Through a series of 7 patients (8 nipples), we present a technique for the correction of nipple inversion. We use a micro-knife to divide the shortened ducts and fibrous tissues, as well as an internal cerclage suture and reverse strictureplasty skin closure to effectively correct and maintain the position of the inverted nipple. The advantages of the proposed technique include its simplicity, effectiveness in severe cases, and long-lasting results.
