Hi, I’m interested in getting a breast augmentation because I would like a change in my breast shape and size. I’ve noticed that my boobs spread to the side and is shaped almost like a cone. I’m not sure if this is a sign of tuberous breast or if I just have east west oriented breasts.?And can I ever get centered and round boobs with breast implants?
Answer: Tuberous breast deformity Thanks for your question! It does not appear as though you have tuberous breast deformity. I do think you would be a good candidate for a breast augmentation. Please seek out a board-certified plastic surgeon in your area. Good luck!

Answer: Tuberous breasts? From the submitted photos you do not have tuberous breasts. Your nipples are somewhat wideset which will not be corrected with breast augmentation alone. If you would like to change the nipple position it would need to be addressed separately. See a board certified plastic surgeon near you to learn more.

Answer: Implants can’t centered your nipples Upon reviewing your photos, I can confirm that you do not have a tuberous breast deformity. Unfortunately, it is not possible to change the position of your areolas using implants alone. While we can reposition the nipples with a breast lift surgery, you currently do not need such a procedure. You may, however, be a good candidate for breast augmentation. My suggestion is to try to make peace with the current position of your nipples. If you require a breast lift in the future, we can then reposition the nipples accordingly.

Answer: Not tuberous Your breasts are not tuberous, they are simply widely separated. I recommend a circumareola approach to remove more skin medially to pull in the nipple-areola complexes more centrally. Best Wishes, Gary Horndeski, M.D.

Answer: Your breasts are a good shape and not tuberous; good result should be expected; no change in position 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. 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.
