After suspecting for years that I have tuberous breasts, I had a consultation with a PS. His opinion was that I have some degree of the deformity, but he didn't seem completely confident in diagnosing me with it since most tuberous breasts are small. Because of his uncertainty, I would like the opinions of more doctors about my condition and treatment options. Do I have a case of larger-than-normal tuberous breasts? I am 25, have never been pregnant, and have had no major weight fluctuations.
Answer: Tuberous Breast Deformity
Yes most tuberous breasts are small, but you definitely have all of the other symptoms of tuberous breasts including a high riding fold underneath the breasts, widely spaces breasts and herniation of the breast tissue into the nipple causing a very wide nipple appearance. Good luck.

Answer: Label of "Tuberous Breast" Not Necessarily Helpful
Thank you for your photograph and question. Your pictures show that you have a high inframammary fold and a wide distance between your breasts. These are just some of the characteristics of a tuberous breast. You can have an excellent result with a breast lift and you may choose to have an implant if you desire a larger size. Calling your breasts "tuberous" is not really helpful in deciding how to get youa good outcome.

Answer: New alternate technique for tuberous breasts
Your breasts are very ptotic, too far apart with large areolas. You would benefit from a new technique called Breast Augmentation with Mini Ultimate Breast Lift. Using only a circumareola incision it is possible to place the implant, reshape your breast tissue to increase upper pole fullness and move the breast more medial to increase cleavage. Aligning the areola, breast tissue and implant high on the chest wall over the bony prominence will give you the maximum anterior projection with a minimal size implant. Whether you have a case of tuberous breasts or not is irrelevant. You would be an excellent candidate for this new technique, which leaves no vertical scars like the lollipop or boat anchor shaped incisions.
Best Wishes,
Gary Horndeski, M.D.

Answer: Breast lift
You may have tuberous breasts, but they are not classic in that sense. Regardless of what you want to call it, you can correct it with a lift if you want to. A breast lift (mastopexy), will lift the breast, round out the shape, and make the nipple areolar complex smaller.
