Do I have tuberous breasts? (Photos)

Question

I have always been insecure about the shape and development of my breast tissue. Growing up they never looked similar to my friends, and I rember one of my friends saying I looked like I had ‘cone tits’ at around 15. The following year I went on birth control for my endometriosis, the birth control seemed to help fill me out a bit better. However, I’m now 18 and got the iud shortly after my laparoscopy for endometriosis and my boobs are back to their old shape. I’m wondering if I have this condition or just puffy nipples and small boobs?

There does appear to be some construction of tissue around your nipples. If you’re concerned about their appearance, the tissue can be surgically released to give you a rounder shape.

It appears that you have a mild tuberous deformity based on the shape and areola protrusion. An augmentation with a small implant, reshaping of breasts and flattening of areolas would be appropriate way to correct your mild deformity. Good luck.
