I suspect tuberous breasts. Will a lift help the shape?

November 8, 2015
Asked By:kmo83 in Victoria, BC

Hello, I have an appointment with a board certified plastic surgeon, but it isn't for another 8 months. I'm actually 7 months pregnant now but I would like to get a breast augmentation in about a years time. I had a lot of difficulty breastfeeding my first child two years ago. Although I went to two lactation consultants, no one ever told me I might have tuberous breasts, but I think that might be the problem! Would you also recommend looking into getting a lift done when I get the procedure?
