Hi, I have tubular breasts and like many other women, I am extremely self conscious. I want to correct them as fast as possible, but I am losing weight and still have about 50 more lbs that I'd like to lose. So my question is, if I were to correct it now, what type of effect would losing weight produce to my breasts. So should I wait til I'm my goal weight or would weight not impact the appearance if u did it now?

Answer: Weight loss prior to breast augmentation would be ideal Hello. This is actually a quite common question. My response typically goes like this:If you are actively losing weight and have a significant amount to go, such as the 50 pounds you mention, then the best long term result will be possible of the weight is lost before the surgery. If however the weight loss has been something you have been sort of working on for years and really hasn't been happening than its not likely to suddenly occur in the next several months and there is really no point in waiting any longer if the surgery is something you really want. Hope this helps.Best of luck to you!G. Robert Meger MD

Answer: Should I wait til after losing weight to correct tubular breasts? Yes, you should wait until you are at a stable weight. Losing 50 additional pounds could have a dramatic change in any type of body contouring procedure. Keep in mind that most women's breasts are mostly made up of fat, so if you are planning on additional weight loss, you will lose some volume from your breasts affecting shape and skin laxity. 50 lbs is a significant weight loss, it would be interesting to see how much lax skin you will have at the end. You may need a breast lift. I welcome you to look at my gallery to view women who have undergone The Horndeski Method/Bellesoma Method breast that does not require breast implants to reshape and provide upper pole fullness to breasts. I hope this helps and good wishes on your weight loss endeavor! Kind regards,
