I am obese. In the last year I gained more pounds and my breast change more. I believe they got bigger. However the nipple position is concerning me. My breasts hang down with the left nipple pointing down and a bit to the right. My right breast is the same however the skin and what makes up the breast seems to be more on the right side and the nipple is against my stomach. Its like the skin underneath didn't grow with the breast. Should I be worried something is wrong?

Answer: I have a concern about my breast shape and nipple position. The right nipple not facing forward. Is it normal? Hi. I'm afarid that without the benefit of photos ,it's impossible to give you an accurate assessment as to your particular situation. Just know that breast asymmetry is the norm rather than the exception. Relax. Good luck Dr. PG

Answer: This sounds like you have sagging Hello and thanks for your question. It sounds like you're describing saggy breasts. When the breast tissue rests on your tummy, the nipples point downwards, and the breasts look long and stretchy then you have sagging. I cannot confirm this because I cannot examine you. If sagging can be confirmed,then you might need a breast lift, but this can only be confirmed on examination. You appear to be a grade 2 or 3 level of sagging of your breast tissue. In my office, patients with similar findings will be recommended a vertical or anchor breast lift and implants combination if they want the sagging to be reduced, lift the nipples to a more ideal location, and have better long term results. With breast implants you can choose a bigger breast size and therefore will be much fuller than your current size. However, there's no way to recommend a particular size or even whether you should perform the operation without the ability to examine your breasts. Best, Dr. ALDO.
