Nipple areola reconstruction is an integral part of breast reconstruction and serves as the "cherry on top" of the reconstructed breast. These delicate tissues need protection and stabilization. There are many techniques to dress skin grafts and the NAC. The ideal NAC dressing should not be bulky and should stent the nipple. Having less bulk enables the patient to wear a bra immediately after the procedure to reduce edema. We have developed a dressing for nipple areola reconstruction which has all these qualities and more. This is a very cost-effective, fast, and easy to perform technique. There have been no adverse outcomes, and it can be accomplished within a few minutes.Level of Evidence V This journal requires that authors assign a level of evidence to each article.

乳头乳晕重建是乳房重建的重要组成部分，是重建乳房的“点睛之笔”。这些娇嫩的组织需要保护和固定。有许多技术可以覆盖皮瓣和乳头乳晕复合体。理想的乳头乳晕复合体覆盖物不应过大，且应支撑乳头。较小的体积可以使患者在手术后立即穿上胸罩，以减少肿胀。我们开发了一种用于乳头乳晕重建的覆盖物，它具有所有这些优点，甚至更多。这种技术非常经济实惠、快速且易于操作。目前尚未出现不良后果，几分钟内即可完成。证据等级 V 本刊要求作者为每篇文章指定一个证据等级。有关这些循证医学评级的完整描述，请参考目录或在线作者指南 https://www.springer.com/00266 。
