I had breast surgery (augmentation with 175cc implants, periareolar incision and breast lift) on the 2nd of February because of tuberous breast. Now after 4 months I'm not happy with the result: there is a visible line where my old breast ended and they are not as smooth and round as I expected. I know that tuberous breast may never look like a normal breast, but I ask if I have to wait for complete healing or if it won't go away and so if I need surgery again.

Answer: Tuberous revision Yes, this will persist as it represents the border between your natural breast tissue and where it is only skin(?muscle) over the implant. Traditionally, an open surgical procedure was usually done. What we have found more recently is that well done fat transfer can provide an EXCELLENT improvement of this without the need to reenter the breast. You can see examples on-line of fat grafting for tuberous breast deformity. Make sure the surgeon you choose is experienced at this. Of yes.....and I would suggest waiting at least 6-8 months for your tissues to settle before considering this.

Answer: #DoubleBubble After #BreastAugmentation From your photo, it appears that you have a double bubble deformity and you need release of the lower aspect of your breast as well as reinforcing of the fold. You will likely always have some form of this secondary to you anatomy, but it is likely you can improve the overall shape and appearance. You should see a board certified plastic surgeon in your area to get a formal opinion through and in-person consultation.Best of luck!
