Do I have tuberous breasts? (Photos)

Question

I've never been happy with the shape and size of my breasts but I'm unsure if they are tuberous. I'm 29 and roughly 95kg 165cm. The distance from my breast crease to areola is very short and always has been. I had a couple of consultations regarding breast augmentation several years ago and there was no mention that they were tuberous but I would appreciate some direct guidance.

There doesn’t appear to be any constriction of tissue around your nipples, therefore it is likely that your breasts aren’t tuberous.

Gary M. Horndeski, MD · Answer

Your breasts are not tuberous but simply low and lateral. Augmentation by itself would be unsuccessful. I recommend a circumareola lift with small implants placed retro-pectoral. Another alternative would be fat transfers instead of implants.
