Tuberous Breast Deformity Correction (Hypoplasia)
The tuberous breast is a developmental deformity of breast shape. It causes a pointy, narrow breast with a constricted narrow base and large puffy areolar. The areolar deformity is due to breast tissue which has “herniated” or grown into the areola. The condition is often uneven from side to side with differences in breast size and severity of the deformity from side to side.
Tuberous breast deformity is classified by three grades:
One: mainly in the inferomedial (lower inner) quadrant
Two: in the two inferior (lower) quadrants, and
Three: affecting the whole breast.
Generally, those affected with this type of breast deformity are highly motivated to have it corrected.
