Could Perlane be used for nipple correction?

I've heard that people have corrected and augmented inverted nipples using dermal fillers. Is Perlane a good choice, or would another filler be better?

I think all the fillers could be used in this area. It would depend on how much inversion there was and how long you wanted it to last. Radiesse does last longer but is not correctable if you didn't like it. Perlane is a bigger molecule and you could use it if you have more correction to do than Restylane for example. You could use Perlane and it would be correctable if you didn't like it.

Yes, Perlane can be used for nipple correction. Because the amount of product used for this type of procedure is small, you would probably want to reach for a .4cc of Restylane, which would minimize the cost and still provide plenty of product.
