How do you find a doctor in a Canada who specializes in Tuberous Breast Correction?

Question

This is eating me. This condition ruins my self-esteem and makes it feel like I could never be intimate with anyone. I am 19. I just want this fixed. I want this fixed desperately. I just want a normal life and to not feel like a martian. It's embarrassing and I really have nobody to turn to talk to about it. I want to stop feeling like a martian living with this weird deformity. I want to be able to wear cute clothing, bras, and swimsuits without worrying about how my breasts will fit or look.

You might want to see Dr. Frank Lister or Dr. Mitchell Brown, both excellent Canadian surgeons.  They speak at conferences and publish extensively on breast surgery.  No surgeon has a practice made up solely of tuberous breasts, the condition is not prevalent enough.

Far more important than the technique is the skill and experience of your plastic surgeon. Choose your surgeon rather than the technique and let them explain why one technique may be better than another.  See the below link on some suggestions on finding the most qualified Plastic Surgeon for a BBL Always insist on a board certified plastic surgeon.

The idea of specialisation is appealing- who wouldn't want a surgeon who spends all day operating on Tuberous breast deformity?  In reality, I think you would do well with a surgeon who is experienced in operating on this problem.  If they can show you 5 or 10 examples of successful results from their work, you are probably in good hands.  Several plastic surgeons in Toronto would have this expertise.

Many can be performed in a single stage depending on the degree of the tuberous breast.
