Hi.. thank you for the question and photos... your breast have developed normally, you do not have to be depressed, you have some degree of inverted nipples, these could be corrected with surgery.

Vincent N. Zubowicz, MD · Answer

I don't see any significant problem with your breasts. There some in version of the nipple but this is modest. If you want to be larger you can discuss this with the plastic surgeon. I'm not sure I would proceed with elective cosmetic surgery until your depression is under control.

Nelson Castillo, MD · Answer

Thank you for your question and photographs and I am sorry to hear about your depression and anxiety, as they are difficult battles to fight.  As far as your breasts, they fall well within the normal range of development, and though your one nipple may have some inversion, it is quite mild.  For now, I would recommend you continue to work on your depression and anxiety, and once controlled, see a plastic surgeon for an in-person examination if you have further questions about your breasts.

Steven Wallach, MD · Answer

You have small breasts with one moldy inverted nipple. Implants can add volume and might even improve the inversion of the one nipple.
