I'm scared using brava bra on my tuberous breasts will only pull my breasts out more and make them longer instead of fuller (which is what I need). Do you think so? If yes, do you think getting nipple piercings that *force the breast tissue back into the breast would prevent brava from making them longer during usage? Dr. Roger Khouri in Florida speaks of using brava for this purpose (but only as pre-treatment for AFG). That's why I wonder if brava use alone on tuberous breasts would worsen them
Answer: Correcting tuberous breasts with Brava The tubular breasts are the result of internal scar tissue that contracts and distorts the breast and tissue around the base of the breast, creating the tubular shape. The BRAVA device alone cannot soften the constricted tissue and cannot correct a deformity. When the BRAVA device is used in conjunction with fat grafting and other techniques, the deformity is corrected without any incisions, sutures or scarring. The BRAVA device expands the breasts and loosens the constricted tissue to accept the fat grafts. The tight scar tissue is then broken up and loosened using the riggotomy technique. Our method of PALF is used to overcome skin shortages and the RAFT technique is used to create a natural breast fold.

Answer: Strange question: Using Brava Bra on tuberous breasts at home, need expert opinion? Using the BRAVA external expander alone will not change the shape or size of your breasts significantly. You are right, Dr. Khouri uses the BRAVA to expand the soft tissue, bring more vascularity into the breast tissue, so when it is fat grafted, the fat survival will be higher. Depends what your final goal is. Do you want to have fuller, rounder, naturally sagging breasts (go with the fat) or you prefer perkier, fuller breasts with the nipple/areolar complexes resized and lifted (go with a breast implant augmentation/vertical lift)? See a board certified plastic surgeon for an in person consultation/evaluation to discuss these options in detail. Good luck.

Answer: Tuberous Breasts Thank you for submitting a photo. You do have tuberous breasts. If you want to have fuller breasts with an improved shape you will likely need a mastopexy and placement of breast implants. Go to the ASPS website and find a board certified plastic surgeon in your area who can examine you and counsel you about your options.

Answer: Trust the surgeon with experience with this breast shape BRAVA is not going to give you the results that you are looking for. In fact, you are correct it will accentuate the shape that you are trying to fix. As discussed previously, your best option is breast augmentation. Nipple piercings are not going to help either. Your breast shape is something I see and treat every day of the week. It is not as difficult as you have been told. You need to find a surgeon with experience with this breast shape and let them treat you as they would any other patient with this anatomy.The first thing you should do is check the ASPS website for a list of doctors in your area. Then look at online reviews. Check the surgeon's website. Look at their results. Ask around to see if you have any personal references, these can be very helpful. Once you have screened the doctor, meet with them. If they are professional and sincere, educated and experienced, if they listen to your concerns and develop a plan which fits with your goals, you have found a good match.
