For as long as I can remember, I have always had sagging, asymmetric breasts. They have always made me very self-conscious. What’s going on with them and what would be the best method to correct their appearance?
Answer: Hypoplastic breasts You have a variant of hypoplastic breast development. Note that the lower pole of your breast is not fully developed, and your nipple/anreolar appear to be pointing downward. If you only wish to give your nipple/areolar complex a more lifted youthful look, you could undergo only a breast lift. If you wish to try to fill out your breast envelope more, add additional volume and help fill out the lower pole of your breast, a breast augmentation can be performed at the same time as your breast lift. You should have a detailed consultation with your plastic surgeon to discuss your options. Best wishes.

Answer: Breast Lift & Augmentation with Implants Thank you for your question. You appear to have tubular breasts with a narrow base, elongated shape, asymmetry, and often underdeveloped lower breast tissue. This can be corrected by a breast lift and augmentation with implants below the muscles to increase volume and create a rounder, fuller breast shape. A breast lift addresses sagging and improves overall breast symmetry and position by removing excess skin. Your surgeon will guide you on the best size and shape to match your goals and anatomy.

Answer: Tuberous breasts Dear Phenomenal385675, tuberous breasts are not simply small or underdeveloped breasts. The appearance of the breast can range from mild to severe, and typical traits include: enlarged, puffy areola, rather wide spacing between the breasts, very little breast tissue, sagging, higher than normal inferior breast fold, and narrow base at the chest wall.The type of surgery best for you will depend on the severity of your condition.My preferred technique for tuberous breast correction involves a multistep procedure where the breast tissue is released in a radial pattern to prevent herniation into the areola and placement of a custom implant size is in the breast to allow appropriate expansion of the breast in the restricted dimensions. This can often be done in a single procedure but sometimes may require two surgeries.That said, it is best that you visit a board-certified plastic surgeon for an in person examination. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.
