Are my breasts tuberous?

Unfortunately, surgeons have created the term tuberous breasts, a fact which causes unnecessary concerns for women. Many women just have different sizes and shapes and in my opinion shouldn't be labeled. I recommend an in person consultation with a plastic surgeon to discuss your goals and be measured. After I measure and discuss goals with my patients, we then look at pictures of women (my patients) with similar measurements with different size and style breast implants, if interested. They then get to choose what looks right for them. They also get to see what they would look like when the breasts have fully dropped and fluffed and in clothes. You get to see actual results and the surgeon's experience and not a virtual idea of what can be achieved. Women tell me that this process is very helpful in determining what size and style breast implant is right for them. Dr. Ted Eisenberg, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and Author.

Though an in person evaluation is best, it doesn't appear that your breasts are tuberous. If you are wanting to alter the shape you do appear to be a good candidate for breast augmentation. This can provide a fuller overall look to the breasts. See a board certified plastic surgeon near you for a consultation.

No, you do not have tuberous, shaped like tubers, breasts, but are uneven and do have some sagging. If you are concerned, please visit with a board certified plastic surgeon.
