comprehensive consultation with Dr. Holland

A comprehensive consultation for nipple surgery, including nipple reconstruction, inverted nipple repair, or nipple reduction, involves a thorough evaluation and discussion of the patient's concerns and goals. The consultation begins with a review of the patient's medical history and a detailed physical examination of the nipples to assess their current anatomy. Based on this assessment, Dr. Holland explains the available options for nipple surgery and discusses the potential outcomes, risks, and benefits associated with each procedure. Cost and financing information is provided, and preparation and recovery instructions are given if the patient decides to proceed with surgery. This comprehensive approach allows patients to make informed decisions and achieve their desired improvements in nipple appearance and function.

what to expect


The nipple surgery process typically involves completing the procedure in the office setting under local anesthesia, allowing the patient to remain awake during the treatment. This can be performed as a standalone procedure or combined with other breast surgeries, such as breast augmentation or mastopexy. During the procedure, Dr. Holland carefully reshapes the nipples to address concerns such as inversion, size reduction, or reconstruction. Afterward, patients can expect minimal downtime and discomfort. Dr. Holland is available around the clock in case any urgent issues arise following the procedure. This approach offers flexibility and personalized care tailored to each patient's needs and desired outcomes.

NIPPLE RECONSTRUCTION:

Nipple reconstruction, where a new nipple is formed, can be completed following breast cancer surgery. Dr. Holland also performs nipple reconstruction for cosmetic purposes.

INVERTED NIPPLE REPAIR:

Inverted nipple repair is a surgical procedure aimed at correcting nipples that are turned inward. Through delicate techniques, Dr. Holland releases tissue constriction, allowing the nipple to project outward naturally. This not only improves appearance but also restores sensitivity and functionality. Recovery involves mild discomfort and swelling, but the results are aesthetically pleasing.

NIPPLE REDUCTION:

Nipple reduction surgery reshapes and resizes overly large or protruding nipples. Excess tissue is removed, creating a more balanced and aesthetically pleasing appearance. It's a quick in-office procedure with minimal downtime, resulting in improved nipple symmetry.

post-treatment care

Post-treatment care following nipple surgery involves gentle wound care to promote healing and prevent infection. Patients may experience mild discomfort or swelling, which can be managed with over-the-counter pain medication as needed. It's important to follow Dr. Holland’s instructions. Most patients can resume normal activities within a few days to a week after the procedure. Regular follow-up appointments are scheduled to monitor healing progress and ensure optimal results. By adhering to these post-treatment care guidelines, patients can achieve the desired improvements in nipple appearance with minimal disruption to their daily routine.
