I am super insecure about this and agraid to bring up to my doctor so I just need advice. Bras don’t fit me because I have no under boob and my areola just keeps getting larger. The right one sags lower so it feels really uncomfortable 24/7. I always have veins showing through them. About how much would a surgery cost and what would it include? How do patients cope with this? Height-5’3 Weight-137 lbs Age-19

Answer: Breast reduction You are a good candidate for a breast reduction. With this surgery you will get correction of your tuberous breast deformity, a breast lift, and areola reduction, all without the use of implants. I would recommend doing a consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon. Good luck!

Answer: Tuberous breast insecurity I am so sorry that your breasts are causing you pain and anxiety. The good news is that you have very nice volume as most patients with tuberous breast deformity require an implant to restore volume in the constricted breasts. The areolas have stretched to quite a large size and I would recommend a two stage procedure where initially a pursestring suture is placed to pre-stretch the skin and remove tension around the areola when the second stage is performed to reduce the size of the areola. The initial stage could be performed in the office under local anesthesia and then we would wait for at least 4 to 6 weeks before completing your surgery. The second stage would reduce the size of the areola, raise its position and reshape the breasts so that they are not quite so tuberous.
