METHOD 01
Mammary Duct Preserving Method (Breastfeeding possible)
Case of Wide Nipple
The upper part of the nipple is excised and sutured
in order to reduce the width.Case of Long Nipple
In order to shorten the length, excessive tissues are removed and the nipple is
sutured back to the areola. The width can be reduced together as well. -
METHOD 02
Mammary Duct Non-Preserving Method (Breastfeeding impossible)
