Nipple And Areola Reconstruction

Wisconsin rates for HCPCS 19350

A reconstructive procedure that rebuilds the nipple and the darker skin around it, the areola, using the patient's own tissue, typically as one of the final steps after breast reconstruction following a mastectomy. It restores a natural-looking nipple-areola appearance rather than removing any breast tissue.
