Detailed Information & Candidates

Tuberous Breast Correction

What is Tuberous Breast Deformity?

A congenital condition characterized by narrow, constricted breasts with underdeveloped lower tissue, a high inframammary fold, large puffy areolas, and potential asymmetry.

Ideal Candidates:

✔ Women with underdeveloped or asymmetrical breasts

✔ Individuals with realistic expectations

✔ Non-smokers in good overall health

Poland Syndrome Correction

What is Poland Syndrome?

A rare congenital condition where one side of the chest shows underdevelopment or absence of the pectoral muscle, often affecting breast development, nipple-areola complex, and sometimes accompanied by rib or hand anomalies.

Ideal Candidates:

✔ Individuals with chest and breast asymmetry due to muscle deficiency

✔ Patients in good health with stable weight

✔ Non-smokers with realistic expectations

Breast Asymmetry Surgery

What is Breast Asymmetry?

A condition in which one breast is noticeably different in size, shape, or position compared to the other. It may result from hormonal changes, weight fluctuations, or previous surgeries.

Ideal Candidates:

✔ Women with visible differences in breast size or shape

✔ Those seeking natural, balanced breasts

✔ Individuals in good health with realistic goals

Inverted Nipple Correction

What is an Inverted Nipple?

A condition where the nipple is retracted inward instead of projecting outward. It can be congenital or result from scarring, breastfeeding, or aging.

Ideal Candidates:

✔ Individuals with one or both inverted nipples

✔ Those desiring improved nipple projection for aesthetic or functional reasons

Benefits of These Procedures
✔ Improve overall breast and chest symmetry

✔ Enhance aesthetic appearance and boost self-esteem

✔ Relieve functional issues like discomfort or difficulty breastfeeding

✔ Offer permanent results with modern, minimally invasive techniques

✔ Can be combined with other corrective procedures for comprehensive outcomes
