Tuberous breasts are a congenital difference in breast development, rather than something caused by lifestyle or habits. The breast tissue and fold do not expand in the usual way, which can lead to a tighter breast base, a higher breast fold, enlarged or prominent ar**la and noticeable asymmetry between the breasts.

Surgical management is carefully tailored after a full clinical assessment. Depending on your anatomy, treatment may include releasing constricted tissue, adjusting the breast fold and using other reshaping techniques to address breast contour and proportion. In some cases, additional procedures may be discussed to manage differences between the two sides.

The photographs shown here are clinical images of one Form & Face patient and are provided for general information only. They do not represent what another person may experience. Your goals, medical history, tissue quality and healing response are unique, so a face-to-face consultation with Dr Norris is essential to determine whether surgery for tuberous breasts may be appropriate for you and to outline potential risks, benefits and alternatives.

Tuberous breast surgery is generally performed as a day procedure, taking around 1–3 hours depending on your anatomy and the techniques used. After the operation you will stay in hospital for several hours before discharge, and you must have a responsible adult collect you, as you will not be able to drive.

You will go home with:
- Detailed postoperative instructions
- A prescription for pain medication
- Waterproof dressings over your incisions

Short daily showers are usually permitted as long as dressings are carefully dried. Many patients are advised to sleep on their back with the upper body slightly elevated, and to avoid heavy lifting and upper-body strain for a period of time.

Bruising, swelling, tenderness and sensitivity are expected parts of recovery and can vary between individuals. Gentle walking is often introduced early, with a gradual return to normal activities and exercise as guided by Dr Norris. A follow-up visit is typically arranged within the first week to check your wounds and change dressings.

If you have any questions or would like to book a consultation, please reach out to our team at Form & Face.

Liposuction to the thighs can be considered for people with localised fat deposits that persist despite lifestyle measures. The aim is to reshape specific areas by removing excess fat, rather than to achieve general weight loss.

During thigh liposuction, small incisions are made, allowing a fine cannula to be used to loosen and remove fat through suction. Dressings, compression garments and structured aftercare are usually recommended to support the area while it heals.

The images shown here are of one Form & Face patient and are provided for general information only.

If you would like to discuss if liposuction to the thighs might be suitable for you, feel free to reach out to the team at Form & Face to arange a consultation.

An arm lift (brachioplasty) is a day cosmetic procedure that may be suitable for people with excess or loose skin of the upper arms, which may occur after significant weight changes or due to changes in skin elasticity.

During a consultation, Dr Norris will assess your skin quality, underlying tissue and overall health, and discuss surgical options such as removing excess tissue, reshaping the upper arm and, in some cases, combining brachioplasty with liposculpture in the surrounding areas.

If you have any questions or would like to book a consultation, please reach out to the friendly team at Form & Face.

01/02/2026

Tuberous breasts (also called constricted or hypoplastic breasts) are a congenital breast shape difference that usually becomes more noticeable during puberty. Features can include a narrow breast base, a higher breast fold, enlarged ar**la and asymmetry between the breasts.

Tuberous breast correction surgery is highly individual. It may involve releasing constricted tissue and, in some cases, using implants and/or a breast lift to address shape and proportion. The approach used will depend on your anatomy, goals, skin quality and breast tissue.

These clinical photographs show one of Dr Norris’ patients and are provided for general information only. Outcomes, recovery and suitability are different for every person. A consultation with Dr Norris is required to discuss whether tuberous breast surgery may be appropriate for you, as well as the potential risks and alternatives.

Dr Norris performs a (mammoplasty) breast reduction surgery only in a fully accredited hospital. The anaesthetist that Dr Norris works with will give you a general anaesthetic. You can expect the operation to take between three and four hours, depending on how much tissue needs to be removed.

There are a number of (mammoplasty) reduction surgery techniques. Each technique determines where the incisions and subsequent scars will be.

This will most commonly involve restricting your scar to one that encircles the ar**la (periar**lar scar) and one that passes downwards from the ar**la to the fold beneath the breast (vertical scar).

The images shown represent one patient three months after surgery. At this stage, swelling has reduced and scars are beginning to mature.

If you would like personalised advice about whether breast reduction mammoplasty may be appropriate for you, please contact Form & Face to arrange an appointment with Dr Norris.

21/01/2026

Tuberous breasts are a congenital difference in breast development that can involve a narrow breast base, a high fold and limited breast volume. The condition and its severity can vary between individuals and between each breast.

Surgery to address tuberous breasts is planned case by case. Techniques may include releasing tight tissue, reshaping the breast, adjusting the fold and ar**la, and in some situations using breast implants and/or a lift. The approach, scar pattern and recovery plan are tailored to the individual after a full assessment of breast shape, skin quality and overall health.

The photos on this tile show one patient six weeks after surgery. At this stage, the breasts are still healing.

If you're wondering whether surgery might be suitable for you, please contact Form & Face to arrange a consultation with Dr Norris for individual assessment and advice.

18/01/2026

Breast reconstruction mammoplasty can include surgery to remove and/or replace breast implants when there are implant-related concerns. These may include capsular contracture (hardening around the implant), rupture or leakage, changes in breast shape or position, asymmetry, rippling, or discomfort. Sometimes patients also seek revision when their preferences or body shape have changed over time.

The surgical plan is highly individual. Depending on your situation, options may involve removing the implant alone, removing both the implant and surrounding capsule, changing the implant pocket or plane, using a different implant, combining revision with a breast lift, or considering alternatives such as fat grafting or going flat.

If you have concerns about existing breast implants or are considering reconstruction or revision, you can contact Form & Face to arrange a consultation with Dr Norris to review your history, imaging and options in detail.

14/01/2026

Breast reduction mammoplasty is an operation that removes excess breast tissue and skin, then reshapes the remaining tissue and repositions the nipple–ar**la complex. It is often considered when very large breasts are contributing to physical symptoms or affecting day-to-day comfort.

Some people seek assessment because of issues such as:
- Neck, shoulder or back discomfort related to breast weight
- Grooves from bra straps or difficulty finding supportive garments
- Recurrent skin irritation or rashes beneath the breast fold
- Difficulty with some forms of physical activity

A consultation is needed to determine whether surgery is an appropriate option in each case. If you have any questions or would like to speak to Dr Norris, please contact our clinic.

This image shows one patient 6 months after breast reduction mammoplasty. For this individual, the breasts have had time to settle, but scar appearance can continue to change beyond this point.

08/01/2026

People who may be considered for breast reduction surgery:

- Have large, heavy breasts that interfere with daily activities or comfort
- Experience neck, shoulder, back or posture-related problems thought to be related to breast size
- Understand the risks, scars and recovery involved in having surgery
- Are at a stable and generally healthy weight
- Have realistic expectations about what surgery can and cannot achieve

Plans for future pregnancy and breastfeeding should also be discussed, as these can affect timing and decision-making. Final suitability can only be assessed in a consultation with a qualified surgeon.

For individual advice about whether breast reduction may be appropriate for you, please contact Form & Face to arrange a consultation with Dr Norris.

This image shows one example of tuberous breasts surgery (hypoplasia) at six weeks after the procedure. For this patient, early swelling has begun to settle, but breast shape, softness and scar appearance will continue to change over the coming months.

Because tuberous breasts are considered a developmental breast shape difference, some patients may be eligible for a Medicare item number and private health fund contributions toward certain costs. Eligibility depends on clinical assessment and your health insurance policy and cannot be guaranteed.

If you are concerned about tuberous breast shape and would like advice specific to your situation, please contact Form & Face so our team can help arrange a consultation with Dr Norris.
