Nipple Reconstruction

Nipple reconstruction refers to creating the nipple-areola complex, including the projected part of the nipple and possibly the outline of the areola. It is commonly performed on patients who have lost the nipple during a mastectomy (or other reasons for nipple loss such as complication of breast lift or reduction or traumatic loss). Since the breast skin is used, the color or pigment for the nipple and areola must be added later via nipple tattooing. The color chosen depends on patient preference and whether or not one matches the opposite nipple.
