I started puberty 5-6 years ago. My breasts have filled out and are big but it seems as if my breast tissue migrates to my nipples. My boobs look a lot more shapely when they are cold/aroused. Would the breast pumps work? Would progesterone cream/hormones help? Would taping my nipples during the days/nights help? Since bras weaken breast muscle, what exercises wouldn't increase puffiness? Im clueless if I have PCOS because I am not overweight. Would pregnancy worsen my condition or help? Help
Answer: Breast shape Thank you for your question. Based on your photos, you do not have tubular breasts. If you feel that your areola's are fuller than you'd like, you can speak to a board certified plastic surgeon about a possible areola reduction.

Answer: Tubular breasts? It does not appear that you have tubular breasts, just puffier areola which is not uncommon. There's not much to do about it. I wouldn't recommend areolar reduction, because I don't think it would be worth the scar. Sometimes this flattens out with breast augmentation, if you also wanted to be bigger.

Answer: Not a tubular shape thanks for your question and the photos. Although you don't have a tuberous shape, you do have a wide and "puffy" areola. This is a natural variant and doesn't suggest anything is wrong with your breast. While there isn't a topical medication or external device to change it, Areolar reduction can be done with surgery, but it will result in scars around the areola at a minimum. Consulting with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon might help you with your options. Best of Luck!

Answer: Please take it easy! Sandy, You do not have tubular breasts. Overall your breasts are quite attractive, with a pretty shape and reasonable size. Your nipples are somewhat puffy, which may be caused by herniation of breast tissue into the nipples, but not severe. Modest correction possible with surgery only. Save your money trying products you may see on line. Be sure to consult with a board certified plastic surgeon to help guide you, and hopefully council you to do nothing at all!

Answer: Breast evaluation Hello and thank you for your question. Your breasts do not appear tuberous. Surgical breast augmentation is the most reliable way to change the shape and size of your breasts. You are a great candidate for a breast augmentation. The size, profile, and shape of the implant is based on your desired breast size/shape, your chest wall measurements, and soft tissue quality. This decision should be based on a detailed discussion with equal input from both you and your surgeon. This entire surgery can be performed with a small incision technique. Make sure you specifically look at before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon and evaluate their results. The most important aspect is to find a surgeon you are comfortable with. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate you in person. Best wishes and good luck. Richard G. Reish, M.D. FACS Harvard-trained plastic surgeon
