Tuberous Breast Correction Before & Afters
About Tuberous Breast
Tuberous or tubular breasts are a particular form of breasts that can occur at birth or during puberty.
At Plastic Surgery Associates of Santa Rosa, our board-certified plastic surgeons, Dr. Francisco Canales, Dr. Heather Furnas, and Dr. Culbertson, have helped hundreds of women with tuberous breast correction in Northern California so they could attain a normal and full breast contour. In addition, we offer nipple correction surgery, which is almost always a part of Tuberous Breast Correction. At our Santa Rosa practice, our goal is to deliver beautiful results while treating you as a friend or family member rather than just as a patient. Our Santa Rosa patients choose this correction procedure to increase their confidence and achieve a rounder, more natural breast shape. Call our office in Santa Rosa, California today to schedule a private consult.
What to Expect
Here’s what to expect with a correction procedure.
AFTER THE TREATMENT
Most women can return to their regular routines within 1 – 2 weeks. Some women are ready to return to work in just a few days. Results provide attractively shaped, natural-looking breasts, areolas, and nipples that are beautifully proportioned and the correct size for the individual woman’s anatomy.
RESULTS
In some severe tuberous breast deformities, the results will be a much improved breast shape but we may not be able to give you the perfect breast. Our doctors will review what realistic expectations you can have given your particular anatomy.

Ideal candidates are generally in overall good health and are past childbearing and breastfeeding.
How It Works
Surgical Technique
Discover more about our correction technique.
The purpose of the surgery is to reshape tuberous breasts, which usually have a narrow base with breast tissue that may appear constricted. The areola and sometimes the nipple is very large, and the area where the breast is attached to the chest wall (the inframammary fold) is exceptionally high. A nipple that protrudes or an inverted nipple that points inward can also be corrected, usually as an isolated procedure under local anesthesia. Tuberous breast correction is typically performed under a light general anesthesia. We will make an internal incision to release the tight breast tissues, making a larger space for an implant, rounding out the lower breast crease, and correcting enlarged and protruding areola and nipples.

"The results have been huge for my self-esteem and my self-image. I can now move my body in ways I couldn’t before with the loose skin I had after my weight loss. I love my body now. I love myself. Before I’d wear baggy clothes, and now I wear clothes that fit. For the first time in 20 years, I have a flat stomach. I’m so proud of the results.

Frequently Asked Questions
The cost of tuberous breast correction will depend on your unique treatment plan. Every woman’s body is different, which requires an individual approach. Once Dr. Canales, Dr. Furnas, or Dr. Culbertson have sat down with you to review your condition and concerns, they will create a custom treatment plan and go over your costs.
Many women opt to combine a secondary procedure with their tuberous breast correction surgery. Most of the time, nipple correction is included, but a breast lift or breast augmentation can also be a part of your treatment plan if you desire. During your consultation, it’s important to talk about all your cosmetic goals so we can create a cosmetic plan that is right for you.
The results of tuberous breast correction are long-lasting, and many patients only need one correction surgery. However, if a breast augmentation with implants is included, then the implants may need to be replaced at some point to maintain optimal results. Breast implants generally last for 10 – 15 years. It’s also important to maintain a healthy diet as weight gain can alter results.
Most woman can return to their usual routine in a few weeks, but we recommend that you refrain from strenuous activity until you are
