Inverted
nipples - the problem...
A
source of frustration and/or embarrassment
for many women whether for cosmetic reasons
or when causing difficulties with breastfeeding.
The Inverted nipple is evident as a slit
or hole in the breast at the location of
the nipple. It is normally possible to pull
the nipple out manually but in some cases
the inversion is so severe it is not possible
for the nipple(s) to become even partially
erect*. Flat or inverted nipples can present
a special problem for women wishing to breastfeed
as this condition can make it very difficult
or even impossible for baby to latch on.
* If the degree of inversion is very severe it may not be possible to use the Niplette to effect a cure. In these cases please consult with your G.P.
** If one or both nipples have become inverted 'out of the blue' or over a period of several weeks or months where previously the nipple(s) were not inverted we recommend that you consult with your G.P without delay - sudden inversion can indicate a condition requiring prompt medical attention.
How does the Avent Niplette cure inverted nipples?
A modern soloution...
The unique and revolutionary Avent Niplette® provides a permanent cure for inverted nipples. Through gentle suction the Avent Niplette® pulls the nipple out into a small plastic thimble-like cup. In a matter of weeks of continued wear the nipple inversion can be fully corrected.
Your secret...
Worn
tucked into your bra day or night, no one
will know as the Avent Niplette® painlessly
sucks your nipple out into a small thimble-shaped
cup. Your skin tissue is gradually stretched
and in one to three months of continuous
wear, your nipple(s) will look perfectly
normal and will be able to become erect
in response to stimulation.
Non surgical...
Until recently, the only effective method of correction was surgery, involving sectioning of the lactiferous ducts under anaesthetic. Though surgery achieves cosmetic correction, it effectively destroys breast function and therefore rules out breastfeeding for good. High costs also make it a less than ideal solution.
