What are the chances nipples will revert back to inverted after inverted nipple correction surgery?

Thank you for your question.  There is a small, but present, chance that corrective nipple surgery may regress back to an inverted state.  The chances are less than 20%. I can understand your apprehension, but I would recommend you see a board certified plastic surgeon for an in-person examination.  Based on your severity of nipple inversion, the risk of recurrence can better be addressed.  

In my experience, if your nipples do not relapse by six months after surgery, they won't. This is plenty long enough for scar tissue to develop and maintain the eversion. it also depends on the type of correction.

I appreciate your question.There is always a possibility of this happening.The best way to prevent this is to cut the ducts and tissue that are holding the nipple inward. This can interfere with breast feeding.The best way to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam.Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative breast surgery.best of luck!Dr Schwartz
