Tuberous Breast Correction

Introduction

Introduction to Tuberous Breast Correction

Many women suffer from a condition known as tuberous breasts, in which one or both of the breasts typically become deformed or abnormally shaped. Most commonly, tuberous breasts have a narrow, cylindrical appearance with unusually high inframammary creases and puffy areolas. Although this condition is typically benign, it often causes embarrassment and self-consciousness for the women who develop it. If you have symptoms of tuberous breasts, tuberous breast correction in Scottsdale and the greater Phoenix area by Dr. Craft may be the solution you’re looking for.

What Are Tuberous Breasts?

Tuberous breasts, which are also referred to as tubular breasts, are the result of a congenital condition that most commonly develops during puberty. The symptoms of the condition can vary, but in most cases, the breasts develop abnormally small and shaped. Some of the most common characteristics of tuberous breasts include:

  • Breasts spaced widely apart
  • Small breasts
  • Large, puffy areolas
  • Narrow, cylindrical breasts
  • Breasts sitting unusually high on the chest
  • Unusually high breast creases (inframammary folds)
  • Asymmetrical breasts
  • Downward-facing nipples
  • Drooping breast skin

 

What is Tuberous Breast Correction?

Tuberous breast correction is a cosmetic surgical procedure used to improve the appearance of tuberous breasts. The treatment is customized to meet the unique needs of each patient; most commonly, it is performed using either silicone or saline breast implants. These implants are inserted into the affected breasts to create a rounder, more youthful shape and enhance the size of the breasts.

Tuberous breast correction can also involve other surgical techniques, including mastopexy (breast lift), glandular tissue resection, areolar balancing, and internal tissue release. During tuberous breast correction surgery, Dr. Craft’s goals may include:

  • Enhancing the size and shape of the breasts
  • Raising the inframammary fold
  • Lifting the position of the breasts
  • Improving breast symmetry
  • Removing any excess or abnormal tissue
  • Expanding constricted breast tissue to create a rounder appearance
  • Resizing the areolas

Who Are the Best Candidates For Tuberous Breast Correction?

If you’re unhappy with the appearance of your breasts due to tuberous breast deformity, you may be an excellent candidate for correction surgery. Ideal candidates typically:

  • Are in good overall physical health
  • Have breasts that are small, asymmetrical, constricted, or have enlarged/puffy areolas
  • Are dissatisfied with the appearance of their breasts and want a more balanced, natural look
  • Are non-smokers (or willing to quit before and after surgery)
  • Are not currently pregnant or breastfeeding
  • Have realistic expectations about the outcome

If tuberous breasts are affecting your confidence, clothing choices, or sense of femininity, surgery can provide life-changing improvements.

What to Expect on the Day of Tuberous Breast Correction Surgery

If you’re interested in tuberous breast correction, you can start the process by having a consultation with Dr. Craft. During this meeting, the doctor will discuss the procedure with you and ask about what you hope to achieve. He will answer any questions you have and work with you to create a treatment plan that suits your unique needs.

Usually, tuberous breast correction surgery is an outpatient procedure performed using regional nerve blocks and IV anesthesia. To begin, Dr. Craft will make small incisions, which will typically be placed either along the folds of the breast, around the nipple, or under the arm.

If you’re getting breast implants, the doctor will then carefully insert the customized implants either behind the breast tissue or under the chest muscle. Dr. Craft will then make any other needed adjustments to your breasts according to your treatment plan. Finally, he will close the incisions and apply bandages. Our procedure for tuberous breast correction in Phoenix usually takes between two and three hours, but in some cases, the procedure requires two separate sessions.

Tuberous Breast Correction Recovery

Although the tuberous breast correction recovery process differs from patient to patient, you’ll most likely need to rest for one to two weeks before returning to work. You may also need to wear a surgical support bra for several weeks, and it is recommended that you wait at least four to six weeks before engaging in strenuous exercise.
