Systematic literature search evaluates postoperative nipple inversion rates in breast reduction techniques, suggesting areas for improvement.
Breast reduction is generally a safe and effective treatment of symptomatic macromastia.

By way of a systematic literature search and a retrospective review of cases belonging to the senior author, this paper aims to evaluate and compare the rates of nipple inversion following modern techniques of breast reduction, compared to earlier published techniques.
