Hi, I’m interested in getting a breast augmentation because I would like a change in my breast shape and size. I’ve noticed that my boobs spread to the side and is shaped almost like a cone. I’m not sure if this is a sign of tuberous breast or if I just have east west oriented breasts.?And can I ever get centered and round boobs with breast implants?

Answer: Your breasts are a good shape and not tuberous; good result should be expected; no change in position
I would highly recommend finding a surgeon that guides your recommended implant choice using your measurements. Sizing an implant is much like sizing a shoe. The dimensions of the breast are the most important thing to consider.
Bioabsorbable mesh is helpful in giving support to the tissues to help prevent complications such as bottoming out, but there are no guarantees. Smaller implants weigh less and may also help since less force will be placed on the breast tissue. I encourage you to visit with a few board...
I recommend a circumareola approach to remove excess skin medially and pull the nipple-areola complexes more centrally. The scar is completely around the areolas. If additional volume is desired then liposuction and fat transfers may be an option.
