Tuberous Breasts or Just Very Saggy? (photo)

Thank you for your question!   Given your photos, it does not appear that you have a tuberous breast/constricted breast deformity.  Without an examination, it will be difficult to tell you for certain, however, it appears that you have breast ptosis (sagging).  I believe that you would have a great result with a breast lift.  If you desired increased size and fullness, then consideration for an implant would be deserved.  Consult with a plastic surgeon well-versed in breast surgery and discuss your goals and expectations.  S/he will then be able to examine and discuss the various options and assist you in deciding which decision os the right one for you, given your desires.  I would expect a very pleasing result for you!  Hope that this helps!  Best wishes for a wonderful result!

Your breasts are sagging not tuberous and you have a lot of extra skin with stretchmarks. This usually happens after large weight gain and loss or after breast engorgement associated with pregnancy. If those do not apply in your case it could possibly be due to rapid early growth of the breasts during puberty. You see a similar skin condition in teen body builders whose muscles grow faster than the overlying skin can accommodate.

The nipples will need to be raised so much that you will likely need an inverted T or Wise pattern lift with or without an implant. Don't let anyone talk you into a lesser lift with a larger implant because that will only magnify your problem over time.

I hope you realize that this format of posting questions and receiving answers lacks the face to face direct communication required for you to make an informed decision regarding your surgery.

My response to your question/post does not represent formal medical advice or constitute a doctor patient relationship. You need to consult with i.e. personally see a board certified plastic surgeon in order to receive a formal evaluation and develop a doctor patient relationship.
 

This is a good question. It sounds as if you've already done some reading on this, and are questioning this because you had "weird" looking breasts even before your two children. While sagging often occurs after childbirth, especially if you have breast fed, many young women can naturally have sagging breasts even before having children, and even at very young ages. And, breasts come in all shapes and sizes, so you don't have to consider your breasts "weird".

I agree with the other surgeons here that your breasts do not look as if they are tuberous. Depending on whether you're looking for larger breasts or just wanting them to look less saggy, you have good choices. Consulting with a board certified plastic surgeon will help you take a look at these choices, which may include breast lift or breast lift with augmentation.
