Do I have tubular breasts or just sagging breasts? And what it the best way to fix them? (Photo)

Thank you very much for sharing your concerns with us.After having analyzed all the information and photos provided to us, i can identify that you have a sagging and mild tubular Breast with also assymetry.I recommend you perform a Tubular Breasts Correction with Breast Augmentation using silicon implants, at the same surgical time.There is a surgical technique for Tuberous Breasts correction, by which it is arranged the tuberous areolar ring from inside, without requiring areolar reduction. In this technique we also need silicon implants, to get a better Breast volume and projection.Therefore it is very important that the plastic surgeon who will perform the surgery, has the skills and vast experience in this type of procedure.Respectfully,Dr. Emmanuel Mallol Cotes.-

I appreciate
your question.

From your photos, yes it appears you do have tubular breasts.

Constricted
or tubular breasts tend to be too narrow with a breast crease that is too high.
Tight ring-like bands of tissue around the areolae and nipples may create the
appearance of protruding or puffy areolae. A higher than normal breast crease
may make your nipples appear to be too low or down pointing. Constricted breast
features can be very mild or severe. In fact, mild variations are relatively
common. To summarize, the features can include:-Inframammary fold (breast crease) too
high-Inframammary fold misshapen-Breasts too narrow (disproportionately
narrow base width)-Insufficient breast skin-Constricted or tubular shape, resulting
from tight bands of tissue within breasts-Protruding or bulging appearance of
areolae (pigmented area around nipples)

Improvement
is possible and generally includes a breast augmentation, sometimes combined
with a lift (mastopexy). The lift is usually limited to an incision around the
areolae. During the procedure, I release the tight, constricting bands from the
inside, allowing the skin to expand properly. I also lower the inframammary
fold to a more ideal position and improve it’s shape. Breast implants help
create the right amount of volume and improve breast contours, resulting in a
more rounded or tear drop shape.



The best way
to assess and give true advice would be an in-person exam.

Please see a
board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative breast surgery.



best of luck!

Your photos demonstrate mild tuberous breasts with asymmetry. Your options included bilateral Mastopexy with correction of asymmetry and nipple areolar complex reduction with or without implants. Be certain to choose a board certified plastic surgeon with vast experience with tuberous breast surgery, as this type of surgery can be complicated. Good Luck!

Hi.. thank you for the question and photos... you do not have tuberous breast, you have wide Nipple areola complex and breast asymmetry. This could be treated with a lift (smaller one) and a reduction of the other one with the areola treatment. 

Based on your pictures, you appear to have characteristics of both problems.  Tubular breasts are characterized by a constricted, narrow base to the breast as well as enlarged areolae.  The good news is that you are an excellent candidate for a breast lift procedure which should solve these problems as well as give you a perkier shape to your breasts.  I would suggest that you schedule a consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon who can examine you in person and review your options with you.

Yes you have tubular breasts.  The best approach would be a breast lift around the areola and a small implant to improve the volume asymmetry. 

Thank you for your question about breast augmentation.You have breast ptosis and large areola, but not classic tuberous breasts.  At your young age, you may choose to wait after children or choose to undergo breast lift surgery.  I do not think that breast augmentation is necessary at this time.

To be sure, see two or more experienced,
board-certified Plastic Surgeons in your area for a complete evaluation to make
sure you are a good candidate and that it is safe for you to have breast lift or related procedure(s).

I hope this helps.

Hello,Thank you for the question and photos. You do appear to have sagging or ptosis, enlarged areolas and a significant asymmetry. Much of this could be improved with a breast lift/areola reduction. If you have minor constriction this could be addressed and breast implants to help fill out the shape of your breasts would also be an option. There are many angles and options so I certainly recommend booking an in-person consultation with a board certified Plastic Surgeon. They will need to examine, measure and plan with you to get you to your goal.All the best

You have asymmetric, ptotic breasts with large areolas consistent with a type of tuberous breasts. You should arrange a consult with a board certified plastic surgeon in your area to discuss treatment options. These would include the insertion of breast implants, release of breast tissue in the lower aspect of your breasts, areolar reduction and breast lift.

Looking at your photos, I can empathize with your frustration. You have a definite asymmetry. My recommendation would be for you to make an appointment with a board certified plastic surgeon for a breast lift consultation. In my opinion, based on your pictures, you would be an excellent candidate for a breast lift. It would allow the surgeon to make both your breasts the same size while also lifting them to a higher spot on your chest, making them perkier.
