Surgical Correction Of An Inverted Nipple

Maryland rates for HCPCS 19355

This procedure surgically corrects one or both nipples that turn inward instead of pointing outward, a condition called nipple inversion. The surgeon releases the shortened ducts and tissue pulling the nipple inward and reshapes it to project normally. It can be done for cosmetic reasons or to help with breastfeeding difficulties, usually as an outpatient procedure.
