Philips AVENT Niplette for Inverted Nipples, 2 Pack, SCF152/02

I would agree that this is an effective product. One thing I learned the hard way is that this will take time and patience. A lot of reviews complained that it's impossibly painful, but I wonder if that's due to overuse; people have to understand that although results won't happen overnight. At first, I was using it every night and pulling the plunger thing all the way. A lot of women might do this. It does hurt, but easy does it! I also realized that if I 1) didn't want to be sore every single day while I'm "treating" flat nipples, and 2) I didn't want the father of my child to watch me cringe whenever we're intimate, I needed a less painful schedule that still produced results. I began using it every other day, pulling the plunger just until I feel pressure. Having tender/sore breasts is part of pregnancy, hence the reason for wearing a bra at nighttime if desired. That's a good thing because the bra not only hides this ingenious contraption, but also helps hold it in place overnight. I'm seeing results indefinitely, and I've only been using it for just over a month!! With that said, the moral of the story is: *patience IS a virtue*, and essential when using this product. You don't need to overkill on using it in order to see results. It can be done without putting yourself through so much unnecessary excruciating pain. Also, yes, it will cause your nipples to be a little sore. You're exposing skin that hasn't seen the light of day, well, ever. When using this as directed, you slowly increase the pressure by pulling the plunger a little more. How often/much? That depends on you and your body type. I use mine about 3 days per week (every other day), and I'm up to feeling comfortable to pull the plunger to the halfway point. (Note: once your nipple fills the cup to the end and the pain, sensitivity and pressure is gone, you've effectively resolved the problem). I don't recommend using this in the third trimester, though and neither does my doctor. You already have to deal with Braxton-Hicks (for those of you who don't know: false contractions that your body does to 'practice' getting ready for labor). Wrapping it up: this product is amazing! It's worth every penny! I highly recommend this to any women needing to correct/improve flat or inverted nipples. I'm confident in being able to properly breastfeed my second baby without the pressure from hospital staff and devastation of not having the chance to provide for my daughter in that way. It also broke my heart that I was unable to bond with her on that level. La Lechè league is also a valuable resource that will assist you in becoming a super pro when it comes to any breastfeeding problem (including letdown, proper latching for smoother feedings, etc). Between using this product (endorsed by LA Lechè league), and their support, I'm looking forward to the opportunity to have a strong breastfeeding routine with my baby when he/she is born. One more thing: I read a few reviews on the plastic being too hard as well as having problems keeping them in place. First of all, there are NO sharp edges, but it may feel that way if you're pulling the plunger too hard, which will results in pain. As for them not staying in place, this is resolved a very simple way (and listed in the directions): use Lanolin, Aquaphor (that's what I use), Vaseline or other product with care. It does keep tender skin soft and soothes during "treatment", but if you use too much, suction is impossible. It doesn't matter what form moisturizer used to help keep these in place, a little goes a very long way!

If your nips are inverted like mine were this will definitely help with your Breastfeeding journey, it definitely helped me. Just need consistency, little by little. Also I didn't have trouble with fit,I think it will fit most nip types and is somewhat soft you can wear under clothes at night. I did notice they would create some time of condensation if you can call it that and would come off but not bad,not leakage though. The design is very simple and most importantly helps a lot and safe you money in the long run.

So, these things work. After washing them, attach the syringe, rub a little water along the rim, place on your nipple, hold in place with one hand and pull the plunger to the desired suction. They will stay on. I just put a bra on over the niplettes, and they stay in place for hours. I have tried sleeping in them though, and even with a bra, I manage to dislodge them. I bought these to draw out my almost flat nipples, and I use them daily. I’ve only had them a couple of weeks, and I can already tell a difference. I have rather wide nipples but they fit inside the cup just fine. Initially, when I drew the plunger up, my nipple would stretch to fill about half of the niplette. There was absolutely no pain so I wore them for several hours beginning on the first day. There was no pain when I removed them, and no blisters or white spots. The only difference was that I had firm, perky nipples. They were more sensitive which was fine with me. On subsequent days, I continued to wear them for several hours, usually as soon as I got home until bedtime. (I would love to wear them to work, but even with a padded bra, they create a very noticeable bump, and I don’t think my employer would appreciate my efforts to acquire full time perky nipples. Maybe I’ll try boob tape or something.) Anyway, after about a week, I decided I could probably draw the plunger out further, so I did. This really elongates the nipples, which I love. After a lifetime of flat nipples, seeing them pop out is so exciting. I can now (day 16) draw the plunger out to the point that my nipple almost touches the end of the cup. I’m sad about this because I know I could stretch them further if there were more room. It’s not that I want them to be that long permanently, but I feel like the further they stretch, the more likely I am to end up with permanently protruding nipples. I also got a pair of Nip Xtenders, but I used those and while they do elongate the nipples, they also widen them, whereas the Niplettes just elongate mine. I like the elongation as that’s what I’m seeking. Now, when I wake up in the morning and get ready to shower, one of my nipples stands out about 3 millimeters and the other about 2 millimeters. Initially, one nipple stuck out about a millimeter and the other was flat. I will continue wearing these for the recommended three months and beyond if I can still tell a difference. I would love to have nipples that always protrude around a centimeter. If something happens to these, I will definitely purchase again.

I've had inverted nipples my whole life. I'm in my mid-twenties, so at this point between comments and comparisons from sisters, gym locker rooms, and significant others I'd pretty much accepted the way they looked. I'd embraced the fact that I was going to look "not normal" unless I got surgery--which I can't afford and was iffy about to begin with since there's a risk of losing sensitivity. I had read up on nipple eversion products used for breast feeding and felt weird even thinking about ordering this product since I'm young, don't have kids, and don't know anyone my age I'd feel comfortable asking if they'd had this problem too. But even though I told myself it wasn't a big deal and that I love my body etc, etc...I was still really curious whether this might be a way to feel more confident, not just "be ok" with it. I've been using this for a couple of weeks now and I'm very pleased. Based on research I'd say I have one Level 1 and one Level 2 inverted nipple. Both have responded very well to one to two 2-6 hour treatments (either sleeping or when at home) per day. I have a 9-5 job and sometimes am not at home so it's been inconsistent but for the most part, daily. Pros: What usually looked just flat now fills out readily to the touch or with change in temperature. Initially after treatment, both nipples stay perky. No loss of sensitivity. Very simple to use. Cons: If you don't wear padded bras, wearing these during the day is probably a no go. They're very conspicuous and aren't very forgiving if your bra is snug to your chest since they're hard plastic. If you sleep on your stomach or have a tendency to cross your arms right over that area, they can pop off. I'd recommend using Aquaphor or something similar to help with suction and possibly a bit of dryness around new skin exposure. Also be aware that sensitivity increases right after treating so if you have a significant other give them fair warning. I've had minimal discomfort with the application of suction, but sometimes wearing them for the extended time frame causes mild itching or dull ache around the areola. Conclusion: Worth the investment. May not be for everyone, but so far they're working and I'm much happier with how I feel about my body.

OHMYGOSHHH. SO DISAPPOINTED. don't buy it. it's totally not worth it. I was so excited for it because I was having trouble getting my daughter to latch on.. eventually the baby will make the nipple for you, so to speak. I had a bit of a flat nipple problem. unless you have inverted nipples, I don't reccomend it. I truly wish I hadn't wasted my money & got the cheap Lansinoh one at least. it leaks, it draws your milk out, YOU DEFINITELY CAN see it through clothes, not discreet at all, & it doesn't even stay on well/ it's sooo difficult to use. maybe it would be better to use during or before pregnancy, I don't know. all I do know is, that I wasted my money because it did nothing for me.

I have been using this product for a little over 2 weeks now simply for cosmetic reasons and I will say first that I am seeing results, but I am quite disappointed in how horribly they stay on; I wear them while at work and they fall off probably at least 15-20 times during my 6-8 hour shift, I even use Lanolin cream as suggested to help them stay on. If you have a job that requires you to walk/stand I would not recommend wearing them at work unless you have those suckers super glued on since they seem to fall off everytime I walk to the bathroom and/or am standing up, I'm glad I haven't lost one yet or embarassed myself by them falling off in front of another employee. The suction doesn't seem to stay as well it should, being the main problem. I also throughout each night am taking them off and reapplying them just because they seem to lose suction. I have no idea how ANYONE would be able to use this product while sleeping without them falling off throughout the night. With all that said, I have SLOWLY been seeing results which is making it worth the constant effort to keep them on. I will keep trying since they seem to be doing something, I just wish they would stay on without having to worry about them every 5 minutes!! ***Modified to 3 stars because they do not work as good as said/hoped for, maybe temporarily, but do not buy if you're looking for long term results. I've stopped using them, because they didn't do what they were supposed to, they only kind of did it, if that. Really sucks, because I had hoped this would be my savior!

I never really liked my flat nipples, though they did make it easy to go without a bra and not have to worry about them showing through my clothes. Now that I'm pregnant, though, I want to do everything I can to set myself up for successful breastfeeding. Even though I did a lot of research regarding breastfeeding with flat nipples, it was still months before I came across this product. Clearly there needs to be more advertising. I've had great success with the Nipplettes. I have one nipple that seems more cooperative than the other when it comes to reshaping itself, but they've both been very responsive. I wore my Nipplettes during the day along with the Medela SoftShells Breast Soothers that someone else recommended, and that's worked very well for keeping the Nipplettes from getting knocked off by clothing. I just went up one to two cup sizes to accommodate the breast shells comfortably without having them pressed too hard against my skin. At first I was concerned that the one-size-fits-all of the thimble cup would be too big for me, but now I don't feel that way. I also trimmed the plastic tube on the Nipplette by pulling it off of the thimble cup, cutting it with scissors, and then sliding it back onto the arm of the tube. This in no way impeded the suction or the functionality of the Nipplette, but it did allow me to use it optimally with the breast shells. I used Lansinoh Lanolin with the Nipplettes and that is a great product. It does seems to stain your clothes, though. This wasn't a big deal for me when I accidentally got some on my bra, but when I accidentally got some on my shirt, it was ruined. Just be careful with it or use another lotion. I did start having some colostrum show up at around 20 weeks, but it was never enough to cause an issue with the suction. Now that I'm getting into my sixth month of pregnancy, I have stopped wearing the Nipplettes everyday per the instructions. My nipples are still pretty flat when I'm just wearing clothes. They just go into "bra mode" where they're squished flat and are trying to stay out of the way. When they do evert, though, they do evert more than before, and if I use a Nipplette now, they will go almost to the end of the thimble cup right away. I wish Avent would start advertising this more. I know there are a lot of ladies out there who would go out and buy this product right away. I wish I had known about it years before we started preparing for a family.

I had to write a review because this product is awesome. I had one slightly inverted nipple. As in...it did come out but sometimes needed help. The other one is (maybe weirdly) always out and slightly larger. I wanted to get them both looking the same. I thought this product could be a gimmick. But I have been using it for three weeks and it has really made a noticeable difference. The first two weeks I wore it for eight hours a day, roughly. The third week I only wore it for two days. The fourth week (this week), again I have worn it twice. My nipple is much larger and doesn't invert. When I don't have it on for a few days I notice a slight decrease in size and a very, very, very slight inversion, but on the whole there is no problem whatsoever. I'm continuing to use it a couple of times a week because the instructions said it takes about 3 months. I cant wear it in bed as it pops off. But I've had no problem wearing it inside a bra throughout the day and I carry the syringe thing in my bag just in case it pops off at any time. On occasion, my nipple has felt a bit tender and once or twice it has very slightly crusted. But nothing bad. and after a shower it's fine again. I really recommend it ladies. I know everyone's different, but for me, it has worked with very little discomfort or nuisance. Big thumbs up.

Die beste Empfehlung von meiner Hebamme für kleine nippel die man mit dieser Hilfe raus ziehen kann

May be not for me. I bought it after reading several reviews but it didn’t help me.

Yo tenía un pezón invertido, y me fue ayudando a sacarlo un poco, aunque la verdad yo no era muy constante y lo usaba poco, ya después me embaracé y al amamantar mi bebé terminó de hacer el trabajo, pero si recomiendo el producto! Hay que ser constantes

This product is great if you have inverted nipples like I do... Three months and my nipple is staying out.. Thank you :)

very effective
