Question

Ronald Schuster, MD · Answer

I would suggest waiting 1-2 years after puberty is complete. so probably 16-18 is about right. it's never too early to speak to a surgeon in order to get the best facts. Also I would suggest speaking to your parents if you are still living with them.

I would think the age of 18 year would be acceptable. As for fees the range from $1,000 to $2,000...

Anthony Youn, MD · Answer

Although there is no specific age you need to be for inverted nipple surgery (besides being over 18), it is important to realize that for most techniques to evert the nipple, the ducts to the end of the nipple need to be cut. This can prevent the ability to breastfeed in the future. Therefore, if you are considering getting pregnant, then it may be a consideration to wait for the surgery until after you are done having children.As far as cost, it varies by area, of course. The surgery can often be done under a local anesthetic in an office setting, but can still cost upwards of $1000-$2000.Good luck!
