Plastic Surgery for Pointy, Puffy Nipples in Men - Possible?

September 15, 2010
Asked By:greeneyepeas in USA

I don't have a big saggy breast but I have pointy puffy nipples, they only take a normal shape when I'm swimming in cold water or when I'm cold. Does it require a complicated surgery? Can it be done under local or general anesthethia? and is it pricey? Thank you
