Finally pursuing augmentation, something I've always dreamed of and I want to make sure I have all the information I can to make the best choice to have the best result. I am not sure if my breasts are just normal small or tuberous. I've gone through one pregnancy where my breasts did not change (even though stretch marks developed).

Answer: Choosing the right size and profile breast implants for you Unfortunately, surgeons have created the term tuberous breasts, a fact which causes unnecessary concerns for women. Many women just have different sizes and shapes and in my opinion shouldn't be labeled. I recommend an in person consultation with a plastic surgeon to discuss your goals and be measured. After I measure and discuss goals with my patients, we then look at pictures of women (my patients) with similar measurements. They also get to see what they would look like when the breasts have fully dropped and fluffed and in clothes. You get to see actual results and the surgeon's experience and not a virtual idea of what can be achieved. Women tell me that this process is very helpful in determining what is right for them.

Answer: Tuberous breasts? Yes you do. And it is more pronounced on your let but you would benefit from a mastopexy augmentation-- a breast lift with implants--that will help improve your shape, give you more cleavage, more upper pole fullness of the breast, and reduce the size of your areolae. Watch this video below for a better explanation.

Answer: Narrow, tuberous breasts Both of your breasts are narrow and tuberous like, one more than the other. The way to change the existing shape is with surgery to expand narrow breast shape. Due to discrepancy in size, I would consider reduction of the larger breast to avoid long term problems with asymmetry and ptosis. Once shape of both breasts is changed, symmetry of areaola size and position (lift) achieved, breasts should be augmented with implants. In person consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon whith experience in tuberous breast treatment, is recommended.
