This 24 year old patient from San Diego, California came in to meet with Dr. Pousti regarding her constricted breasts. She has tuberous (tubular) breasts deformity and wanted breast implants to correct it. Tubular breasts have a very narrow base and usually a long skin envelope. Sometimes people refer to "tubular breast" shape as the shape similar to "snoopy's nose". In the most severe cases of tubular breast, a breast lift can be done through an incision around the areola, making the breast into a more rounded shape that the patient will be happy with. In many cases however, a lift is not necessary. The patient should be aware that the final result will take months to see and that they will need to be patient. She is now about 2 months post-op correction of her tuberous breasts with 450 cc silicone gel implants made by the Mentor Corporation.
