Tuberous breast is a congenital condition where the breasts have an abnormal, narrow shape. The correction surgery reshapes the breasts for a fuller, more natural appearance.
Tuberous breast correction is a surgical procedure designed to address the deformities caused by underdeveloped or misformed breast tissue. This condition results in a smaller, more conical shape, often with a large areola. The surgery reshapes the tissue, enlarges the breast, and can also modify the areola for a more natural, symmetrical appearance. Many patients choose this procedure to enhance both the aesthetic and functional aspects of their breasts.
The surgery is typically performed under general anesthesia and takes 2–3 hours. Recovery is relatively quick, with most patients returning to light activities within 1–2 weeks. Depending on the individual case, breast implants may be used to achieve the desired volume, or tissue-based correction may be sufficient. After recovery, patients often experience a significant improvement in the shape and symmetry of their breasts, boosting both confidence and satisfaction.

Rhinoplasty, commonly known as a “nose job,” is a surgical procedure designed to reshape the nose for aesthetic enhancement or functional improvement. It can address concerns like:
A dorsal hump
Drooping or bulbous nasal tip
Crooked bridge
Overall facial imbalance
In many cases, rhinoplasty is also performed to improve nasal breathing, particularly when combined with correction of a deviated septum.
At our clinic, board-certified surgeons take a personalized, detail-oriented approach, analyzing each patient’s facial structure to deliver natural-looking and harmonious results.

Discussion of aesthetic goals and functional concerns
Customized surgical plan tailored to your features
General anesthesia is typically used
Hidden incisions (inside the nostrils) minimize visible scarring
The nose is reshaped (tip refined, hump reduced, bridge straightened, etc.)
If needed, internal corrections like a septoplasty are performed to enhance breathing
Surgery duration: 2–3 hours
Outpatient procedure: most patients go home the same day
Swelling and bruising peak in the first week and subside within 1–2 weeks
External splint worn for about a week
Return to light activities and office work: typically within 7–10 days
Final results: refined nasal shape settles within 12 months

Tuberous breast correction is a surgical procedure designed to reshape the breasts affected by tuberous breast deformity. This condition results in a narrow, conical breast shape with larger areolas. The procedure typically involves:
Incisions: Small, discreet cuts around the areola or under the breast to access the tissue.
Reshaping: Redistributing or reshaping the breast tissue to create a fuller, more natural shape.
Areola Reduction: Reducing the size of the areola to improve symmetry and balance.
Implant Placement: In some cases, implants are used to enhance volume and achieve the desired shape.
The goal of the surgery is to create a more natural, balanced, and proportionate breast appearance, enhancing both shape and symmetry.
A thorough examination to assess the degree of the deformity.
Discussion of surgical options, including implants or tissue-based correction.
Establishing realistic aesthetic goals and expectations.
Performed under general anesthesia.
Incisions are made discreetly around the areola or beneath the breast.
Implants may be used to add volume, or tissue reshaping is done to correct the breast shape.
Surgery duration: Approximately 2–3 hours.
Initial recovery: Most patients resume normal activities after 1–2 weeks.
Full recovery can take 3–6 months, with results becoming more apparent as healing progresses.
The cost of a facelift can vary depending on several factors, including the complexity of the procedure, the surgeon’s experience, and whether additional treatments (such as a neck lift or eyelid surgery) are performed at the same time.
Typical cost range: $7,000 – $15,000

Have questions about tuberous breast? We’ve answered the most common concerns to help you feel confident and informed before your procedure.
Anyone with narrow, underdeveloped breasts and enlarged areolas looking for improved breast shape and symmetry.
No, the incisions are typically made around the areola or under the breast, where they are discreet and heal well.
Initial results are visible immediately, but the final shape and symmetry settle in about 3–6 months.
The results are long-lasting, although factors like aging and weight changes can affect the appearance over time.
Mild to moderate discomfort is common after surgery, but it is typically manageable with prescribed pain medication.
Tuberous breast correction reshapes the tissue to improve breast shape, while breast augmentation uses implants to add volume.
Yes, tuberous breast correction can be combined with breast augmentation, lift, or other breast surgeries for enhanced results.
Risks include infection, asymmetry, scarring, or implant complications, though these are rare with proper care.
Most patients can resume light activities within 1–2 weeks, while full recovery may take 3–6 months.
Generally, it is not covered by insurance, as it is considered a cosmetic procedure unless associated with medical conditions.
