Tuberous breasts or not? Do I need a lift? (Photos)

January 30, 2025

35, 2 children. I've had two consults with differing suggestions. Doctor #1 said the breasts are tuberous and suggested a mastopexy with fat grafting or implants. Doctor #2 disagreed that breasts were tuberous, specifically saying they were not. They recommended staging out with implant first and following up with a lift if I felt I needed one, so two surgeries, to promote healing in between. Are they tuberous? Do I NEED a lift?
