    Summary: We prove a sharp stability result concerning how close homothetic sets attaining near-equality in the Brunn-Minkowski inequality are to being convex. In particular, resolving a conjecture of Figalli and Jerison, we show there are universal constants \(C_n, d_n > 0\) such that for \(A \subset \mathbb{R}^n\) of positive measure, if \(|\frac{ A + A}{2} \backslash A| \leq d_n |A|\), then \(|\operatorname{co} (A) \backslash A| \leq C_n |\frac{ A + A}{2} \backslash A|\) for \(\operatorname{co} (A)\) the convex hull of \(A\).
