Supernumerary Nipple Removal Cost?

User Avatar
PacificNortwestGirlJul 24, 2013
I have a Supernumerary nipple located right below my right breast which I thought was a mole up until recently, when it started to have cyclical pain and it was determined by my doctor that it was a third nipple. It causes me pain when I wear a bra with an underwire and I would like to know the cost for removal, if insurance covers it or part of it, and if it should be performed by a plastic surgeon or a dermatologist. It is very small but the issue I have with it is the cyclical pain.

Moles can be removed quite easily from the penis, and without much pain, so don't worry about that!

Although removing moles by any method from the face is likely to leave a small scar, scalpel sculpting, which involves no deep cutting or stitches has, in my experience, proven quite successful for achieving gratifying aesthetic results while leaving little, or often barely perceptible, scars...

The pulsed dye laser and fractional co2 lasers are used to improve scarring after mole removal. Both options are excellent in my practice. Raffy Karamanoukian, Los Angeles
