I have always felt that my breast didn’t look quite right as soon as they started growing. In the beginning the areolas were puffy and big. Now that they are fully grown (80E/F) they look like long dog ears. I get rashes and fungus infection underneath. And I never show them. Are they tubular or is something else that made them look like this?

Answer: Tuberous breasts Dear JJULIAJJ97, tuberous breasts are not simply small or underdeveloped breasts. The appearance of the breast can range from mild to severe, and typical traits include: enlarged, puffy areola, rather wide spacing between the breasts, very little breast tissue, sagging, higher than normal inferior breast fold, and narrow base at the chest wall.The type of surgery best for you will depend on the severity of your condition.My preferred technique for tuberous breast correction involves a multistep procedure where the breast tissue is released in a radial pattern to prevent herniation into the areola and placement of a custom implant size is in the breast to allow appropriate expansion of the breast in the restricted dimensions. This can often be done in a single procedure but sometimes may require two surgeries.That said, it is best that you visit a board-certified plastic surgeon for an in person examination. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

Answer: Pendulous breasts You have large and pendulous (droopy) asymmetric breasts. You would benefit from a lift and possibly a reduction depending on your size desire. In the USA, insurance would only be involved if you were going quite a bit smaller.
