Nipples which protrude too much or which are too long can be congenital or a result of breastfeeding. If you suffer from enlarged or puffy nipples it may impact on your confidence and can be embarrassing when changing in public or when wearing particularly tight clothing. This can be distressing and can cause patients to cover up, often affecting their self-esteem.
Fortunately, the projection of the nipple can be corrected with this procedure that is performed under local anaesthesia.
