Tubular Breast Correction on Long Island & in Manhattan
You can restore natural breast shape and confidence with tubular breast correction on Long Island and in Manhattan. Dr. Arnold Breitbart, a double board-certified plastic surgeon with more than 30 years of experience, provides advanced, natural-looking correction for this common developmental condition.
Understanding Tubular Breasts
Tubular (or tuberous) breasts are a congenital condition that develops during puberty when the breast tissue fails to expand properly. The tissue doesn’t fully develop outward or downward. A tight band at the base restricts normal rounding, and this constriction causes a narrow, tube-like shape and puffy areolas. One breast may sit higher or be smaller than the other.
While this condition doesn't pose a health risk, it often causes emotional distress, body image concerns, and difficulty finding properly fitting clothing. Some women with tubular breasts find breastfeeding challenging, too.
Dr. Breitbart specializes in creating balanced, aesthetically pleasing breast shape and size through personalized tubular breast correction surgery.
The Surgical Approach
Tubular breast correction typically involves a combination of surgical techniques to reshape the breast and achieve symmetry. During surgery, Dr. Breitbart releases the constricted tissue, meaning he carefully loosens it to allow the breast to expand for natural rounding.
Depending on the patient’s needs, the procedure may also include:
- A breast augmentation with implants to restore volume and projection
- Areolar reduction to correct enlarged or puffy areolas
- A breast lift (mastopexy) to improve nipple position and overall breast contour
Dr. Breitbart performs each step with meticulous attention to proportion and balance, ensuring results that look naturally feminine and symmetrical.
Recovery and Results
Patients can expect mild soreness and swelling for the first few days following surgery. Most return to work within a week and resume full physical activity in four to six weeks.
Dr. Breitbart provides detailed aftercare instructions to promote healing and minimize visible scarring. As swelling subsides, the final results reveal softer, rounder breasts with improved symmetry and shape. Many patients describe a significant boost in confidence and comfort with their appearance and clothing fit.
