If Had an Unsuccessful Nipple Inversion Correction Surgery Twice, Will Implants Help?

January 5, 2012
Asked By:OdranidL in philadelphia, pa

I've had 2 nipple correction surgeries, one in hospital under general anesthesia and then again in office w a local in office procedure, both unsuccessful. Both nipples are grade III inverted. I've consulted a second doctor and he looked over records and confirmed everything was done by the book and should have worked. He was at a loss - would implants help correct this since the fibers holding the nipple have been severed? Very insecure and desperate, help!
