Do I Have Tuberous Breast? If Yes, Do You Think Surgery Could Work for Me? (photo)
Hi, When I was 14, I saw a doctor to ask him why my breast looked so different and he laughed at me... so I never asked anybody again... until now. When it's cold my breast looks pretty normal except if I lean...in this case they look like tubes.... But when it's hot the areola looks very puffy (it can be 3cm and the nipple disappears). I just would like to have a normal breast and I'm not really convinced by having implants... but would it work without any implants? Thanks for your time.

Do I Have Tuberous Breasts?

Tuberous Breast
You do not have tuberous breast. It sounds like your areolas change dramatically with stimulation or temperature changes. You could just have an areolar reduction to decrease the diameter, or you could have an implant with or without areolar reduction depending on your goals.

Tuberous breasts
First , I am sorry that you had such a bad experience with an insensitive Dr. You do not have tuberous breast deformity but your breasts can be improved with surgery.

You can have more normal looking breasts.
Without implants you would need to have a breast lift that would reposition the breast...

Tuberous or Normal Breasts?
From your photos, it does appear that you have breast asymmetry, but not tuberous breasts. You should have improvement with an augmentation in addition to an areolar reduction. This can help improve the problems you have when the nipples are not erect. Tightening of the tissues will help improve the balance of your breasts and areolae in the same procedure.
Best of luck,

The posted photos show no tuberous deformity. Therefore a straight augmentation will work for you. Seek in person evaluation from boarded PS in your area.

Breast augmentation could work for you
The short answer is no, you do not have a tuberous breast. Your breast is small but otherwise very normal. You can have a very nice breast augmentation if you choose, and only you can decide.
