I’m 17 and my breasts look like these. I always looked into breast aug videos but never found one specifically for my problem. I’m so thankful I found this.
Yeah I'm totally in the same situation, I'm 18 now and always waited for my breasts being a round shape and with 'normal' nipples which never happened, I guess a year ago I found out about tuberous breasts and it was a relieve to know I'm not alone. I hope I can afford a surgery some day (although I'm kinda afraid of complications tho)
Some people argue that tuberous breasts look fine, and are not deformed. Although I like that they see it that way, it is an extremely difficult thing for a woman to go through. There are no bras that will fit properly, nor will dressed for that matter, breast feeding is not an option, and it can be extremely uncomfortable with skin touching skin.
I have this condition and was able to breastfeed both of my children. But the way that they look has caused me extreme anxiety and embarrassment all of my adult life. The comments I've had have been terrible.
Some people can breast feed. I could but... my milk would come out in tiny little increments no matter what I took With a lactation consultant and all 3 kids
God I’m jealous. I’ve been wanting this surgery since I was 13 years old. I just can’t afford it. Beautiful job. She probably feels like a whole new person. I’m so happy for her.
Bridgette Lutz I’f you have insurance your insurance will cover it being that tuberous breast are considered a birth defect , I’m getting mine fixed soon
kaitlyn hancock I have Tricare Prime because my husbands in the military , we are in Texas. However I don’t think it matters what insurance or what state because a plastic surgeon told me that it’s a special code that insurances use for this procedure if you have tubular breast because it’s considered a birth defect 😇
Oh my goodness, I'm sooooooo happy for her! I just keep imaging her first look and getting tearful at how beautiful they are now. This is such a cool blessing. Her confidence had to have blown right through the roof!
I'm 16 and I've never felt comfortable with the appearance of my breasts. I just found out what tubular breasts are and realized that this is what I have.

Hi girlies. I also have tuberous breasts, and was always extremely self conscious. I'm 23 and this is the first time in my life I could afford to get this surgery done, luckily I have a good job. Mine were not as severe as this woman's (mine didn't really sag like that and my nipples werent quite as puffy, but I had close to no underboob like her). As for the changing room thing, yeah I got changed in the damn bathroom stalls with the door shut. As of now I'm about a month out from my surgery. I had 330 cc, high profile Sientra implants inserted in both breasts, through my inframammary fold (under the breasts), under the muscle. I also had fat from my lower back injected into my breasts at three different locations on each, one on the lower sides of each breast, one on the tops, and one in the inner portions of my breasts near my sternum. The fat has finally given me side boob and cleavage, I've never had either even remotely. The implants have given me a roundness I didn't think was even possible.. I see the implants dropping down and filling my lower pole more each week. This was my biggest concern, I wanted lower pole volume because I had close to none. My surgeon told me during my consult that he thinks an implant alone would have given me a nice shape but I could do the fat transfer as well if I wanted more cleavage and side boob. So of course I chose that too. Right after surgery, the lower poles were completely empty and almost hollow, because the implants were so high up on my chest. But as the weeks pass, I can see the implants dropping and my breasts are taking on a very nice shape. One thing that bothers me is that my right breast is taking longer to fill out the lower pole and drop, and it's still quite swollen on the top part of my breast.. but I can see that it's made great improvement already and continues to do so. Another thing is that my nipples are still puffy, which I didn't get 'corrected', but now that my breasts are larger and more round,my puffy nipples do not look nearly as strange and out of place. Before, I was like all nipple and no breast so now it's definitely not the case any more. My surgeon is pleased with my result but the final result will not be apparent for another few months.
Wow, I just watched another video where a different doctor was so ROUGH with a woman’s poor breast. It terrified me. I am so glad to see that- that is in fact NOT normal. This guy is so careful, it’s like watching an art form. 100% would trust this guy to put me under.
I had my tuberous breasts corrected via augmentation with silicone implants, lift, and areolar reduction over 11 years ago. Over time the areola of my breasts started to extend and puff outward. The implants also feel as though they are loose within the pocket. It would be an absolute dream to have you as my corrective surgeon. Student loan debt has made it impossible for me to get approved for financing. Your patients are blessed to have been given a new lease on their self esteem and life ❤️
Finally find the breast that looks like mine. I didn't know that i have tubular breast before thought that i was just having small breast but i always feel like my breast has very weird shape compare to other girls. Thanks for the video though the result is amazing
Since this is a congenial defect it should be covered by insurance as gender affirming care. This issue causes many women to have gender based issues. Please doctors help us like the breast cancer patients. It's not cosmetic, it's not for just having small breasts. It is a defect and very traumatic
No one will help you for free, Sweetheart. I have this too, and I feel as though the best option, both mentally and financially, is to just accept them. A man or woman that truly loves you, will not care.
I wish I could get this done. I have one of the worst cases (according to about 5 surgeons I’ve seen) but definitely can’t afford it. I’m sure she’s overjoyed! Happy for her and excellent job Doc.!
It makes me sad bc these are my breasts & they’re considered deformed. 🥺 I couldn’t get plastic surgery even if I wanted it because of my constant chronic pain.. costochondritis. I was born with enough deformities, my vag was deformed too but insurance covered the surgery. And I’m a hairy girl. 🥺 All I really like is my face.
Don't let plastic surgeons define you, after all they always look for our insecurities to make money out of it, tuberous breasts aren't deformity, vags and boobs come in all sort of shapes and forms, as far as it doesn't effect you physical pain then it shouldn't be viewed as an illness or problem, only from a beauty standards point you can let it hurt you, I have the similar issue, good thing is you can change the shape if you want to by surgery but you're beautiful in your own way, most people don't care what type of boobs you have. My bf thinks my breasts are beautiful but since I found out there is a name for my boobs, it did make me feel like a freak thanks to Google and beauty marketing.
This made me cry... I'm almost 27 and never been fully naked in front of anyone. Only recently I found out I have this deformity and I'm relieved and gutted at the same time. I don't think many surgeons will be able to fix this and of course it will be much more costly than normal augmentation. Dr Barrett, do you know any surgeon in the UK that has experience with this type of surgery? How much more expensive this typically is than typical breast augmentation?
Finding the right Dr. is extremely challenging especially with the number of online platforms and resources available. There a lot of great Dr's available. Definitely check to make sure your choice specializes in the procedure you want and spend the time to read through patient testimonials. You can always pick up the phone and call around also, find an office you feel comfortable with and set up a few consultations.
Thank you so much for taking the time to respond. I wish I lived in the US. I hope I can find a doctor who truly cares about the outcome for their patients like yourself. Greetings from the UK
I got an augmentation 2 weeks ago because of my tubular breasts. Please take the time to go to different doctors and trust your gut feeling! I went to 3 different ones because I got a bad feeling and my doctor of choice (the third) shook his head at the suggestions the others made 😳 Always ask for pictures and specifically pictures of breasts similar to yours! If they don't have many, chances are they're not knowledgeable. Also don't always trust the internet, some docs pay to be featured 'best doc' and remove negative reviews. My Doc operates mainly woman after breast cancer (reconstruction) so he is very familiar with complicated cases.
Hey I was wonder how this surgery can affect physical activity. Would you still be able to do things like sports and run afterwards? I personally play volleyball and I wouldn’t want there to be any issues if I pushed to much
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.
I’m from South Africa , so I did mine in kloof street . It was about 55k . They feel amazing look natural and feel natural . I have amazing looking breast . I’m a flasher 😌😊 Oh I tried the insurance route , they said it was cosmetic related . So cash was king .
Hello! I was wondering about the long term effects of this procedure, particularly when it comes to breast feeding. I’m in my early twenties and it has always been my dream to get this procedure done since I’ve dealt with tuberous breasts my whole life, although I was curious to know if it affects the ability to breastfeed or causes a loss of sensation in the breasts?
Dear mugen, loss of sensation is a possible complication of any surgery, but in case of breast augmentation most patients restore sensation after some time. Regarding the breastfeeding, breast augmentation does not have negative effect on it and patients are able to breastfeed. If you want more information, I suggest you to call our office
The two main types of implants are silicone and saline. The shell of the implants can be either textured (which reduces capsular contracture) or smooth. A textured implant sometimes requires a larger incision. The shape of the implant can be either round or tear drop shaped (gummy bear). Both have their advantages and disadvantages. The different types of implant offer different pros and cons. For instance, the pros of silicone implants are that they look and feel more natural and ripple less. On the other hand, the pros of saline implants are that they do not require as large of an incision as silicone, less expensive, they have less incidence of capsular contracture (scarring around the implant), one can tell immediately if there is a rupture, the size can be slightly adjusted, and they can be used for women less than 22 years of age.
Hi! I was wondering if it’s possible to do fix the tuberous breasts but without implants? I have one breast that’s completely fine and it only affects one of them. I don’t want any implants but I don’t know if that’s possible.
Tuberous breasts can rarely be corrected without implants or at least a small one. The breast needs to be scored radially from the inside to expand it. If you don't place an implant behind the radial scoring it will fall back to its original state. You could theoretically remove the implant at a later day and graft with fat but that would be a separate surgery. Feel free to contact our office for more information.
what do you think about becoming pregnant after having this surgery done? is there complications since the breast tissue is moved around during procedure?
Breast implant type and sizing selection is a complicated process and requires a detailed consultation that includes a discussion of your goals, a detailed examination, and a lengthy discussion. But the decision will always start and end with the patient. When it comes to sizing, we have all of our patients find 3 photos of their desired breast size. We ask for naked breast photos because clothing can obscure the true size (push up bras). Next, we consult with patients and go over the photos and take detailed breast measurements during a physical exam. Next, we using a sizing algorithm to determine a range of implants that will work based on the exam and the measurements. Lastly, during the operation, we use silicone sizers in the operating room to see how the size actually looks in the breast. We sit the patient up in the operating room, while asleep of course, and compare the sizer result with their desired look photos. If it is too small, we start the process over with a slightly larger implant. We don't stop until we get the perfect match. Of all of my breast augmentation patients, every one of them has been happy with their size due to this detailed and meticulous process. You don't want to invest time and money into a result that is either too big or too small. You should discuss your concerns with a board-certified plastic surgeon and make sure that your surgeon understands your goals.
hi, do you think you can correct tuberous breasts with only fat grafting as i don't wanna get surgery or implants for many reasons, i just want them to look more normal and have a rounder shape and not so saggy, will fat transfer be enough to make them at least more lifted and normal?
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.
Can you fix tuberous breasts without implants? I would never have an implant in my body. It seems so foreign and unnautral. But I would love to just fix the shape, change the tuberous and make them more round and maybe reduce nipple size. Is that possible without implants? :/

I did this back in 2018🙏🏼 BEST DECISION OF MY LIFE ❤❤❤❤ I used to cry everyday looking at my breast, feeling like a failed woman. Not sexy at all, rather disgusting. I feel so good now i can't describe. It changed my whole life. Boyfriend of ten years didn't even complain about my tuberous breast but is now the happiest man on earth😂 it changed our whole intimacy... Girls go talk about your breasts to your parents and you'll find a way together to make it better!!❤❤

@@barrettplasticsurgery thank you for the response, but what if you don't release the tight tissue and just try to fill it around with fat? To just give it a bit of fullness and correct the shape, I'm just really terrified of implants and how it will feels like, as it is an foreign object.

Tysm for this video I had no clue there was a fix I went throughout my whole life not knowing my breast were tubular until I gave birth and the nurse said oh you have tubular breast I was like wtf is that I’ve been depressed about my body ever since
For anyone curious, I had my tuberous breasts corrected in SoCal. Best decision ever. DO IT. I ONLY did an augmentation - $7,500. I opted to do the areola at another time. ZERO REGRETS.

It makes me sad bc these are my breasts & they’re considered deformed. 🥺
I couldn’t get plastic surgery even if I wanted it because of my constant chronic pain.. costochondritis. I was born with enough deformities, my vag was deformed too but insurance covered the surgery. And I’m a hairy girl. 🥺
All I really like is my face.
Don't let plastic surgeons define you, after all they always look for our insecurities to make money out of it, tuberous breasts aren't deformity, vags and boobs come in all sort of shapes and forms, as far as it doesn't effect you physical pain then it shouldn't be viewed as an illness or problem, only from a beauty standards point you can let it hurt you, I have the similar issue, good thing is you can change the shape if you want to by surgery but you're beautiful in your own way, most people don't care what type of boobs you have. My bf thinks my breasts are beautiful but since I found out there is a name for my boobs, it did make me feel like a freak thanks to Google and beauty marketing.
@@bella64276 idk it all hurts and I’m tired of pretending it doesn’t
This made me cry... I'm almost 27 and never been fully naked in front of anyone. Only recently I found out I have this deformity and I'm relieved and gutted at the same time. I don't think many surgeons will be able to fix this and of course it will be much more costly than normal augmentation. Dr Barrett, do you know any surgeon in the UK that has experience with this type of surgery? How much more expensive this typically is than typical breast augmentation?
Finding the right Dr. is extremely challenging especially with the number of online platforms and resources available. There a lot of great Dr's available. Definitely check to make sure your choice specializes in the procedure you want and spend the time to read through patient testimonials.
You can always pick up the phone and call around also, find an office you feel comfortable with and set up a few consultations.
Thank you so much for taking the time to respond. I wish I lived in the US. I hope I can find a doctor who truly cares about the outcome for their patients like yourself. Greetings from the UK
Rosina Slavova hey I was just wondering, did you go to any doctor?
I got an augmentation 2 weeks ago because of my tubular breasts. Please take the time to go to different doctors and trust your gut feeling! I went to 3 different ones because I got a bad feeling and my doctor of choice (the third) shook his head at the suggestions the others made 😳
Always ask for pictures and specifically pictures of breasts similar to yours! If they don't have many, chances are they're not knowledgeable. Also don't always trust the internet, some docs pay to be featured 'best doc' and remove negative reviews.
My Doc operates mainly woman after breast cancer (reconstruction) so he is very familiar with complicated cases.
Interesting case!
It was !!
I wish you were my surgeon! 😩
What an amazing result !
That is the typical price range for tuberous breast correction surgery in California?
What is the hight and the projection on these implants?
Hey I was wonder how this surgery can affect physical activity. Would you still be able to do things like sports and run afterwards? I personally play volleyball and I wouldn’t want there to be any issues if I pushed to much
yes, a lot of my patients are active. Even professional athletes can get breast augmentation without negative effect on their career.
Around how much does this cost usually ?
Is this over the muscle?
5 layer closure, very dedicated.
Just beautiful
Thank you!
Is it possible to do a fat transfer to the breast instead of?
I need this 😩😩 I’ll let you film! Help me out.
I like them more before than after surgery
She looks amazing! Is it possible to get this surgery without implants? Like just release the breast tissue and then the areola reduction?
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.
Dr. Barrett,
With the same severity of condition and smaller implants, is there any way to make the areolas smaller than this?
yes, generally speaking, you can reduce the size of areolas during surgery.
I’m excited, tomorrow I get mine done . Whoop whoop
That’s great!
How much did it cost you? :0 and did your insurance cover any of it? I really want to get it done.
I’m from South Africa , so I did mine in kloof street . It was about 55k . They feel amazing look natural and feel natural . I have amazing looking breast . I’m a flasher 😌😊
Oh I tried the insurance route , they said it was cosmetic related . So cash was king .
Could having tuberous breasts have anything to do with minimal nipple sensation, due to it being damaged tissue from herniation?
How much would this cost is one already has saline implants?
for more information regarding the cost, please follow the link www.drdanielbarrett.com/virtual-consultation/
Hello! I was wondering about the long term effects of this procedure, particularly when it comes to breast feeding. I’m in my early twenties and it has always been my dream to get this procedure done since I’ve dealt with tuberous breasts my whole life, although I was curious to know if it affects the ability to breastfeed or causes a loss of sensation in the breasts?
Dear mugen,
loss of sensation is a possible complication of any surgery, but in case of breast augmentation most patients restore sensation after some time. Regarding the breastfeeding, breast augmentation does not have negative effect on it and patients are able to breastfeed. If you want more information, I suggest you to call our office
I was wondering if the after shot was right after surgery, if so do the implants drop after some time??
in most cases it takes up to half a year for implants to fully settle after surgery.
Gorgeous A1 doctor
Dude, I am 23. I so want to get it done!!
Was this done with silicone or saline? Which would be the drawbacks of choosing saline for tuberous breast correction?
The two main types of implants are silicone and saline. The shell of the implants can be either textured (which reduces capsular contracture) or smooth. A textured implant sometimes requires a larger incision. The shape of the implant can be either round or tear drop shaped (gummy bear). Both have their advantages and disadvantages. The different types of implant offer different pros and cons. For instance, the pros of silicone implants are that they look and feel more natural and ripple less. On the other hand, the pros of saline implants are that they do not require as large of an incision as silicone, less expensive, they have less incidence of capsular contracture (scarring around the implant), one can tell immediately if there is a rupture, the size can be slightly adjusted, and they can be used for women less than 22 years of age.
@@barrettplasticsurgery Thank you lots!!
Hi! I was wondering if it’s possible to do fix the tuberous breasts but without implants? I have one breast that’s completely fine and it only affects one of them. I don’t want any implants but I don’t know if that’s possible.
Tuberous breasts can rarely be corrected without implants or at least a small one. The breast needs to be scored radially from the inside to expand it. If you don't place an implant behind the radial scoring it will fall back to its original state. You could theoretically remove the implant at a later day and graft with fat but that would be a separate surgery. Feel free to contact our office for more information.
Dr. Barrett Plastic Surgery thank you!
what do you think about becoming pregnant after having this surgery done? is there complications since the breast tissue is moved around during procedure?
every breast surgery can affect breastfeeding. But in most cases patients are able to breastfeed.
Can i ask a question? If this patient decided to get bigger implant .for example, 500 cc or 600 cc is that possible?? If not can you explain why ?
Breast implant type and sizing selection is a complicated process and requires a detailed consultation that includes a discussion of your goals, a detailed examination, and a lengthy discussion. But the decision will always start and end with the patient.
When it comes to sizing, we have all of our patients find 3 photos of their desired breast size. We ask for naked breast photos because clothing can obscure the true size (push up bras). Next, we consult with patients and go over the photos and take detailed breast measurements during a physical exam. Next, we using a sizing algorithm to determine a range of implants that will work based on the exam and the measurements.
Lastly, during the operation, we use silicone sizers in the operating room to see how the size actually looks in the breast. We sit the patient up in the operating room, while asleep of course, and compare the sizer result with their desired look photos. If it is too small, we start the process over with a slightly larger implant. We don't stop until we get the perfect match.
Of all of my breast augmentation patients, every one of them has been happy with their size due to this detailed and meticulous process. You don't want to invest time and money into a result that is either too big or too small.
You should discuss your concerns with a board-certified plastic surgeon and make sure that your surgeon understands your goals.
@@barrettplasticsurgery thank you so much 🥺 you are the best
hi, do you think you can correct tuberous breasts with only fat grafting as i don't wanna get surgery or implants for many reasons, i just want them to look more normal and have a rounder shape and not so saggy, will fat transfer be enough to make them at least more lifted and normal?

After the breast surgery can still come out no?
No i don't think cuz the areola is smaller
Hello Dr. Was the implants subglandular or intramuscular?
under the muscle.
@@barrettplasticsurgery also Dr. For tubular breasts is it better if the implants sit under the muscle or sub glandular?
Can you fix tuberous breasts without implants? I would never have an implant in my body. It seems so foreign and unnautral. But I would love to just fix the shape, change the tuberous and make them more round and maybe reduce nipple size. Is that possible without implants? :/

I did this back in 2018🙏🏼 BEST DECISION OF MY LIFE ❤❤❤❤ I used to cry everyday looking at my breast, feeling like a failed woman. Not sexy at all, rather disgusting. I feel so good now i can't describe. It changed my whole life. Boyfriend of ten years didn't even complain about my tuberous breast but is now the happiest man on earth😂 it changed our whole intimacy...

@@barrettplasticsurgery thank you for the response, but what if you don't release the tight tissue and just try to fill it around with fat? To just give it a bit of fullness and correct the shape, I'm just really terrified of implants and how it will feels like, as it is an foreign object.
But doctor.. is there any way to fix tubular breast, mild ones without breast implants and a fat graft instead??
