How to Correct Tubular Breasts Without Implants? What could make my breast more round?

To give you a helpful answer to your question, I would need to see some photos of your breasts as there is a wide variety of tubular breast shapes. Yes, a circumareolar mastopexy (donut lift) has been a long standing good procedure to utilize with or without implants to address many of the issues in tubular breasts. Sometimes, an implant is quite helpful to smooth out discrepancies between the areolar shape and breast shape. If your breasts can benefit from an implant, then do the whole procedure once you have saved your money (or use Care Credit). Good luck.

There is a new technique called The Mini Ultimate Breast Lift.  Using only a circumareola incision it is possible to reshape your breast tissue creating upper pole fullness, elevate them higher on the chest wall and more medial to increase your cleavage.  Aligning the areola and breast tissue over the bony prominence of the chest wall maximizes anterior projection without an implant.  After this is performed, if you are dissatisfied with the size fat can be injected.

One of the few indications for a doughnut mastopexy is correction of a constricted breast. At the same time as resizing in flattening the over projection of the areola the base of the breast is released and allowed to expand.
