Do I have breast hypoplasia? (Photo)

Question

Hello, i suppose i have breast hypoplasia - comparing the picture of a hypoplastic breast. I ws examined by a general surgeon, he said i have small breast tissue. I dont feel breast tissue in the inner sides. I couldnt breastfeed due to very lowsupply. I remember my breasts were droopy in puberty and had large and swollen nipples. They are still large and i also feel there is herniation of breast tissue but currently i pump, they seem to be normal. Are they hypoplastic? Is tubular the same thing

You have hypoplasia with ptosis.  You will benefit from an implant plus or minus a lift.  The implant selection should be based on a combination of your desired size, soft tissue dynamics, breast base diameter and skin elasticity.  I recommend an in-office examination as well as a detailed discussion with a surgeon who you are comfortable with.   Finally, make sure your surgeon is a Double-Board Certified Plastic Surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS), a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgery (ASPS) and the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS).Best,Dr. DesaiBeverly Hills Institute for Aesthetic Plastic SurgeryHarvard Educated, Beverly Hills & Miami Beach Trained, Double-Board Certified Plastic Surgeon

Dear kllkz,based on your photo, you don't have tuberous breasts. However, it looks like your breasts are saggy. A formal evaluation would be required to give you more information regarding the recommended treatment.Daniel Barrett, MD, MHA, MS

Your breasts are small with some droopiness or ptosis as well. I suggest you obtain a face to face consultation with a plastic surgeon. They can examine you, then discuss treatment options to achieve you goals.

You appear to have small breasts with some sagging after having babies. However, I do not see evidence of a tuberous breast. I suggest you have a formal consultation with a plastic surgeon to obtain a recommendation.Best wishes, Dr. ALDO :)

Dennis Dass, MD · Answer

Breast hypoplasia is subjective description, meaning that the breast is small.  You have breast asymmetry and ptosis (droopiness).  You may have some degree of lower pole constriction if you have always been troubled by ptosis, but this would not be considered tuberous deformity.
