Hi, I just turned 18 and I'm really insecure about my breasts. I'm a 34B and my right breast is a lot bigger than my left. I have fatty tissue below my breast fold, which makes me wonder if that's where I'll fill out. My areolas are quite soft and puffy unless I get cold and they get erect. My friends keep telling me everyone goes through a stage as teens where their nipples are puffy, and my mom said I'm a late bloomer, but I still get worried. Will they stay this way forever??

Answer: Normal #breastasymmetry during development Hi k1225,Your concerns about breast asymmetry are normal and common. Please know that in all patients there are differences in breast volume (from fat & breast tissue), shape & skin laxity. Many women see shifts in the early 20's so your breasts will continue to change with age and with monthly fluctuating hormonal levels. There are surgical ways to improve symmetry via fat grafting and/or implants. When you are ready, have a consult with an ABPS certified plastic surgeon for a full history, examination w/measurements, etc. Best wishes, Dr. Doolabh

Answer: Breast Asymmetry Correction Based on your pictures, it does not appear that you have tuberous breasts. Your breasts are smaller with some asymmetry, but it doesn’t look like you have a true tuberous component. However, that being said, the surgical approach, should you be done developing and this is how they stay, is the same. A dual plane breast augmentation with different size/ style implants on each side can provide better shape, size, and correct symmetry issues. The best thing to do is to have a few consultations (virtual right now) with board certified plastic surgeons and see what is recommended. Please see the below link for examples. I hope this helps.
