Im 20 years old, and for as long as I can remember my breasts have always been "saggy". I've been doing some research and think I may have a mild case of tubular breasts? My breasts started developing around 11 years old, but I never got round, perky breasts like the rest of my friends. Is the only way to go about fixing this surgery? I'm satisfied with the size, I just wish they were more high up and rounder. I'm quite worried about scars.
Answer: Why aren't my breasts perky? Not all breasts are created equal. Mother nature makes people of all different shapes and sizes. Although you are young it just happens that you have an appearence of sagging breasts (ptosis). It will change over time, not likely to become "perky" on their own however. Surgery can improve this with the trade-off of scars. Even with surgery your breasts may develop recurrent ptosis. I would recomend you start with a face to face consult with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon that specializes in breast surgery. After an exam they should be able to educate you to your choices. Good luck.

Answer: Why aren't my breasts perky? Hi.. thank you for the question and photos... you do not have to worry about scares.. the would be subtle... the treatment for the Breast Ptosis is a Breast lift... i suggest with implants for the upper pole fullness. This is a normal condition developed with the size of the breast tissue.

Answer: Everyone is different. Some women have saggy breasts or ptosis. To make ones breasts more perky, a breast lift might be in order with or without a small implant. Augmentaton with a breast lift can be a very powerful procedure with long lasting results. As an expert in breast cosmetic surgery, I have done thousands of lifts and do them every week. Women can go back to work in 48 hours most often and take only ibuprofen (we use numbing medicine and also can use exparel.)

Answer: Tuberous Breasts? From your pictures, it is hard to say whether you have tuberous breasts or not since that is a very specific diagnosis. However, what you do have are breasts that are not to your liking. To achieve a better shape and higher nipple position, this would require a circumareolar ( donut )lift at a minimum, as well as an impalnt to provide the shape. You could simply do a lift, and perhaps being more aggressive with a lift ( circumvertical or lollipop) would help improve the shape as well. However, to get a rounded look generally requires an implant long term. I would go for a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon and see what they ahve to say. I hope this helps.

Answer: Why aren't my breasts perky? Dear SaggBreasts come in all shapes and sizes. There is no need to change the shape and size of your breast if you are comfortable with what you have. If you wanted a different shape or size, that can be accomplished with surgery. You can have a lift alone, or have a lift with the addition of implants to also enlarge your breasts. Look for expereinced and well trained surgeons, see more than one consult. look for certification by the American Board of Plastic Surgery.
