What is a double-bubble deformity, and can it be corrected?
The double-bubble can occur with women who have sagging breasts, or a sharply defined fold under the breasts. The fold is usually lowered during breast augmentation surgery, but the “old” fold may still place a crease on the lower breast, thus creating a “double bubble” contour. A mild double-bubble usually resolves with time, but may need additional surgery to improve it. A breast lift (mastopexy) may prevent or treat the problem.
