type will depend on factors such as personal preference, body type, and desired outcome. The implants come in a variety of profiles to help create the best contours for each patient's different body type.
5. How is the breast augmentation procedure performed?
The breast augmentation procedure typically involves making incisions under the breasts, in the armpit, or through the belly button. I then create a pocket, or space for the implant, and then insert the implant either behind the breast tissue or beneath the chest pectoralis muscle. The specific details of the procedure will depend on factors such as the type of implant used, the desired size and shape of the breasts, and the surgeon's technique.
6.What type of anaesthesia is used?
Most generally, I prefer my patients to be asleep for this procedure, which is quite short, usually less than one hour. I will place local anesthesia around the breast at the beginning and end of the case to allow for comfortable healing.
7. What is the recovery like after surgery?
Recovery time after breast augmentation can vary from person to person, but most individuals can expect to take a few days off from work or other activities to recover. During this time, it's important to follow all the post-operative instructions carefully, which may include wearing lightly compressive sports bra and avoid strenuous activity. Most discomfort can be controlled with ibuprofen or extra strength Tylenol.
8. What are the potential risks and complications of breast augmentation?
Like any surgical procedure, breast augmentation carries some risks and potential complications. These may include infection, bleeding, changes in nipple sensation, implant rupture or leakage, and capsular contracture (the formation of scar tissue around the implant). Capsular contracture occurs in about 5% of my patients. Complications such as bleeding and infection are very rare. The most common reason for additional surgery is the patient's decision to change the size of the implant.
9. How much does breast augmentation cost?
The cost of breast augmentation will depend in part on the facility where I do the surgery and the type of implants used. The range is usually $15-18,000 dollars complete including all follow-up care indefinitely. We do not take insurance plans in our office.
10. How do I find a qualified surgeon for breast augmentation?
Finding a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon for breast augmentation is essential for achieving safe and satisfactory results. When selecting a surgeon, be sure to research their credentials, experience, and reputation, and ask for before-and-after photos of previous patients. Additionally, it's important to schedule a consultation with the surgeon to discuss your goals, concerns, and expectations for the procedure. We are happy to provide initial virtual consultations for patients who are not close to our office.
Conclusion
Breast augmentation can be a transformative step in the journey of transgender women towards aligning their bodies with their gender identity. By addressing common questions and concerns about the procedure, I hope to provide valuable information to help individuals make informed decisions about breast augmentation and achieve their best possible outcome.

Lite Lift
Hi I had a Lite Lift with Dr Horowitz in October 2019. I could see my age creep up a bit, but every plastic surgeon I saw felt I was not at a point for a Facelift or a Mini Facelift. My jowls were sunk in and my nasal labial folds were pronounced. I came across Dr Horowitz while looking for a surgeon in 2018. I did a lot of research and even almost flew to Dr Jacono in NYC. After reading reviews and going to Newport Beach to meet Dr Horowits I felt confident that he could achieve great results with his Lite Lift procedure. I had the surgery in October 2019 and it cost about $12500 from what I remember. The recovery sucked for a few days. You can barely open your mouth and chew so make sure u have soup, mashed potatoes and ice cream available for your recovery. You also will not be able to open your mouth for the first week to be able to use a spoon so you need a fork to help you. Dr Horowitz was available 24/7and gave me a cell number to reach him. No answering service waiting stuff. He is serious and dedicated to his patient care. The pain was kinda bad for the first few days but I did not want him to prescribe me any pain medication because I don't like the feeling that comes with taking narcotics. Please don't do what I did. Take the pain medicine, as it will make the recovery better. My results were natural and amazing!!! Some hidden scars in my hair and behind my ears but other than that. I look great...I am 48 almost 49 and still pass for a late 20's early 30's. Of course good skin care helps but this procedure bumped it up a huge notch. I was so impressed I went back in July 2020 and had a temple lift/brow lift. Thank you Dr Horowitz and team!!!

Amazing Doctor
Dr Horowitz is an amazingly kind, considerate and talented doctor. He really demonstrates that he cares. His staff is caring and genuine! He performed several procedures on my husband four years ago and now it is my turn. My only regret is that I didn’t go to him sooner!

I had an amazing experience for my right breast revision on 3/12/2019!!
I had a right breast revision on 3/12/19. Two years ago I had a breast augmentation. During the winter of last year, I noticed my right breast was smaller and felt hard lumps on both sides of that particular breast. I had my primary physician checkup complete with a mammogram and ultrasound to rule out malignancy. Made an appointment to see Dr. Horowitz and we agreed that it was a possible deflation. Contacted the implant company and set up the surgery date & time with Plastic Surgery. Karla, the nurse provided me with detailed prep-op instructions 2 weeks before surgery. On surgery day, I came in early afternoon for an in office procedure and was given Ativan to help relax. I am such a lightweight when it comes to meds that I slept through the whole procedure. On the day of follow-up, Dr. H asked me how I was doing and I resoundingly said “Wonderful!” I jokingly asked him, “Did you even performed the procedure?” This is due to not having had any pain or tightness hours or days after the procedure. I even had to remind myself to not raise or stretch my right arm above my head. What a difference between the first and the second procedure! My right breast revision has been an amazing, painless procedure!! I highly recommend Dr. Jed Horowitz for his expertise, knowledge and congeniality. The office and licensed staff were all wonderful, friendly and accommodating every time we have come in for a visit. Thank you everyone! You all are awesome!!!
Response from Dr.Jed H. Horowitz, MD, FACSThank you for posting such a detailed account about your breast revision experience. While it is unfortunate you had to undergo another surgery, we are certainly pleased everything went smoothly and you are now good to go!

Pacific Center For Plastic Surgery
I absolutely LOVE this place! I went to many places to get consultations and this place just felt right. Once I spoke with Dr. Horowitz, he really shows he cares about his patients and the staff is so amazing. Everyone in that office is a delight to see again and everyone there makes the experience the best. I got an augmentation back in August and everything went so smooth. I was absolutely no pain after surgery, recovery was amazing! I was so happy! I had developed capsular contracture, it’s rare but it happened. I spoke with Dr. Horowitz and immediately he was quick to take care of me. I end up having corrective surgery and it went really well. Dr. Horowitz and his staff took really good care of me. I highly recommend Newport Plastic Surgery center for anyone looking to correct or improve any parts of their body. I’m 5’4’ and I had a B cup, and after my augmentation I went to a full C and I couldn’t be happier with the new me. I workout a lot and when I get my body nice and tone, I lose my boobs. Now I will never have to worry about that again.
Response from Dr.Jed H. Horowitz, MD, FACSWe appreciate you taking the time to write about your surgical experience with our office. We know you had many options to choose from and are humbled you chose our practice.

Fabulous Natural Neck/ lite lift
10 years ago I gained weight during treatment for breast cancer. I finally lost the weight & at 68 I am happily cancer free & healthy! My only visual reminder was the “ waddle “ under my chin/ neck. I consulted w Dr. Horowitz stating I wanted to look as natural as possible. I was back at work 10 days post- op & none of my clients suspected I had undergone plastic surgery. I only got questions/ comments like “ did u change your hair “ or “ you look rested”. Friends & family who were skeptical & or said I didn’t “ need “ the work think I look great! I did this for myself & am totally happy w the results! The staff at the Bio Spa were great & I highly recommend Dr. Horowitz!!
Response from Dr.Jed H. Horowitz, MD, FACSWe are thankful to have been a part of your transformation after surviving cancer and that you were able to experience all of the benefits of our LiteLift.

Highly Recommend
Dr. Horowitz was very honest and friendly. He made time to answer my long list of questions and assured me that my desired result was possible. He was right, I am glad I trusted him because he gave me exactly what I was looking for! I am very impressed and would recommend Dr. Horowitz to anyone looking into plastic surgery.

Couldn't Be Happier!
I had a breast augmentation done by Dr Horowitz 5 years ago and I honestly could not be happier. Not only did I gain confidence in myself but I gained the ability to be more comfortable in my clothing. As odd as it may seem my favorite thing is that I can now go without a bra and know that I still have the uplifted breast that I have always wanted. I have always had back and shoulder issues and since my surgery I am able to just wear a bando rather than a bra which has relieved me of my shoulder pain. I am so happy that I had the procedure done.
Response from Dr.Jed H. Horowitz, MD, FACSWe are happy to hear you are enjoying your results! And, thank you for posting your review.

Confident and comfortable
Dr. Horowitz is both very friendly and professional. He made me feel comfortable throughout the entire process from consultation to procedure. He was also understanding during the time that I was going to different doctors for consultations and ended up choosing him for my surgery because I was referred to him by a friend, but after seeing other consults I felt even more confident in my decision to choose him not just based on a referral, but after doing research of various doctors, visiting RealSelf, and seeing him in person. His office and staff are so wonderful, and they made me feel comfortable the entire time, which to me was very important when it comes to such a personal procedure. I would definitely recommend him and although I was hesitant in the beginning about the procedure in general I am so happy that I decided to do it.
Response from Dr.Jed H. Horowitz, MD, FACSThank you for posting a detailed account of your exprience. Your feedback is very helpful to others who are beginning to research which doctor to go to for their specific needs.
