Do I Have Tuberous Breast Deformity and Do I Need a Breast Lift? (photo)
Hi I'm an 18yr old girl from Melbourne, Aus. I've always been very self-conscious of my breasts due to their sagginess, wide spacing and very large areola, and as a result always cover up at the beach. I've read many stories on this site and have breast lifts and tuberous breast deformity. I believe I may have both sagging and tuberous breasts. It's extremely embarrassing for me! I dont want implants, but would like to know how much a lift would cost and whether it's the procedure I require

Breast Lift Alone Should Give Tuberous Breast a Nice Result

You do not have a full blown Tuberous Breast but rather lack of medial fullness. This is good and should make Breast Lift Surgery much easier. The Areolae may be reduced and the same time.

Tuberous Breast Deformity and Breast Lift
Tuberous breast deformity can be improved with a breast lift. If you have a full breast lift, there is a way to shift tissue more medially to make the space appear smaller. However, the space will never become smaller.

Tuberous breasts and breast lift
Based on your pictures, I would agree that a breast lift would be in order for you. A breast lift would give you a perkier look to your breasts and would also decrease the diameter of your areola on each side. It will NOT decrease the space between your breasts. That is a function of the width of your chest bone. The trade-off is that you would have scars on your breasts from the breast lift procedure.

Tuberous breasts?
There are a number of features that define a tuberous breast:
•Wide and puffy areolae
•widely spaced breasts
•high breast fold
•constricted lower pole (deficient tissue in lower half of the breast
•minimal breast tissue
•high breast fold
•narrow base of the breast
Some of these features are present, including wide spacing and large areolas, but others are not. But whatever you call it, it is what it is.
Since there is a moderate amount of...
