How Are Nipples Repositioned?

There are many techniques available to reposition the nipple and areola following breast lifts (mastopexy). Most involve either revising or completely redoing your mastopexy. The procedures available and best suited to an individual depend largely on which technique was used to perform the original mastopexy. This can be best determined by your current plastic surgeon. If you chose to obtain a second opinion with another plastic surgeon, it would be helpful to provide him or her with your operative records that describe in detail what was done during the original operation.
I know this is not the definitive answer you are seeking but I hope this will be of some help to you. Good luck I hope you achieve the changes you seek.

Nipples are repositioned by removing some of the surrounding skin, sliding the nipple into the new position, and then closing the incisions with a plastic surgery technique.
