Tubular Breasts?

Thank you for your question. From the photos, it looks like you have breast ptosis and as you lose weight, you will see that the breasts will change in shape and size.

Once you have lost the weight, make sure that you visit with a well experienced plastic surgeon to discuss breast lifting as well as possible breast implants. Best wishes. see video
