I have slightly tuberous breasts(at least I think theyd be considered that...)but I don’t think it’s too severe of a case.I wear34A and my right breast is a bit more abnormal then the left.Im not too interested in implants but from what Ive looked into the full procedure to fix tubular breasts involves expanding the tissue under the breasts.Butwhen I’m cold and my areolas contract,do like how my breasts look.Is it possible to only have an areola reduction and not the full procedure?
