# Tuberous Breast Correction

Tuberous breast deformity is a congenital condition affecting breast development, typically identified during or after puberty when the breasts fail to develop with a normal shape. Correction is one of the more technically demanding breast procedures in plastic surgery because the surgical plan has to address several overlapping issues at once. Constricted lower pole tissue. A narrow breast base. A high inframammary fold. An enlarged or herniated areola. Volume asymmetry between the two sides. A properly planned correction addresses each of these components rather than simply adding volume, which is why implant-only approaches often produce disappointing outcomes in tuberous cases.

Dr Scott J Turner is a Specialist Plastic Surgeon (FRACS) with Sydney clinics in Bondi Junction and Manly, where he performs tuberous breast correction for patients across Sydney's Eastern Suburbs, Northern Beaches, and wider metropolitan area.
