I have tubular breasts and i want to get them fixed. is there any possibility to fix this without a implant.
Answer: Tubular Breasts and Augmentation Tubular breasts come in all shapes and significant variations in breast contour occur in women with this condition. Tubular breasts occur because of constriction of the skin at the base of the breast. This often results in herniation of the breast tissue through the areola which creates a unique breast shape. A variety of approaches may be used to correct this problem. Treatment should be individualized, based on the specifics of the anatomic deformity and aesthetic goals of the patient. When patients have mild tubular breast deformities, correction can often occur without an implant. Severe cases of this condition usually require treatment with an implant because of the magnitude of the deformity. If you’re concerned about the tubular breast deformity, it’s important to consult a board certified plastic surgeon. This surgeon will develop a treatment plan that not only considers your unique anatomy, but your aesthetic goals as well.

Answer: With Tuberous Breasts, Generally Can Only Fix with a Modified Breast Augmentation Thank you for your question. It is difficult to tell without a photo, but generally no, it is not possible to fix tuberous breasts without implants.The signs of tuberous breasts are: constricted breast base, high-riding inframammary fold, and herniation of the breast grandular tissue into the areolar ring. If you do indeed have tuberous breasts and you desire somewhat larger, fuller breasts, you would need to undergo a modified breast augmentation procedure. In addition to placing a breast implant, a plastic surgeon would need to perform radial scoring of the breast grandular tissue from the inside and to lower the inframammary fold.

Answer: Tubular breasts Tubular breastsThis breast condition is a developmental problem of the breast. It may be characterized by a variety of appearances generally seen at the time of puberty. There may be breast underdevelopment of the breast with little or no breast tissue. There may be deficiency of breast skin. The breast may appear narrow, tubular, long, conical or droopy. These contours have resulted in the use of unattractive names such as #TubularBreasts, or #SnoopyBreasts. Frequently, the areola (nipple) is often herniated forward creating a #PuffyNipple,

Answer: Tubular Breast Correction Yes, it is possible to fix tubular breasts without getting implants. The constricted tissue will be released and your areolae reduced if necessary. However, please note that the size of your breasts will remain the same or be smaller.

Answer: Fix tubular breasts without implants? Thank you for your question! The standard procedure would be placement of an implant (or tissue expander, depending on the lower pole of your breast) as well as a circumareolar breast lift. These modalities would correct the issues with tuberous breast: constricted breast at the inferior pole, via breast prosthetic; scoring of the tissue to release the bands; lowering the inframammary fold; correcting the herniation of breast tissue into the areolae; and decreasing the overall size of the areolae. These are the hallmarks of tuberous breasts. You could likely get great results with fat grafting or an implant and likely breast lift.Consult with a plastic surgeon well-versed in breast surgery and discuss your goals and expectations. S/he will then be able to examine and discuss the various options and assist you in deciding which decision os the right one for you, given your desires. I would expect a very pleasing result for you! Hope that this helps! Best wishes for a wonderful result!
