Article Abstract

Tuberous breasts are defined by a shape anomaly, in certain relatively rare situations, patients are satisfied with the volume and only ask for a shape correction without increase or decrease. They may also be very young girls in whom the indication for implantation of a prosthesis could be premature or who do not have sufficient fat reserves for fat transfer. We discuss the different possible techniques and we propose a simple technique, relatively fast, easily reproducible whatever the experience of the surgeon, without vascular complications in our experience due to the absence of skin detachment, with a satisfactory and stable result in the time. The authors are based on a series of 12 patients operated between 2000 and 2021.
