If you are experiencing one or more of the following visual symptoms, you may have tuberous breasts:
The elongated, conical, or tubular shape of the breasts
Large or protruding nipples or "puffy" areolas (areolar herniation)
Very narrow breast base
High natural fold under the breast (inframammary fold)
Deflated breast appearance
Downward pointing nipples
Widely separated breasts
It's important to note that Tuberous Breasts are more common than most people think, and many patients may mistake them for simply having small breasts. Some surgeons may proceed with a standard breast augmentation without properly diagnosing the condition, which may not yield optimal results.
