Understanding Breast Asymmetry & Tuberous Breast Conditions

While most women have some degree of natural breast asymmetry, more pronounced differences can cause physical and emotional distress. Tuberous breast deformity is a congenital condition that presents specific challenges:

Breast Asymmetry

• Significant differences in breast size, shape, or position
• May affect nipple-areolar complex size and position
• Often becomes noticeable during adolescence
• Can be exacerbated by pregnancy, weight fluctuations, or aging
• May present alongside tuberous breast deformity

Tuberous Breast Deformity

• Congenital condition affecting approximately 5% of women
• Characterized by constricted breast base with limited development
• Often includes enlarged or puffy areolas
• Typically features minimal lower pole fullness
• May present with a high inframammary fold
• Can affect one or both breasts with varying degrees of severity
• Classified into three grades based on severity and extent of breast involvement

For Breast Asymmetry

• Fat grafting: To refine contours and add subtle volume where needed

For Tuberous Breast Correction

• Breast tissue release: To address the constricted breast base
• Lower pole expansion: To improve breast shape and contour
• Areolar reduction: To address enlarged or puffy areolas
• Breast implant placement: To increase volume and improve shape
• Inframammary fold adjustment: To correct high breast crease position
• Staged procedures: For severe cases requiring multiple interventions
