Inverted Nipple Surgery
Inverted or “shy” nipples, in which one or both of the nipples pull inside rather than outward, are thought to affect 10–20% of women. A simple procedure that may be performed with local anaesthetic surgery will fix the issue.

"Fantastic experience from the team at Signature from start to finish. I had bilateral nipple correction in September 2023 and couldn’t be happier with the results. I was nervous but the team treated me with care, kindness and professionalism. A huge thanks to Dr Alsayed, the theatre team and Aftercare team for making it easy for me!"
"What an incredible transformation! Ive felt so self-conscious about my chest all my life. Even at my skinniest I always seemed to have something there. Turns out it wasn't just fat but my milk glands were slightly large. The surgeon did such an amazing job cutting round my nipple. Removing the glands. Liposuction around outside. With a total invisible scar. Amazing job. Amazing service. Would recommend it to anyone!"
