What can I do to correct my breasts? (Photo)

I appreciate your question.You do have tuberous breasts which accounts for the many other things you describe. It is fixable and an implant will assist with this.We need to lower the fold and release the internal constrictions throughout he areola.A lift will be needed to decrease the size of the areolaThe best way to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam.Please see a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative breast surgery.best of luck!Dr Schwartz

Based on your photos, you have tuberous breasts - which is a description for a spectrum of breast anatomy characterized by an elevated infra-mammary fold, a narrow breast foot print and some degree of areolar dilation. Corrective cosmetic surgery usually combines breast augmentation with breast lift procedures to reshape the breast.

You have two main issues-breast sagging with stretched out skin and enlarged areolae, and asymmetry both in the size of your breasts and their shape. All of the other terms you mentioned are related to these two issues. Surgery can certainly correct most of these issues, but absolute symmetry may not be achievable. Your breasts will definitely be much prettier and much more even, just not exactly even (most women do not have exactly even breast anyway).You will need implants to add volume and a breast lift to elevate the breast, decrease the areolae, and make them more symmetrical. Some surgeons opt to do this in two surgeries, while others like me, do both at the same operation. Some patients, regardless of which approach, will require additional correction once the breast have settled and the shape stabilized.See a board-certified plastic surgeon in your area.

Hello,Thank you for your question and photos. First of all, many asymmetries, ptosis and different areola anatomy are common. The degree to which this bothers you and you would like to correct it is the question. Your situation is complex- you do appear to have asymmetry, tuberous constriction, ptosis, etc. Breast lift with areola reduction, release of constriction and placement of breast implants could much improve the look of your breasts. In fact, silicone cohesive gel breast implants would be an important component of reshaping your breasts as they will help fill out and hold the breast's reshaped form after the lift. I recommend that you book a consultation with a board certified Plastic Surgeon who is very experienced in this type of work and can show you before and after photos related to your surgery.All the best!

Thank you for the post and for the photos.  I can appreciate that the anatomy of your breasts does present some challenges but this by no way precludes you from surgery.  In point of fact, I think a breast lift with areaolar reduction and implant could give you a dramatic and pleasing result.  Make sure you seek out an experienced board certified plastic surgeon.  Good luck!
