Will my breasts continue to grow and fill out (I am 16)?

pristinedream
I have been tracking my breast size, and they have not grown since I was 12. I hit puberty early, so will that have an effect on their growth? It's not the size that matters to me, but the shape. I believe I have a mild case of tuberous breasts, and this is something I have very low self-esteem about. I knew even when I was younger that my breasts were different from my mother and my sister's. I do not wish to resort to breast augmentation when I am older because of the risks and cost. Thanks.
