- Nipple Reduction Inversion Correction in Bahrain
An Overview:
Nipple reduction surgery is a procedure to reduce the size or length of the nipple, typically for cosmetic reasons. It can be done on one or both nipples and is often performed as part of a breast reduction, breast lift, or breast augmentation surgery.
Inverted nipple correction surgery, on the other hand, is a procedure to correct nipples that are turned inward instead of pointing outward. Inverted nipples can be a cosmetic concern or cause difficulties with breastfeeding. The procedure involves releasing the milk ducts and supporting tissues that cause the inversion, allowing the nipple to project outward.

The procedure
Dr. Salil assesses your health, potential benefits, risks, and expected outcomes before recommending and doing the nipple reduction in Bahrain.
Nipple size reduction can be made alone or with other procedures such as nipple inversion correction, breast augmentation, breast lift, or breast reduction.
The procedure is performed under local anesthesia (as per surgeon’s discretion), which involves applying numbing cream and injecting anesthesia into the surgical area.
During the surgery, a doughnut-shaped tissue is removed from the base of the nipple to make it shorter and more proportional to the breast. The remaining tissue is then pushed backwards. Alternatively, a wedge of tissue can be removed to make the nipple less broad. These techniques provide long-lasting results.

It is important to know the following information before your surgery day:
1)Pre-surgery instructions regarding food, drink, and medication
2)Arrangements for transportation to pick you up from the hospital after discharge
