Nipples are an important part of breasts and play an important role in sexuality and motherhood. Some women have inverted nipples, enlarged nipples, enlarged areolas and puffy areolas. Let’s take a quick look at what these problems are and how these can be corrected.

Inverted Nipples: As many as 2% of American women have at least one inverted nipple. The degree to which a nipple is inverted will vary from "shy" to severely retracted. There are methods to correct inverted nipples surgically.

Reducing Enlarged Nipples: For many women, their desire for breast enhancement begins with more beautiful nipples. A simple outpatient surgery can reduce the length or diameter of one or both nipples.

Reducing Enlarged Areolas: The areola can impact the appearance of the breasts more than any other feature. Women who are self-conscious about the dimensions of their areolas can turn to surgery for a quick fix.

Correcting Puffy or Protuberant Areolas: "Puffy" areolas put a cone-like cap on the breasts that some people find unattractive. A simple surgery can flatten the areola and beautify the breasts.
