Hello. I am 18 years old and I have no mother to ask about my breasts. I saw her pictures though and she had small breasts but my sister has rather large ones. My breasts are very small and I don't like it not only are they small but they are not full and they are very droopy and pointy. I honestly do not even know what kind of breasts I have. Will they ever grow? Or become fuller? Or will I stay like this? I am so sorry for so many questions in one.
Answer: Small , pojnty and lack of fullness to breasts.Am I normal? HI Miss, It is a little unusual to have droopy breasts at age 18, but I have had several young patients who are like this, so you are not abnormal. You may have a bit of a tuberous component, but this can certainly be helped if you see a board certified plastic Surgeon who is experienced in treating these type of breasts. An important thing to remember is that you are not really deformed at all, so you have plenty of time to visit with surgeons and make a calm decision about the direction you want to take. Be sure to understand all the risks and complications of any surgical procedure.Best Wishes,Dr. Christine Rodgers

Answer: Candidate for a BA? Far more important than the technique is the skill and experience of your plastic surgeon. Choose your surgeon rather than the technique and let them explain why one technique may be better than another. See the below link on some suggestions on finding the most qualified Plastic Surgeon for a Breast Augmentation Always insist on a board certified plastic surgeon.

Answer: There is no normal… There is just you !!! Thank you for your question and "normal" it's so hard to define and especially at 18 years old!! And while it may be true that you have a little bit of droop, breasts of all ages come in all shapes and sizes. What is most important is how you feel about it. There are a lot of important things to think about at 18 years old and it is very normal for many women to address their breast shape years down the road when many of these other issues have kind of settled out! Yet for other women it can be a constant concern. So I would think about how much weight you give to this and, if you feel like you should address it now, seek out a well-qualified board-certified plastic surgeon to help you!!!! Good luck

Answer: Are my breasts normal? From the photos you provided, it is really hard to tell if you have tuberous breasts as the other surgeon suggested. But you do have a moderate degree of droop and could benefit from additional volume. Best to consult with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon experienced in Cosmetic Breast Surgery and one who has years of experience. Tuberous breast surgery can be far more challenging than a straightforward breast augmentation and requires skill, expertise, and experience with this type of case.I hope that helps and wish you the very best!-Gregory A Buford MD FACSBoard Certified Plastic Surgeon and Author
