Can you lower the inframamory fold or release the constricted breast without using an implant to hold it in place? I want to release the constriction of my fold but interred in fat transfer for slight lower pole fullness rather than an implant.

Answer: Can you release the constricted breast without implants? Hello @evaligne171, thank you for your question. In order to improve the overall shape of your breast, you may consider to reaccomodate the mammary tissue, breast projection and nipple, with an inverted J scar for minimal scarring to enhance shape and breast projection. An accurate surgical plan requires a consultation. The best course of action is to consult one or several board certified plastic surgeon for more information and options tailored specifically to your needs. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez, MD FACS.

Answer: Tuberous breasts Dear evaligne171, tuberous breasts are not simply small or underdeveloped breasts. The appearance of the breast can range from mild to severe, and typical traits include: enlarged, puffy areola, rather wide spacing between the breasts, very little breast tissue, sagging, higher than normal inferior breast fold, and narrow base at the chest wall.The type of surgery best for you will depend on the severity of your condition.My preferred technique for tuberous breast correction involves a multistep procedure where the breast tissue is released in a radial pattern to prevent herniation into the areola and placement of a custom implant size is in the breast to allow appropriate expansion of the breast in the restricted dimensions. This can often be done in a single procedure but sometimes may require two surgeries.That said, it is best that you visit a board-certified plastic surgeon for an in person examination. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.
