Breast augmentation can be a very effective tool to correc the tuberous breast deformity. Tuberous breasts are not simply underdeveloped breasts. Tuberous breast characteristics iclude a widened, enlarged, puffy areola unusually wide spacing between the breasts, minimal breast tissue, higher than normal breast fold, and narrow base at the chest wall.
Correction of the tuberous breast often involve placement of a breast implant, lowering of the inframmary fold, and often scorring of the breast parenchyma below the areola.
