There are several other breast size and shape anomalies that may benefit from cosmetic surgery. Tuberous breasts get their name from being shaped like a tube. The base of the breast is not broad-based but rather constricted so that the breast appears more like a tube than a cone. Tuberous breasts can be changed through surgery. Lack of almost any breast development, hypoplasia, is another condition that may be a familial or congenital characteristic.
Hyperplasia is the opposite condition, i.e., the breasts are too large.
Surgeons have corrected these conditions for many years. Abnormal breast shape and size can be harmful to a woman's self esteem. It pays to know what some of the common differences in breast shape and size are. The differences are then just a matter of degrees.
