In this video, Lauren provides a very personal account of her struggles with tubular breasts. She talks about growing up with abnormal breasts, researching her condition, and searching for a surgeon who performs corrective surgery.

After many years of struggling and performing research, she found Dr. Rudderman’s website and immediately felt comfortable. She traveled from Florida to Georgia for a consultation. Her consultation solidified Dr. Rudderman’s knowledge of tubular breast correction surgery and she immediately booked her surgery.

After the surgery Lauren felt like her body was finally in harmony and that the outside finally matched the inside. Her results exceeded her expectations and she was so happy she found the right plastic surgeon for her unique condition. Lauren even goes as far as saying she cried tears of joy for many days after the surgery.

Tubular breasts or tubular breast disorder (TBD) is a condition defined by abnormal and typically asymmetric (uneven) breast shape. A different amount of breast tissue or skin is what causes the uneven shape. Tubular breasts are typically longer and narrower shaped breasts with a nipple and areola area that may look pointed, puffy, and seems to point downward or is too close to the breast crease. Tubular breast syndrome develops during puberty and does not improve over time, with weight gain or loss.

Many women do not realize that correction can often be accomplished without the need for breast implants.

Corrective surgery for tubular breasts most commonly involves:
• Elevation of the skin through incisions that may resemble a breast lift
• Repositioning of the glandular tissue and skin redraping to stabilize and improve the appearance of the breasts

If increased volume is desired, breast augmentation with implants or fat grafting (typically performed in a second surgery) may be considered.
This is a genetic condition and it is treatable, however, you must locate a plastic surgeon that specializes in this procedure.

If you elect to have corrective surgery, it’s very important to select a board-certified plastic surgeon who specializes in tubular breast disorder. Do your homework and check their credentials to ensure they have experience performing this specific type of corrective surgery. Some surgeons claim the treatment amounts to little more than breast augmentation surgery—that isn’t accurate. Study before and after photos of their patients and read testimonials and reviews if available.
